3. Configuration of Optional Modules
3.1 Introduction
The GEM80-500 Controller provides a flexible and cost-effective means of replacing
previous GEM80 Controllers having differing I/O and Communication facilities. This is
achieved by using a range of optional plug-in modules. This flexibility is enhanced by
the use of a single jumper link allowing two modules of the same type to be fitted in the
system.
The GEM80-500 Controller can support the following I/O combinations:
•
One Module 9713-4020 providing one Basic Ribbon and one Verification Ribbon;
•
One Module 9713-4021 providing two Basic Ribbons;
•
Two Modules 9713-4021 providing four Basic Ribbons;
•
One Module 9713-4020 and one Module 9713-4021 providing three Basic
Ribbons and one Verification Ribbon.
The Controller can also support up to two plug-in Serial Communications Modules of
type 9714-4020. Each module has two serial ports.
The Controller can also be fitted with a TCP/IP Ethernet Module (9716-4020), a FIP
module (9715-4020) and upto two GEMCAN I/O Scanner modules (9720-4020).
This section details the configuration of each of the modules and the serial ports.
The selection of optional modules for use in the GEM80-500 Controller is subject to
rules which govern the combinations of modules that may be used.
Recommendations are also made for the stacking order in which the modules are fitted
into the controller.

Configuration of Optional Modules in the controller
3.2.1 Configuration
Rules
The rules, which have to be followed when selecting optional modules, are:
•
Only one FIP Module can be fitted;
•
Maximum of two GEMCAN I/O Scanner Modules can be fitted;
•
Maximum of two Serial Communications Modules can be fitted;
•
Only one Basic/Verification I/O Module can be fitted;
•
Maximum of two Basic I/O Modules can be fitted;
•
One Basic/Verification I/O Module with one Basic/Basic I/O Module can be fitted;
These rules are embodied at Table 3-1 which shows the various arrangements of
optional modules and, in particular, the mandatory arrangements which apply.
