Australian Panel Format

Overview

Australian / USA Differences

The main difference with the Australian panels is that they are assembled in the Australian (Tyco) range of rack cabinets.

Some further specific differences follow:

4100U/4100A Differences

•Only the Expansion Bay is used, with the Controller CPU and Motherboard mounted in the right hand side of the first one. The standard US Controller Bay is not used.

•The Operator Interface is fitted to an Australian specific 4U hinged bracket mounted above the first bay.

•Australian specific bay mounting brackets and trims are used. This includes the standard range of 19” rack mount panels and brackets.

•Only one version of SPS is available. This mounts on a specific bracket and also to an expansion bay, and is unique to Australia.

•Only one version of IDNet card is used, ie the 4100-3101.

•Two of the addressable modules were modified specifically for AS4428, i.e. 4090- 9117AU Addressable Power Isolations, and the 4090-9120AU 6 Point I/O.

•Other cards / modules not used in Australia include the large range of Evacuation products and some modems.

Standard 4100 motherboards and cards fit in a 4100U bay. The following items however, do not fit:

•4100 Switch/LED display modules;

•The range of Australian brackets that mount to the front of a 4100 bay. This includes some EWIS products, Brigade interface brackets, T-Gen bracket, and printer.

•The metal bracket that mounts into a 4100 bay (as does a Motherboard), and houses: the 25W and 50W amplifiers; the T-Gen; two MiniGens; the 1948 24V 2A PSU; or the Powerblock PSU.

A revised version of this bracket has been designed to mount the T-Gen, two MiniGens or the 1948 PSU into a 4100U bay. It does not, however, take the two amplifiers. The Powerblock. PSU is not available in this form.

Note that although 4100 cards fitted to motherboards, and the bay mounting brackets, can be fitted in directly behind Switch/LED modules, they cannot be fitted behind the 64/64 Switch/LED Controller mounted to the inside of the bay door. This is typically mounted behind the LED/Switch Modules fitted to the 3rd and 4th positions from the left.
