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. Remove the blank plates from the front and rear of the slot in which
an interface module will be installed.
15. Install the interface module in the appropriate slot. Advance the
front half the interface module along the guides in the front part of
the slot until it connects to the midplane connector. Advance the rear
half of the interface module along the guides in the rear part of the
slot, until it connects with the midplane connector.
16. Install the provided screws on the front and rear panels of the
interface module you have just installed, to secure the interface in
place in the frame.
The rest of the installation consists of connecting the RLY-6 module to
the control input and to the matrix frame (or to the “daisy-chain” output
of another RLY-6 or GPI-6 interface module).
For more information on installing the RLY-6 interface in an IMF-3 or
IMF-102 interface frame, see the Interface Module Frames Instruction
Manual.
WIRING
The following sections describe connecting the RLY-6 to the matrix and
external devices.
TO MATRIX
To connect the RLY-6 to the matrix, plug one end of a RJ-45 cable
(eight wires with no reversal) into the GPI-RLY INTERFACE connector
on the back of the matrix. Plug the other end into the top RJ-45 (CH. A
MATRIX) connector for the RLY-6.
To connect an additional RLY-6 interface, plug one end of a short
RJ-45 cable into the lower RJ-45 (CH. B MATRIX) for the first RLY-6.
