(15) Location of the I/O Module |
The customer interfaces are accessible through the System I/O Module. The System I/O Module is located inside the left front door of the system. See illustration 2.
Remote Emergency Power Off Switch
The remote emergency power off switch is an external interface. This interface is intended for use by the customer when a custom system is set up. The remote switch is equivalent to the local switch.
The connector consists of two pairs of contacts. One pair of contacts is for a normally open switch and the other pair is for a normally closed switch. The switches may be used individually or the switches may be used together. The contacts are located on the I/O module. See illustration 1.
Note: If the normally closed remote switch is not used, this pair of contacts must be jumpered for normal operation.

Input Contacts
Illustration 3 | g01119230 |
Connector "J7" (Input (Customer)) |
The system has six pairs of contacts for input. The contacts are "A" type. The contacts are located on the System I/O Module. See illustration 1. Each input is intended to interface to a single-pole single-throw switch. The switch connects the pair of contacts or the switch disconnects the pair of contacts. Illustration 3 refers to the connector pin designations for connector "J7" on the System I/O Module.
The contacts that are user programmable have an operating parameter. The operating parameter is used in order to configure that contact.
The following list of functions can be assigned to the contacts for the remote input block by entering the parameter in the operating parameter for the associated remote input. Refer to the following tables.

16     | "User Defined Message 2 Alarm" (8)     |
( 1 ) | This function allows different limits to be set for the following items: Transient Voltage Detection, Maximum Input Current and the operating parameters for the Walk-in Rate. |
( 2 ) | This is available only if there are no errors that are active. |
( 3 ) | This will trigger an output contact for an External Alarm. |
( 4 ) | The Remote Alarm Silence will silence the buzzer when a Notice and/or an Alarm is active. |
( 5 ) | A message is printed stating that the breaker is open when the input is activated. |
( 6 ) | A message is printed stating that the breaker is closed when the input is deactivated. |
( 7 ) | A message is printed when the input is activated and/or deactivated. |
( 8 ) | This is used in order to configure messages for the user in UPS View. |

Output Contacts
Illustration 4 | g01119268 |
Connector "J6" (Output (Customer)) |
The system has six pairs of contacts for output. The contacts are "C" type. The pairs of contacts act as a single-pole double-throw switch. The contacts can be configured using UPS View in order to indicate if certain conditions exist. Illustration 4 refers to the connector pin designations for connector "J6" on the System I/O Module.
The contacts that are user programmable have an operating parameter that is used to configure that contact. The following list of functions can be assigned to the remote output contacts by entering the parameter in the operating parameter for the associated remote output.
List of Functions for the Output Contact     | |
---|---|
Function     | Description     |
0     | No function     |
1-100     | "Flywheel Percent Energy" (1)     |
101     | "On-line (normal)"     |
102     | "On Bypass"     |
103     | "Flywheel Discharging"     |
104     | "Notice or Alarm Condition is active"     |
