The Input/Output Unit provides supervision of one or more normally open contacts connected to a single pair of cables and a set of change-over relay output contacts.
Compliant with EN54-17 & 18, it is set to return an analogue value of 4 in the event of an open or short-circuit fault and 16 during normal operation. The status of the inputs is reported by means of two input bits. The change-over contacts are operated by an output bit.
It is fitted with a bi-directional short-circuit isolator and will be unaffected by loop short circuits on either loop input or output.
