MultiSmart Boards
The MultiSmart pump station manager has up to four boards plugged into it depending on the application.
The most common configuration is shown below.
Pump Control I/O Board (3PC) - The pump control board monitors the single or 3-phase supply and
provides digital and analog I/O. Level sensing can be from a MultiTrode conductive probe or any 4-20mA
device (e.g., pressure transducer, ultrasonic device). Pump faults can be contact closures or pump specific
inputs such as seal, PTC thermistor or Flygt FLS and CLS. Digital outputs drive the pump contactors. (I/O =
20 x DIN, 2 x AIN, 7 x DOUT, 1 x AOUT.)
CPU Board - Houses the microprocessor running the MultiSmart unit, provides one Ethernet and three serial
and communications ports, connects to the display, and has a compact flash card port.
WARNING:
BEFORE REMOVING THE COMPACT FLASH CARD, YOU MUST PRESS THE YELLOW SAVE CF DATA
BUTTON. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY CAUSE CORRUPTION OF DATA OR DAMAGE TO THE FLASH CARD.
WARNING:
THE DIGITAL INPUTS ARE VOLT-FREE INPUTS. DO NOT APPLY ANY SOURCING VOLTAGE TO THEM.
DSP Board
This board handles the I/O and communicates between multiple I/O Module modules.
Energy Monitoring and Motor Protection (3MP)
Monitors single or 3-phase motor currents direct from a CT, and provides motor protection, power
monitoring, and includes datalogging.
resistance test of the motor windings. (I/O = 9 x IIN, 3 x IRT, 3 x AOUT, 5 x DOUT.).

Questions and answers
I have four pumps connected to my multi smart. One jockey and three that rotate with the jockey as needed. My problem is that the jockey pump always shows its running even when it isn't running. the other pumps show actuate run times and starts. only the main pump shows continuous run even when it is turned off. I was wondering if there any advice I could be given to resolve this issue.
The MultiTrode MultiSmart may show the jockey pump as continuously running even when it is turned off due to the "External Run" status. This occurs if the pump is started by an external control method, such as a manual override switch, where the contactor remains closed but no run command was sent by the controller. As a result, the system continues updating run time statistics and generating relevant faults or warnings. Checking for an external control signal or a stuck contactor may help resolve the issue.
