Electrical Interface
14.4 Switched Input and Output Signals
The ICM has one switched input and two switched outputs. These can be used
instead of, or in addition to, the RS485 interface for command and control. The
RS485 interface is more flexible but requires more software work if LPA-View is
not used (e.g. control from a PLC). An alternative is to control the ICM via these
switched I/Os, either from a PLC or using a manual switch and indicators.

Switched I/O Signals
In order to reduce wiring the input and outputs all connect together on one side
(see Figure
). However they are optically isolated from the rest of the system
so can be used to switch unrelated signals.
14.5 Start Signal
The "start signal’’ is an opto-isolated input that can be used to start a test. This
could be from a push button or a PLC output. The input accepts AC or DC signals,
typically derived from the DC supply voltage. The exact function of this input is
determined by the Test Mode setting (12.7).
