General 1.1 DESCRIPTION The Eberle Design Model 242E is a dual channel DC Isolator unit designed to meet Caltrans specifications TSCES 1989, and TEES August 2002 Chapter 1. The isolator unit occupies one position of a 170 standard input file. The isolator unit card incorporates a double-sided 44 pin edge connector for the connection of power, input, and output signals.
If a cabinet fault or isolator output failure causes the true electrical state of the output to differ from the intended state, the FLT indicator will illuminate. This may be caused by a failure of the Model 242E output circuit, a wiring malfunction in the cabinet, or an input circuit malfunction in the controller unit.
LEDs labeled “OUT”. The Model 242E operating voltage is generated by a high efficiency off-line switching power supply. The VDD supply for the microcontroller and display elements results from a post regulated 5 Vdc.
The Model 242E requires no adjustments or preventive maintenance. 1.7.1 TROUBLE ANALYSIS The following list should be used to trouble-shoot the Model 242E installation. If the Model 242E unit itself is suspect, see Section 1.7.2 for a complete internal testing sequence.
