Visual alarms:
Two control LEDs are provided on the TFAx front side (fig.3.18). The green
LED describes the power supply status, while the red LED describes the major
Remote Unit failures (please refer to the table 3.4).
Dry contact alarms:
TFAx is provided with two dry contacts inputs, which can
be connected (through .062” MOLEX plugs) to any external
device. In such a way, the alarm information about this
external device can be signalled through the red LED of
TFAx LED panel and displayed into the supervision system.
Power supply
The Case B remote unit is provided with an external power supply TPSN (fig.
3.20 a,b), available either for universal mains (90 to 264) or for negative
supply. (-72 to -36 Vdc). Each TPSN external power supply provides the
remote units with a +5Vdc power, by means of a 3-pole connector (fig.
3.20c).
Warnings (to be read before remote units are
installed)
Dealing with optical output ports
