to program the U0003 state to TRUE if the reading of channel 1, module
2 is greater than 3.1 (the threshold); otherwise the state is FALSE.
Remember that an UDE is an alarm, so user can program its severity,
dial out, ... The alarm is active when the UDE state is TRUE.
Shunt Modules and
Channels
Shunt Monitor Module (SHM) is an RPM module that used to measure
DC current. Each module has six measuring channels used to measure
external voltage (-50 to +150mV ± 0.55mV) and, by using the shunt
size, to derive the current, plus one external temperature channel. You
can configure the module and channels description which is a text string.
For shunt channels, you can enter the current shunt (sh_i) and voltage
shunt (sh_v) value which will be used in computing the final value of the
channels reading. The final value is computed as: fin_val = (cal_val *
sh_i)/sh_v where fin_val is final value, cal_val is calibrated reading
value. The default value for sh_i and sh_v is 1.0.
Temperature
Modules and
Channels
The 223T module has seven channels to measure temperature at seven
different points in the system. Each channel must be connected to a
100K thermal probe (Thermistor comcode 407209808). This RPM
module can measure temperature within the range of -40°C (-40°F) to
70°C (158°F), with a tolerance of ±1°C (±0.55°F). Current limiting
resistors are not required for connections to the thermal probes. You can
configure the module and channels description, which is a text string.
Binary Modules
and Channels
Binary Monitor Module (BIM) is an RPM module that monitors the
external dc voltage and results in an ON (Open) or OFF (Closed) state.
If the voltage level is greater than 3.1V, the channel state is ON (Open).
The state is OFF (Closed) if the voltage level is less than 1.9V. The
channel state is undetermined if the voltage level is between 1.9 and
3.1V, so effort should be made when designing and wiring Binary
channel circuits to avoid this range. Each module has six measuring
channels used to monitor external voltage, and one external temperature
channel. You can configure the module and channel descriptions in a
text string.
Control Relay
Modules and
Channels
Control Relay Module (CRM) is an RPM module with three Form-C
relays as output devices. For each relay, you can enter a program line to
control the state of the relay. If the program line is evaluated to TRUE,
then the relay will be turned ON. The relay state will be OFF otherwise.
Please consult the section on User Defined Events for details on the
expression operands and operators. You can also configure the module
and channel descriptions (a text string) to describe the relay usage.
