Physical Description M6100 Broadcast Satellite Modulator
7.2.4 Alarm Interface
The alarm interface can be used to build up device redundancy switching systems.
When using the AZ202 Universal Redundancy Switch it is not mandatory to use alarm
contacts. The Universal Redundancy Switch can also gather the alarm status from the
different pieces of equipment in the setup over the management interface. To enable
device redundancy please refer to section: DeviceRedundancyonpage107
Connect the alarm interfaces.
The contacts are normally closed to insure that an alarm is generated when the alarm cables are
removed.
