  • Page 10: Description Of Function

    Function 3.2 Description of function The RCMA421H-DCB runs a device test when the power supply voltage is con- nected. During the start-up phase, the TRP LED lights up and the alarm relay switches to the alarm setting. Once the device test has been completed suc- cessfully, the ERR alarm LED will stop flashing, the TPD LED will go out and the alarm relay will return to the normal setting.
  • Page 11: Quick Query Of The Rated Residual Operating Current

    Function alarm LED will flash (error codes E.01 or E.03). Once the error has been elimi- nated, the alarm LEDs and the alarm relay will remain in the alarm state. Press- ing the Reset button R or sending a RESET command via the RS-485 interface will switch K2 back to its initial state and the alarm LEDs will go out.
  • Page 12: Malfunction

    This interface provides the device with a means of communicating with an alarm indicator and test combination (e.g. MK2430). The ability to output up- to-date measured values and alarms is just one of the features supported. Test and reset commands can be sent to the RCMA421H-DCB from the MK2430.
