3c.3.1.2 Electrode/Alarm Operation (output 1 function only) - SW6

Opto-isolated output from TR2 can be configured to receive either an electrode input or it can be used as the ‘system fault’ output. The two positions are detailed in Figure 3c.1 (on page 3c-6). When configured as the system fault output, the opto-isolated output is energised (low resistance) in the normal (non-fault) state and is de-energised(high resistance) for a fault condition.

The system fault output connections are shown in the next section.

3c.3.1.3 Opto-Isolated Output Activation (‘In Steam’ or ‘In Water’) - SW5

SW5 is a four-channel switch, one channel allocated per opto-isolated output. The choice presented by each channel switch is whether the output device is energised (low resistance) when the particular electrode is in water (W) or when that electrode is in steam (S). Switch SW5 is highlighted in Figure 3c.1 (on page 3c-6) to provide additional information on channel identity and the switch ‘electrode state’.

3c.3.1.4 System Fault Output

Opto 1 on each opto-isolated board can be configured to be a system fault opto-isolated output by setting SW6. When used as a system fault opto-isolated output the normal state of Opto 1 is low resistance and a fault state will cause Opto 1 to go into its high resistance state.

Opto 1 will only output faults detected by the input board onto which it is installed. With a dual power supply Hydrastep unit, this means it is necessary to used two opto-isolated output boards (one on each input board) to create a system fault output.
