Tyco Electronics Galaxy SC Controller J85501F-1
3 - 48 Installation Issue 13 February 2001
7. Once they have been energized, the modules will begin their
initialization sequence. This will take some time, depending on the
number of modules equipped in the system. During initialization,
Galaxy automatically senses and adds module and channel objects
to the system. A rapid flashing green LED on the front of a module
indicates that it is still being initialized. This LED will become a
steady green, with an occasional short inactive period after
initialization is complete.
8. Following initialization, configure the monitored channels within
Galaxy, using either EasyView or T1.317 commands. EasyView
menu paths are shown here. Refer to Section 6 and Appendices A
and B for information on T1.317 commands.
Configure → Monitoring → Shunt Channels / Temperature Channels /
Voltage Channels / Binary Channels / Control Relay Channels
Use this path to the appropriate channel type. For Shunt Channels, the
Channel Description (optional), Shunt Current (full scale) and Shunt
Voltage (mV) fields must be configured. For Voltage Channels, the
Channel Description and optionally Scale Factor and Offset fields need
configuration. Temperature Channels and Binary Channels need only
the Channel Description field completed. Control Relay Channels also
need the Program Line field completed to control their state.
Note the Channel Identification Number while completing these
configurations if it is desired to operate a User Defined channel based
on upper and/or lower limits on the values of these channels or if they
will be included in any Derived channel program lines. An example of
setting upper and lower thresholds for a Shunt Channel using a User
Defined Channel follows:
Configure → Alarms → User Defined is the path. First choose the “Add
User Event” button, then “Modify”. Fill in the Description, Severity,
LED, Relay, Latched Alarm and Call Out fields as necessary. The
following program line will activate this alarm when Shunt Channel
C204 (perhaps a BDFB load) is not within its acceptable “window” of 5
to 150 amps:
(C204 VAL < 5) | (C204 VAL > 150)
Note: | is the “pipe” symbol and designates “or” in this program line.
