10.2 MODULE REMOVAL
10.2.1 GENERAL
Modules should only be unplugged and plugged in with both the Mains off and the
battery disconnected. Faulty modules should be replaced by good ones at the earliest
possible time. Should a spare module not be available at the time a module is
diagnosed as faulty and removed, it is possible to reconnect the other modules and run
the system with a module missing. The FIP must be told which of its modules are
missing to assign the correct inputs/outputs to the modules which are present.
WARNING
Suitable precautions should be made to check for fire in any unprotected areas, and to
manually operate ancillary equipment which would otherwise be automatically operated.
NOTE
When fitting modules ensure that the single screw which connects the module to the
cardframe (FP0551) or the cabinet (FP0550) is fitted firmly, as it earths the module.
10.2.2 CONFIGURATION
On power up with a module removed, the Brigade Standby relay remains de-energised,
the FIP does not process input/outputs and the System Fault LED turns on.
Pressing "RECALL" "7" will display the appropriate fault message.
From the base display (totals) press "SET" "5" to view both modules configured and
present e.g. "relay = 1/0" implies that one 8RM is configured, but none are plugged in.
Press "ENTER" then cursor along to the module which has been removed. Press "Ù" to
toggle between P (present) and N (not present). Press "ACK" to save the correct
temporary configuration. The F3200 then checks the temporary configuration is correct
and prompts the operator to press "Ack" to confirm the temporary configuration.
Subsequently the Standby relay energises but the System Fault LED remains on.
WARNING
If the FRCs to the Controller/Display are unplugged they must be replugged in with
care. The FRC from the MAF must only be plugged into the lowest connector (J14 I/O
Bus OUT). The FRC from a LED Display must only be plugged into the top connector
(J13 LED Display).
Swapping these may cause damage to the electronics.
