The binary output for Alarm will be activated in the
following cases:
• Remaining control deviation
• Circuit to I/P module is disturbed
• Circuit to potentiometer is disturbed
• Calibration error:
◊ No angle calibration
◊ No current calibration
◊ Autostart failed
These pre-settings can be configured via communication
with the Alarm Link function in the DTM
One module “Additional inputs / outputs” 8 can be plugged
onto main electronics 40:
• 2 binary inputs or
• 2 binary outputs or
• 2 binary in/outputs or
• Position feedback and alarm
