Alarm connections from redundant control modules
A Y-cable can be used to give primary and secondary control modules the ability to
monitor the alarm status of the same remote devices. One end of this type of cable
consists of two male DB-15 connectors, bridged pin for pin. The other end of this
cable consists of individual wires to the alarm connections of the remote devices, as
shown in Figure 2-12.
Figure 2-12. Redundant alarm monitoring connections
This type of connection allows either control module to be the primary control
module and monitor the same set of remote alarm conditions.
Note
For information about configuration and alarm profiles, see the
Stinger
Reference
and the
Stinger Administration Guide
. For information on enhancements to
alarm profiles, and the alarm command to support revision 2 and revision 2.1 control
modules, see the
Stinger Administration Guide
