Auxiliary (AUX) inputs
The two AUX inputs on the OmniTrax processor are voltage sensing inputs (see Figure 155:). The
processor determines an input’s status by comparing the input’s voltage with the defined state’s
voltage ranges (based on an internal reference voltage, and the configuration of the connected
contact closures and supervision resistors). Input contact closures MUST be voltage-free. You
9 Resistor 2 - available when dual resistor
supervision is selected
10 Noise Tolerance (default = 40 mV) - set this
parameter to compensate for noisy input wiring
(0, 20, 40, 60, 80, 100 mV)
available with single/dual resistor supervision
11 Line Drop (default = 0) - set this parameter to
compensate for the voltage drop on long or high
resistance input wiring (0, 20, 40, 60 mV)
available with single/dual resistor supervision
12 Filter Window (default = 250 ms) - time for which
an input must remain active before an event is
declared (0 to 2.5 seconds in 125 ms increments)
13 Output Configuration section
The output configuration parameters listed below
each selected output apply only to the selected
output. First you select an output, then you
configure that output’s parameters (outputs 1, 2,
3, 4 on OmniTrax processor; outputs Opt1 to
Opt8 on ROC card).
14 Output selection arrows - click on the arrows to
scroll through and select the available outputs
The default setting for each parameter is
indicated beside the parameter selection drop
down
Applicable Range is displayed beside the
parameter selection drop down
15 Relay Activation (selectable for remote control
mode) default = latching (steady ON)
latching - relay is activated and deactivated by
commands from the host computer
flash mode - relay activates ON/OFF/ON/OFF...
continuously in response to a command from the
host computer; relay deactivates in response to a
command from the host computer
pulse - relay activates for a period, then
deactivates, in response to a command from the
host computer
16 Hold/Active Time (default = 2 sec.) - selectable
for local control mode (relay remains active for
the duration of an event or for the specified Hold/
Active Time, whichever is longer)
selectable for flash or pulse type relay activation
in remote control mode (relay remains active for
the specified time)
(from 0 to 2.5 seconds in 125 ms increments)
17 Inactive Time - selectable for flash type relay
activation in remote control mode (relay remains
inactive for the specified time)
(from 0 to 2.5 seconds in 125 ms increments)
18 Local Aux Control Activation - user
configurable relay activation conditions for local
control mode
select the check box beside a parameter to have
that relay activate when the condition occurs
19 Zone Alarm - specify a relay which will activate in response to a sensor alarm condition in a configured
zone (the Zone Alarm is configured in the Segment Settings section of the Cable Side Cfig tab)
20 user selectable Local Aux Control Activation conditions
Zone Alarm - response is configured in the Segment Settings under the Cable Side Cfig tab
Cable A Supervision - specified relay activates to signal a Cable A Supervision alarm
Cable B Supervision - specified relay activates to signal a Cable B Supervision alarm
Enclosure Tamper - specified relay activates to signal an Enclosure Tamper condition (door opened)
Input Power Fail
- specified relay activates to signal the DC input power has failed
Battery Fail - specified relay activates to signal the battery voltage is below the operational level
Misc Hardware Faults - - specified relay activates to signal an internal hardware fault has been detected
Fail Safe - specified relay activates to signal all input power has failed and the processor is not operational
