17. OUTPUT MODULES
The ALMEMO
®
204 measuring instrument has
two output sockets, A1 and A2; these can be
used to output measured values in analog or
digital form or as an alarm signal. It is also pos-
sible to initiate various functions by means of
trigger pulses. To cover all possibilities while
also keeping the required hardware to a mini-
mum all necessary interfaces have been inte-
grated in the ALMEMO
®
output cables or output modules.
These output modules, just like the sensors themselves, are recognized auto-
matically and listed in the
Output modules
menu. The numerous connection
possibilities are described in detail in the Manual, Chapter 5.
17.1 Data cable
All ALMEMO
®
data cables and their connection to devices are described in de-
tail in the Manual, Section 5.2. Other modules for networking the devices are
described in detail in the Manual, Section 5.3. The interface modules are con-
nected to socket A1 (2); this is with the exception of network cable ZA-1999-
NK5 which is used for networking a further device; this must be connected to
socket A2. In the menu under the socket concerned the following information is
displayed:
Socket A1:
DC Data cable
Variant 0: Serial standard interface always active
0: RS232
The baud rate is saved in the cable connector
Baud rate: 9600 bd
17.2 Relay trigger modules
The elements of the V6 relay trigger cables (ZA 1006-ECG) and the relay trig-
ger analog adapters (ZA 8006-RTA3) can have their function variants individu-
ally configured.
This offers up to 10 relays or options with 2 of these as trigger inputs or up to 4
as analog outputs. These modules can be connected equally well to output
socket A2 or output socket A1
(2)
.
To ensure that all elements can be addressed, each of these sockets has been
assigned 10 port addresses.
