Product Description

FSM *0 Drop-flap fault annunciator
 
The compact FSM *0 drop-flap fault annunciator is installed in a housing for panel-mounting according to DIN ****1. The FSM consists of *0 green indicating discs, each featuring a LED for displaying the signals. The fault annunciator offers energy-independent long-term storage of active signals via bi-stable mechanical indicating elements. Therefore no battery backup is required. The messages are clearly visible at any time regardless of lighting conditions. The integrated event memory, which can be read via the serial interface, enables simple archiving of events and can be documented immediately via the optional printer or by the push of a . The drop-flap fault annunciator comprises functional components like *0 indicator elements with integrated LED, *0 galvanically separated reporting s, alive contact with LED, 4 programmable output relays with change-over contacts etc. In addition the RS **2 interface provides the connection with a laptop or serial printer. Besides this a real time clock with battery backup and connection socket for external DCF *7 aerial is integrated.
 
A maximum of 4 FSM *0 can be networked via the CAN bus and thus consolidated to form a group. This leads to a system, in which all *0 reporting s, *6 keys and *4 function s can be processed in each individual component. Additionally the fault annunciator can realize different reporting procedures. In this connection the options range from simple standards, such as first or new-value messaging, to complicated application-specific procedures. The indicating disks, associated LEDs and output relays are controlled and the effect of the keys and function s determined depending on the alarm sequence. In the basic fault annunciator the device can be set to the most common reporting procedures via DIP switch.
 
Additional setting options are available through software parameterisation, which enables very flexible adaptation of the fault annunciator to almost any task. In the delivery state, the fault annunciator is pre-parameterised and in most cases can therefore easily be adapted to a particular application via the DIP switches, which are provided at the rear. Basic settings like reporting sequence (first-up value / new value), triggering of the s with NO or NC contacts or automatic horn acknowledgement on or off apply. In order to adapt the fault annunciator to a wide range of different applications, parameter such as delay times for each individual alarm , definition of the reporting procedure for the reporting groups, definition of the key functions and function s, etc. can be modified additionally. Moreover the FSM is able to log events, for example incoming messages, incoming first values or incoming supply voltages with a time in the non-volatile event memory. Thereby parameters can be assigned which events are to be logged.
