Terminals & Pin-out Location, Alarm Card 100350
DC power systems using the Alarm & Signal Interface Card
have following alarm outputs and monitoring inputs available: 6 alarm relay outputs, 4 digital
inputs, 3 symmetry alarm inputs and 1 temperature sense input.
For detailed information about the card's pin-out location and terminal block connections,
refer to the figure in this section.
The figure shows the position of the relay
contacts when the PS system is in its alarm
mode of operation. The relay coils are then
de-energized (fail-safe mode). The relay
outputs are preprogrammed from factory
(Factory Settings).

Quick Start Guide Flatpack PS System
The alarm outputs in Flatpack systems use the Fail-
Safe Operation Mode (relay coils energized in the
+
system's normal operation mode). When the system is
—
in alarm mode, the alarm relay coils are de-energized.
