Motorola FLN2025A is a 60DI digital input module for the MOSCAD RTU. The 60 Digital Input module is an accessory to the MOSCAD RTU family that permits up to 60 dry-contact status inputs, from switches or relays in other on-site equipment, to be connected to the RTU. Examples include site or equipment failure alarms, motor controller alarms, and equipment malfunction alarms.
Features
Data Input
Under the control of the defined Application Program, the CPU module in the RTU will read the current instantaneous status of one or more of the 60 inputs, and move that data from the 60DI module into the CPU module via the motherboard.
- This data may then be used by the Application Program in the required manner to perform the desired functions.
Low-Speed Counters
Each of the 60 status inputs may be used as low-speed counter inputs. The totalizing maybe done within theCPU module under Application control. The Application must read the associated input(s) in a timely manner to assure not missing any input event.
- Any number of counter inputs are easily obtained.
Time-Tagging
Any of the 60 status inputs may be defined to tag the time of the input event with one millisecond resolution.
- This time may then be read and used in sequence-ofevent actions, etc. or used later for historical reports.
Packaging
The module is packaged in a plastic housing that plugs and locks into the motherboard. All wire connections must be made by small size wire (20 ga. typical). No jumpers, calibration pots, etc. are located on the module (any calibration is done electronically via software from the Tool-Box program.)
- Modularity allows the MOSCAD RTU to be easily expanded as system wants and needs change and makes field module replacement quick and easy.
