5.4DCS 400 Control System
5.4.1 Characteristics
DCS 400 Series modules increase the PROANNOUNCE system's control functionality in miscellaneous ways. These printed board assemblies in the Europe standard format are usually inserted at the rear of a
DCS 401 control module for controlling relays, logic inputs, analog inputs and outputs, and rotary encoders
DCS 408 relay module with 5 line relays for 100 V systems
DCS 409 relay module with 5 NF or control relays
DCS 412 logic input module with 12 floating,
DCS 416 analog I/O module offering 8 inputs and 8 outputs for 0 V DC to 10 V DC
DCS 420 monitor module with
NRS 90240 rotary encoder
A PROANNOUNCE installation allows integrating a maximum of up to 8 DCS 401 control modules. A single control module can host up to 12 relay boards of the types DCS 408 / DCS 409 in any sequence. Besides, it is possible to connect up to 5 logic input modules, 2 analog I/O modules, and 2 rotary encoders.
The PROANNOUNCE operating system defines the total amount of supported control inputs and outputs. The PROANNOUNCE system can manage following amounts of different cards:
Control module DCS 401 | max. 8 boards | = 16 rotary encoders | |
Relays modules DCS 408 / DCS 409 | max. 48 boards | = 240 relays | |
Logic input module DCS 412 | max. 10 boards | = | 120 logic inputs |
Analog I/O module DCS 416 | max. 8 boards | = | 128 analog inputs / outputs |
Monitor module | max. 1 per DCS 401 |
Note: The power supply of individual boards can be provided either via
CAUTION: For safety reasons, DCS 400 modules may only be installed in
When installing modules, make sure to follow all requirements of the EN60065:1993 regulation.
