Monitoring and Control

Introduction

The Gecko 8900TF/8900TFN frames offer monitoring and remote control
capability by providing two types of frame communication modules that
can reside in the controller cell of the frame:

Frame Monitor module (8900TF Frame), or

8900NET Network Interface module (8900TFN Frame).

The 8900NET Network Interface module supports all the functionality of
the Frame Monitor module plus the 10 Base-T Ethernet bus for web-based
GUI control and monitoring. For information on the 8900NET module and
GUI refer to the 8900NET Network Interface Module Instruction Manual.

The Frame Monitor module is described in this manual. The Frame
Monitor module is an interface for the forced-air cover and Frame Alarm
fault reporting.

The Frame Monitor module provides:

Variable power to the fan front cover to regulate fan speed

Analog module presence indication

LED display for quick diagnostics of alarm conditions

DIP switch for enabling and disabling alarms and the variable fan
speed option
