1. Description
The Trusted
TM
TMR 120VAC Digital Input is a member of the Trusted
TM
range of Input/Output (I/O)
modules. All Trusted
TM
I/O modules share common functionality and form. At the most general level,
all I/O modules interface to the Inter-Module Bus (IMB) which provides power and allows
communication with the Trusted
TM
TMR Processor. In addition, all modules have a field interface that
is used to connect to module specific signals in the field. All modules are Triple Modular Redundant
(TMR).

The Trusted
TM
TMR 120VAC Digital Input comprises of five sections: AC Digital Input Field
Termination Assembly (T8824), Host Interface Unit (HIU), the Field Interface Unit (FIU), the Field
Termination Unit (FTU) and the Front Panel Unit (or FPU). The T8824 is external to the module,
connecting to it via a FTA cable, but it provides an integral part of the module functionality.
