Relay Commands
Serious injury or death can occur if a command channel is activated while you are performing
maintenance on your equipment.
If you are performing maintenance on your equipment, you
should press the REMOTE/LOCAL button on your Sicon-8 to switch into Local mode. The LED
indicator changes to a flashing red. Local mode prevents the unit from issuing command outputs.
All metering and status information is still available to remote software users, but the Sicon-8 won't
accept incoming telephone calls until a user programmed number of rings (default = 20
th
ring) and
will not accept any commands or change the state of any of its relays. By default, the Sicon-8 cannot
remotely exit from the local mode but, it is possible to set the Sicon-8 up so that an administrator can
remotely toggle the Sicon-8 out of local mode. For additional safety it is strongly suggested that,
in
addition to setting the Sicon-8 to Local mode, the remote/local switch on any transmitter or
high Voltage equipment also be set to the local mode.
Relay Operation
The Sicon-8 employs six channels (1 thru 6) of SPST relays. The remaining two channels (7 & 8)
have DPDT relays. Normally, each relay operates independently of all others. Relays are also
configured for momentary operation. Under independent & momentary operation the following
applies to all relays:
*
- An asterisk (star) operates the current channel’s RAISE relay for the duration of the DTMF tone
# - Pound operates the current channel’s LOWER relay for the duration of the DTMF tone
1. Press and hold *
2. When * is released, the Sicon begins recording.
3. The Sicon stops recording either when any DTMF tone is entered, or the end of the phrase time
is reached.
4. At this point, the Sicon will play back what was recorded.
5. If you're satisfied with the recording, enter 0. To re-record the phrase, enter 1. This will take
you back to step 1.
