Functional Overview
Figure 1 SEL-3360-2 in Monitoring and Control Applications
Watchdog Functionality
An embedded controller provides an extra level of auto-
mation controller system reliability. One function of the
embedded controller is to restart the automation control-
ler if there is an operating system problem or a problem
with specific software services running on the operating
system.
SEL System Monitor
SEL System Monitor software monitors system perfor-
mance and component health. Alerts for alarm condi-
tions are issued on configurable thresholds. Example
thresholds include CPU usage, free disk space, and avail-
able system memory.
Ethernet
Ethernet connections allow the SEL-3360-2 to connect to
two separate, high-speed Ethernet networks via built-in
Gigabit Ethernet. Aggregate ports for increased perfor-
mance or redundancy or separate local area networks
(LANs) for control, data, or engineering access. Addi-
tional copper or fiber-optic Ethernet ports can be added
to the SEL-3360E-2 by installing PCI Express expansion
cards such as the SEL-3390E4. For information on those
cards, please refer to the appropriate expansion card
instruction manual.
Time
The
COM 1
serial port accepts IRIG-B time-code input for
precise time input from a GPS clock or other source.
EIA-232 Serial Ports
The SEL-3360-2 automation controller platform has two
built-in EIA-232 DB-9 ports, which can provide +5 V
power to run external transceivers, modems, and other
serial-connected accessories. Additional serial ports can
be added to the SEL-3360E-2 by installing PCI Express
expansion cards such as the SEL-3390S8. For informa-
tion on those cards, please refer to the appropriate expan-
sion card instruction manual.
Alarm Output
An alarm contact output on the rear panel can be used to
signal internal errors and operating system malfunctions.
Programmable LEDs
Program three front-panel bicolor LEDs for use with
your custom applications.
Out-of-Band Management
Intel vPro Active Management Technology (AMT) pro-
vides out-of-band management for security, configura-
tion, and monitoring.
