    The input power and ground are also shown on the RA0002 device on terminals VDC and GND. Fig. 2.1: RA0002: power supply through DB15 connector When the RA0002 module is attached both to the Ion reader and to an external power supply, the following condition must be fulfilled: RA0002 Power Supply ≥...
  • Page 11: Startup

    Warning: During the boot process, a device connected to the RA0002 outputs may have particular behaviour: for example, an alarm sounder connected to RA0002 (like in the example n.1 of Connect an Alarm Sounder to RA0002 pag. 22) will be active and sound during the boot process. If you want it to be turned off during the boot process simply connect the alarm sounder to GPO2 or GPO3 or connect the alarm sounder like in the example n.2 of Connect an Alarm...

  • Page 16: Safety Output System

    The output current of 4 outputs GPO0, GPO1, GPO2, GPO3 is limited by 4 resettable fuses (0.75 A). For the fuses response time, see the following figure: Fig. 2.10: Response time of resettable fuse The fuse properly restores its functionality once the current returns below the threshold level.
