permissive with the programmed opposing channel thus causing a conflict with the Green or Yellow 
of the opposing channel if they are on. 

LED Thresholds

: When LED Thresholds is enabled the monitor senses Greens, Yellows, and Reds as 

ON when their voltage is above 25V

RMS

 and OFF when below 15V

RMS

 for the conflict test.

RED FAIL MONITORING 

Configuration

:  All channels with a setting of “ON” for Red Fail switches will be monitored for the red fail fault.  

The testing defaults for this feature are all channels enabled for red fail testing. 

Test Preformed

: When a channel has no displays active (Red, Yellow, or Green) a red fail timer is started.  If a 

display turns on for the channel the red fail timer is stopped (it is not cleared) and a non-red fail timer is started.  If 
the no active display condition returns the non-red fail timer is reset to zero and the red fail timer continues timing 
from its prior value.  If the red fail timer reaches 800 milliseconds or more the monitor will latch a red fail fault.  If 
the non-red fail timer reaches 300 milliseconds the red  fail timer is reset to zero and the red fail is ignored.  The 
normal voltage thresholds for this test are: Reds – ON when above 70V

RMS

 and OFF when below 50V

RMS

, Greens 

and Yellows – ON when above 25V

RMS

 and OFF when below 15V

RMS

Fault Action:

  The monitor transfers the Output relay contacts to the fault condition, activates the Stop Time 

output, and illuminates the 

RED FAIL

 indicator on the front panel.  The Signal Sequence log and the Prior Faults 

log will record this fault. 

Resetting the Fault:

 The monitor remains in this fault condition until the unit is reset by the activation of the front 

panel reset pushbutton or the activation of the reset input.  Power loss or power interruption will not reset this fault.  
The Reset log will record the resetting of this fault. 

Modifying Inputs

:  

Red Enable

: All red fail testing will be disabled when this input is below 50V

RMS

 and enabled when 

this input is above 70V

RMS

MC Coil (Relay Output, Side 2)

: All red fail testing will be disabled when this input is below 50V

RMS

 

and enabled when this input is above 70V

RMS

Special Function 1

: When operating normally, all red fail testing will be disabled when this input is 

below 50V

RMS

 and enabled when this input is above 70V

RMS

.  When inverted, all red fail testing will 

be enabled when this input is below 50V

RMS

 and disabled when this input is above 70V

RMS

Special Function 2

: This input has no effect unless it is enabled through the RaeComM software.  

When operating normally, all red fail testing will be disabled when this input is below 50V

RMS

  and 

enabled when this input is above 70V

RMS

.  When inverted, all red fail testing will be enabled when this 

input is below 50V

RMS

 and disabled when this input is above 70V

RMS

Feature Interactions

Red Enable Must Be Active (Option Jumper 3)

: When Red Enable Must Be Active is jumpered the 

Red Enable input and at least one Red input must be active or a red fail fault will be generated. 

Yellow Disable Jumpers

: When Yellow Disable is jumpered for a channel that Yellow is removed 

from red fail testing for that channel.  If the Yellow is a child of a Flashing Yellow Arrow channel, the 
Yellow will still be used in the parent channel’s red fail test regardless of the Yellow Disable jumper 
setting of the child channel. 

2010 Mode

: When the 2010 mode of operation is enabled the timer thresholds are changed from 800 

milliseconds to 1300 milliseconds for fault detection and the reset of the fault timer is still 300 
milliseconds.  NOTE: These times will be overridden by the Flashing Greens option if both features 
are active. 

LED Thresholds

: When LED Thresholds is enabled the Greens, Yellows, and Reds are sensed as ON 

when their voltage is above 70V

RMS

 and OFF when below 50V

RMS

 for the red fail test. 

Flashing Greens (also known as Canadian Fast Flash)

: When Flashing Greens are enabled the timer 

thresholds are changed from 800 milliseconds to 1500 milliseconds for fault detection and from 300 
milliseconds to 200 milliseconds for the reset of the fault timer.  NOTE: These times will override the 
2010 Mode times if both features are active. 

Flashing Yellow Arrow Left Turns

: When Flashing Yellow Arrow (FYA) Left Turns are enabled and a 

Channel has an FYA setting with a green border for one of its child channels (child channel is 
permissive with the parent channel), then the Green of the child channel will be included in the red fail 
test for that channel.  If a Channel has an FYA setting with a yellow border for one of its child 
channels, then the Yellow of the child channel will be included in the red fail test for that channel.
