3.12.6 Fault Relay
ADPRO FastTx has a fault relay, which is a double pole type, i.e. complementary Normally Open/
Normally Closed poles, on pins 13, 14 and 15 of the General Inputs/Outputs connector. The Fault
relay activates while the ADPRO FastTx is in a fault state. The contacts will remain in the
changeover condition until reset.
The operation is as follows:
•
When the unit is powered off, the relay is Normally Closed.
•
When the unit powers up and is booting, i.e. the red light is on or flashing, the fault relay is
Normally Closed.
•
When the unit is operating normally, the fault relay will be Normally Open.
•
In the case of an over-temperature situation, the fault relay will be Normally Closed until the
temperature returns to normal.

3.12.7 General Alarm Relay Output
Pins 10, 11 and 12 contain a Form C single pole changeover contact set. If configured to do so,
the General Alarm relay activates while the ADPRO FastTx has an alarm active. The contacts
will remain in the changeover condition until all alarms are reset.

The relay may also be configured to activate whenever the unit is connected via a network or
data link to the Remote Viewing Software (e.g. ADPRO VideoCentral). This feature may be used
(for instance) to notify a third-party alarm system when ADPRO FastTx activity is taking place.
3.13 Powering Up the ADPRO FastTx
The ADPRO FastTx is supplied with a universal input power supply which operates from 100-240
V AC, 50-60 Hz. There are no switches to change based upon your particular mains power
voltage or frequency.
When power is applied to the ADPRO FastTx the green LED located on the front panel of the unit
will illuminate.
If the green LED fails to illuminate check that there is power available from the socket into which
the ADPRO FastTx is connected.
The ADPRO FastTx will then automatically perform a series of self-test routines which check the
microprocessor circuits. When power is first applied to the ADPRO FastTx unit, the red LED on
the front of the unit will be on. After approximately 60 seconds, the red LED should start
switching on, then off, every two seconds. Once the unit successfully completes the integrity
check, the red LED will switch off, and remain off.
If at any time during operation, the red LED switches on and stays on, this signifies a fault with
the unit and technical support is required.
