CM-4400 Control System’s Protection Features
The CM-4400 has many features that are for your protection. These features
include:
• Alarms
• Single CM-4400
• Redundant CM-4400
• Redundant Units
Alarm Modes
The CM-4400’s alarm system will start in the following conditions:
• The main CPU (or a main CPU task) is not operating properly.
• The power supply is not operating properly.
• The unit is in the process of rebooting.
The master alarm condition is indicated by either a “00,” “01,” or “FF” on
the front panel’s LED display, and at the rear panel’s Alarm BNC connector
(
Figure 3 on page 33 ). For more information alarm conditions, see Error
Codes on page 260 .
The Control Module Alarm Circuit
Electrically, the Alarm BNC operates according to the SMPTE standard
269M-1999. When an alarm is asserted, the circuit associated with the
Alarm connector will present low impedance to an external current source
circuit provided by the customer.
Figure 9 shows the CM-4400 alarm circuit
(left) and an example of a customer-supplied indicator circuit (right).
