Page 7 RCI-200 Connections: The RCI-200 is the main board of an RCI-200-XXX Telemetry system. It provides the input and output signal connections as well as the power supply for the unit. A separate communications board is added to the RCI-200 to allow it to communicate with other units. This communications board may have its own configuration that is in a separate section of this manual.
Page 8 Inputs: The RCI-200 has two dry contact inputs and two 0-20mA inputs. The dry contact inputs are excited with 24VDC and will source approximately 20mA when the contact is closed. A red LED lights up when a contact input is closed.
Page 9 Outputs: The RCI-200 has two form ‘C’ relay contact outputs and two 0-20mA analog outputs. The relay contacts are capable of switching 120VAC, 10A or 240VAC, 6A. An energy absorbing varistor is installed across each contact to limit switching transients. A third relay contact acts as a communications fail indicator.
Page 10 RCI-200 Configuration: The RCI-200 requires no configuration other than for its communication fail operation. In the event of a communications failure on the communications board, the RCI-200 can be set up to take various actions on its outputs. This may be desirable in order to place connected devices into a safe operating mode.
Page 11 RFM Communication Option: The -RFM communications option to the RCI series utilizes license-free spread spectrum radio frequency transmissions to exchange the signal data between a host and its remote(s). There are two Modes of Operation available: 1) Standard mode and 2) Repeater mode. In the Standard mode of operation, the host unit communicates directly with all remotes.
Page 12 All radio configurations are done via two banks of DIPswitches. SW1 assigns the remote address from 1 to 200 using a binary encoding scheme. assigns the Topology, Network ID, Channel Numbers and Host/Remote Mode. The switches are located on the communications board just below the radio.
Page 13 Next, set the number of channels of the host using SW2-3, -4. SW2-3 SW2-4 Channels on Host An RCI-200 can at most have 2 channels. This is the number of DOWN channels that will be exchanged between the host and each remote.
