Value Box should contain no indication of Alarms. Press the RESET switch
on the Rack Interface Module (RIM) to reset latching alarms.
10. If you can not verify any configured alarm, recheck the configured setpoints.
If the monitor still does not alarm properly or fails any other part of this test,
go to Section 5.1.11 (If a Channel Fails a Verification Test).
11. Disconnect the test equipment and reconnect the PWR / B, COM, and SIG /
A field wiring to the channel terminals on the I/O module. Verify that the OK
LED comes on and the OK relay energizes. Press the RESET switch on the
Rack Interface Module (RIM) to reset the OK LED.
12. Repeat steps 1 through 11 for all configured channels.
5.1.9.3
Verify Channel Values - Acceleration
The general approach for testing these parameters is to simulate the
Acceleration signal with a function generator and power supply. The channel
values are verified by varying the output from the test equipment and observing
that the correct results are reported in the Verification screen on the test
computer.
Note
These parameters have an accuracy specification of ±1 % of full scale.

1. Disconnect PWR / B, COM, and SIG / A field wiring from the channel
terminals on the I/O module.
2. Connect test equipment and run software as described in section 5.1.9.1
(Test Equipment and Software Setup - Acceleration).
3. Calculate the verification frequency using the method in Section 5.1.9.5, page
175. Adjust the function generator frequency to the calculated value.
4. Calculate the full-scale voltage using the formulas in Section 5.1.9.6, page
175. Adjust the function generator (sinewave) amplitude to the calculated
value.
5. Verify that the Direct bar graph display and the Current Value Box is reading
±1 % of full scale. If the recorder output is configured, refer to Section 5.1.10
(Verify Recorder Outputs) for steps to verify the recorder output.
6. If the reading does not meet specifications, check that the input signal is
correct. If the monitor still does not meet specifications or fails any other part
of this test, go to Section 5.1.11 (If a Channel Fails a Verification Test).
7. Disconnect the test equipment and reconnect the PWR / B, COM, and SIG /
A field wiring to the channel terminals on the I/O module. Verify that the OK
LED comes on and the OK relay energizes. Press the RESET switch on the
Rack Interface Module (RIM) to reset the OK LED.
