OPTIONAL RELAY CARD (EBM80/RC4)
The optional mechanical relay card has four channels for generating pulse outputs. The
outputs are fused at 5 amps, and an individual LED provides the status of each output.
Jumper JP1 determines whether the +12 VDC power source for the relay coil is internal
or external. The default setting sources the relay coil externally. Jumpers JP2, JP3,
JP4, and JP5, one for each relay, determine whether the relay coils are energized on a
low or high logic state from the RTU. The default setting is for low logic state. Ports
P4.0, P5.0, P6.0, and P7.0 determine the addressing of the relay outputs in sets of four.
For proper function, both hardware and software addressing must match. The table
below lists the specifications for the mechanical relay card.
