MONITOR RACKS
There are several module types, including:
• Monitor Modules, Rack Interface Module (RIM), Keyphasor Modules
• Relays, Communication Gateways, Power Supplies
Some of the features of Input/Output Modules (I/O) include:
• Recorder outputs
• Transducer Selection
• Data Manager Interfacing, Serial Interfacing, etc.
There are two styles of 3500 Monitor Rack:
• A Standard rack accepts single transducer inputs for each monitored point
• A Triple Modular Redundant (TMR) accepts three separate inputs, or a single input 'bussed' to three monitors for each monitored point
Two different types of communications interfacing are used with the 3500:
• RS232/422 Interfacing (BNC proprietary) to the Rack Interface Module
• RS232/422/485 Modbus interfacing to the Communication Gateway module
The 3500 Monitor Rack accepts two types of signal connections:
• Internal terminations
• External terminations
