uses this data to verify that the outputs are correct. Each bit
corresponds to one output; a logic one indicates an active (on)
output, a logic zero indicates an inactive (off) output.
Status data is an eight-bit data value that identifies the I/O
module and indicates the default values set by the analog out-
put default jumpers. The controller reads the identification
bits (four MSB) to verify the I/O expander bus communication
integrity and controller configuration. It reads the default bits
(four LSB) to determine the default states set for the analog
outputs in the event of a time-out.
Logic power (+5 VDC and ±15 VDC) drives the I/O module cir-
cuits. It connects through the top 12-pin card edge connector
(P1) shown in Figure 2-1. P3 supplies +24 VDC to operate the
analog output circuits.
The bus fault timer is a one-shot timer that is reset by the I/O
expander bus clock; the controller generates the bus clock. If
the bus clock stops (indicating a controller error), the bus fault
timer times out in 10 milliseconds. This will disable the digital
outputs and set the analog outputs to their default values (set
by jumpers). A red front panel status LED indicates a bus fault
time-out.
Two front panel I/O module status LED indicators show the
operating state of the I/O modules. Circuits on the I/O module
determine the module status and light the appropriate LED.
