About the Hardware

The parallel module M1400 is an input / output module used in the II/O system. There are 32
Standard 24 V inputs / outputs, which achieve 4 ports of 8 bit each.
These 4 ports ( D0..D3 ) correspond to the data bytes in the FO transmissions protocol and
according to the way they are to be used, they can be configured as input or output.

Each input / output has an LED, that indicates the current state. Furthermore there are three
LED’s installed used for diagnosis of the II/O fibre optical ring:

LD1

The green ’CYCLE’ LED is switched on by each start bit of a telegram and is
switched off again by the stop bit.

LD2

The red ’ERROR’ LED is switched on after the recognition of a bad telegram (checksum,
frame). After a sequence of three correct telegrams (checksum, frame) were processed it
is switched off again.

LD3

The green LED ’WATCHDOG’ is switched on by a valid writing telegram with matching

address. If no telegram with the properties defined above is recognised for the next

100 ms a special unit of the module switches off all outputs.

In case an error is detected, all outputs are reset.
