or when exchanging cop-
per cables with optical cables.
There are three criteria
I1
,
I2
and
M1
. I1 and I2 stand for the current that occurs at 3.3 V and 5 V respectively. M1
stands for memory allocated by the system. Each criterion must be valid, to allow the card to be inserted.
The rule is for each criterion the same. For each card there is a value that must be multiplied by the amount how
often it is inserted in the O
MNI
B
US
. The system base load must always be added once. The sum may not exceed
the maximum allowed value for the device, if the configuration shall be allowed.

Components values for configuration criteria calculation for OmniBus devices
It is not allowed to configure combinations of cards that do not fullfil the three above
criteria. Otherwise there is the risk to destroy the power supply or to configure the device in
a way it is not operable.
