– Aux Input and BMS Input/Output and MetPak Interface
The RLC has an auxiliary socket to support inputs, BMS input and outputs and the interface to the
MetPak weather station.
The connector is a 15 way High Density D connector with the pinout shown below:
Note that power (12V for an RLC) at a maximum of 100mA is
available from pin 10 to power external devices.
BMS Outputs
The BMS outputs are voltage free relay outputs.
BMS Input
The BMS IP (pin 5) can have the same range of inputs as the
auxiliary inputs (below).
Auxiliary Inputs
Below are a few options for controlling the Aux Inputs:
1) Relay contact
a. An instrument relay can be used
b. Ensure that there are no high
voltages >12V DC present
2) Transistor (Open Collector/Drain)
a. Either a junction transistor (NPN
shown) or an FET can be used
b. Aux Input has internal pull-up
c. Device must be rated >12V
3) Simple Switch
a. Could be any good quality switch.
Examples
include:
micro-switch,
instrument switch.
MetPak Interface
Covered in the separate MetPak manual
