information from the new module, the warning signal will be
cleared, the module status is set to attached.
If the configuration locked is false, then:
• Detection of error changes the status of a module (and channels) to
failed. A system RPM failed alarm signal is asserted.
• Removal of a module from system changes the module and
associated channels status to invalid. The module and its channels
configuration are deleted. Any warning or alarm signals posted due
to this module and its channels are de-asserted. The information of
the module and its channels disappear from the system.
Voltage Modules Voltage Monitor Module (VTM) is an RPM module that used to
measure DC voltage. Each module has six measuring channels used to
measure external voltage, based on the range of the module in use, and
one external temperature channel. You can configure the module and
channels description which is a text string. You can also configure the
channels unit (normally Volt for voltage channels; and C or F for
temperature channel). For voltage channels, you can enter the offset,
factor value which will be used in computing the final value of the
channels reading. The final value is computed as: fin_val = (cal_val -
offset) * scale where fin_val is final value, cal_val is calibrated reading
value. The default value for offset is 0, and 1.0 for scale.
In some cases you can use a voltage channel and User Define Events
(UDE) to simulate a Binary channel. For hardware configuration, please
refer to the Remote Peripheral Monitor system manual, section “Using
Voltage Channel as Binary channel”. The next example describes the
software configuration.
This example is for the case where there is only one threshold for both
TRUE and FALSE. Assume that the user want to use the reading from
channel 1 of module address 02 to generate a TRUE/FALSE state. Issue
the command:
** ADD UDE
to add a new UDE, expect to see: Uxxxx, where xxxx is the UDE
number (for example 0003).
** CHA U0003,PRG=“C102 VAL > 3.1"
