1 OPERATION INTRODUCTION This chapter describes how to configure and use the RLY-6 relay interface module. System operators can use this manual once the Eclipse System has been correctly installed and the relays have been assigned with the Eclipse Configuration System. DESCRIPTION The RLY-6 relay interface module provides six independent, single-pole, double-throw (SPDT) relays that are directly controlled by the matrix.
The RLY-6 interface contains circuitry to ensure that relays are not inadvertently activated during power-up until commanded by the matrix. Logical control of the relays in the RLY-6 interface is provided by associating a relay with any other label in the system using the Eclipse Configuration System programming software. Activating a TALK or LISTEN label with a relay associated to it will also activate that relay. There is a special classification of labels for relays called Control Labels.
2 INSTALLATION INTRODUCTION This chapter describes the installation of the RLY-6 relay interface module and wiring to the external devices. The RLY-6 occupies one slot in an interface frame. Connections are made to the matrix frame via an 8-pin RJ-45 connector, and to the external devices via two DB-9M connectors. There are no adjustment controls for the RLY-6. INSTALLATION To install the RLY-6 interface module in the IMF-3 or IMF-102 interface frame, select a slot to install the interface in. 14.
Then, plug the other end into the top RJ-45 (CH. A MATRIX) connector additional RLY-6. (See Figure 2-1 on the next page.) Additional RLY-6 interfaces are added in the same way, using "daisy-chain" wiring. If there are multiple RLY-6 interfaces, the inputs in the first interface are numbered 1 to 6 for RLY 1; in the second interface 1 to 6 for RLY 2, etc. RLY interface 0 is the internal Matrix RLY interface.
