1260-112 User Manual Chapter 2 INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS 1. Remove the 1260-112 module and inspect it for damage. If any Unpacking and damage is apparent, inform the carrier immediately. Retain Inspection shipping carton and packing material for the carrier’s inspection. 2. Verify that the pieces in the package you received contain the correct 1260-112 module option and the 1260-112 Users Manual.
Installation of the 1260-112 Switching Module into a 1260-100 Installation Carrier assembly is described in the Installation section of the 1260-100 Adapt-a-Switch Carrier Manual. The 1260-112 is a 20-channel, two-wire plug-in for the Adapt-a- Module Switch Series. Its relay architecture permits it to be organized via Configuration software into any configuration from twenty DPDTs to one 20PDT, or any combination in between.
P/N 990899. The 160-Pin Cable Assembly uses 24 AWG cable with crimp pins to mate with the 1260-112. The other cable end is unterminated. Refer to Table 2-1 for channel-to-pin mapping information. Installation Instructions 2-8 EADS North America Defense Test and Services, Inc.
1 through 12, inclusive. The module address assigned to the 1260-112 depends on the carrier slot into which the 1260-112 is inserted, and on the position of the logical address DIP switch on the carrier side panel. The switch has two settings: •...
For instructions on setting module addresses for a conventional 1260-Series module, see the label on the side panel of the module. The 1260-112 may be operated either in message-based mode or Operating Modes in register-based mode. In the message-based mode, the 1260-01T switch controller...
1260-112 module. The 1260-01T command module does not monitor these operations, and does not keep track of the relay states on the 1260-112 module in this mode. A conceptual view of the register-based mode is shown in Figure 3-2 below.
