8.2.1 General Concepts
The following discussion explains several concepts that are important for
understanding the operation of the PTQ-LNG module.
Module Power Up
On power up, the module begins performing the following logical functions:
1 Read configuration for module from LNGS.CFG file from internal EPROM
2 Initialize module register space
3 Enable slave driver
4 Initialize all serial communication ports
After the module receives the configuration, it begins communicating with Telegyr
devices on the network.
Main Logic Loop
Upon completing the power up configuration process, the module enters an
infinite loop that performs the functions shown in the following diagram.
Backplane Data Transfer
The PTQ-LNG module is unique in the way that the Quantum backplane is used.
All data for the module is contained in the module's internal database. Data is
moved between the module and the Quantum processor across the backplane
using the 3x Register Start and 4x Register Start parameters in the module
configuration file.
