12.5.3 IPM/RTM Software Compatibility
NOTE
A „New IPM‟ is considered to be version 9 or earlier; An „Old RTM‟ is
version 2 or earlier (reported as „20‟ on the IPM display).
New RTM and New IPM - Nothing to consider.
New RTM and Old IPM - The Old IPM will ignore the remote start setting.
Old RTM and New IPM - The new IPM will check the version of the RTM (this is transmitted in
the pilot protocol). If the RTM
has the „remote start‟ parameter set, but the RTM version is too old,
the IPM will display “RTM Version Error”.
Old RTM and Old IPM - Nothing to consider.
12.5.4 Status Messages
There are two new status messages -
“Need RTM Start” and “Remote Stop”.
When in remot
e start mode, whenever the RTM‟s digital input is open, the display will show “Remote
Stop”. If the digital input is closed but the IPM is stopped the display will show “Need RTM Start” to
indicate that the RTM‟s digital input needs to be opened and then closed to generate a new edge.
NOTE
This is most likely to happen if the RTM‟s digital input is closed to allow
the IPM to run and then a local stop is used to stop the IPM. Because of
the edged triggered nature of the RTM digital input, the IPM will not
automatically restart.
