250D and 2250D

GENERAL

The GE Security 250D system transmits up to 16 channels of low-speed digital data, switch/status information, or control/function signals. The user may program the receiver to provide 16 channels of alternate-action outputs , or eight channels of each type. Outputs are TTL drivers or N/O

reed relays.

ABOUT THE SYSTEM

Units are designed for rack mounting in the GE Security Card Cage, 517R Racking System, or in the 501R Miniature Enclosure. If you have ordered standalone units, they have been shipped in a 501R (figure 3, page 3).

Each unit occupies one card-cage slot. Units in the 515R or the 517R are powered from the rack. If using the 501R Miniature Rack, the GE Security power supply, model number 613P is required (ordered separately). Inputs to the transmitter, through the 44-pin connector, are normally held high to +5 volts by means of a 1K ohm pull-up resistor. A closure to ground or an open collector to ground will activate a particular channel. The receiver has a corresponding dry closure or TTL output for each channel. The relays are normally open and the TTL is normally low. Any number of channels up to 16 may be activated at any time. The transmitter’s closure need only be momentary, alternate action, or a combination of momentary and alternate action.

TTL OUTPUTS

The receivers are set for relay operation at the factory. If TTL outputs are desired, four switches are provided to convert the channels to TTL in groups of four. Refer to figure 1 for the location of the switches.

OPTICAL INDICATORS

Transmitters include a status LED which, when green, indicates data is being sent. Receivers include a LEVEL/LOSS indicator which is used to determine received optical power.

This LED will glow green when sufficient optical power is received. If this LED is off, it indicates that optical power is not being received and would suggest that the fiber is open or, less likely,

the transmitter or receiver is inoperative.

MOMENTARY OR ALTERNATE ACTION OPERATION

Receiver outputs may be set in the field by the user for the desired operating conditions, either 16 channels of momentary operation, 16 channels of alternate action, or eight channels of each type.

To make adjustments, locate jumpers E0 and E1 (figure 1 above) found near the 8031 processor on the receiver card. For 16 channels of momentary operation, remove both jumpers. For 16 channels of alternate action operation, install both jumpers. For 8 channels of each type of operation, remove the E0 jumper and install the E1 jumper. Units are shipped with both units installed (all-alternate-action). In the event of power failure, when power is restored, all relays will be in the OPEN position, and the TTL outputs will be low.

IN CASE OF PROBLEMS

If problems should be encountered, first check to be sure power is properly connected to the modules. Also verify that the fiber is good. Then, check the transmitter status indicators. If lit, data is present. Check the Level/Loss indicators on the receivers. If they are green, the fiber optic cable connection

is functional.

If any problems arise, please contact the GE Security customer service department and have the following information available: exact model number, product code, and serial numbers of your fiber optic links, and a listing of the diagnostic indicators and their respective color/condition.
