Description

Rack slots
(module (card) positions)
: Front of rack:
• 12 × slots – module (card) positions 03 to 14 – for processing
modules (cards) such as MPC4Mk2, XMx16, MPC4 and/or AMC8.
• 2 × slots – module (card) positions 00 to 01 – for rack controller
and communications interface modules (cards) such as CPUMMk2
or CPUx.
• 1 × slot – module (card) position 02 – reserved for applicationspecific modules (cards).
Rear of rack:
• Up to 19 × slots – module (card) positions 00 to 18 – for associated
input/output modules (cards) such as IOC4Mk2, XIO16T, IOC4T and/
or IOC8T, IOCNMk2 or IOCx, and relay modules (cards) such as
RLC16Mk2, RLC16 and/or IRC4.
• Up to 4 × slots – module (card) positions 17 to 20 – for associated
rear panels for inputs to the VM600Mk2/VM600 RPS6U rack power
supply or supplies.

Notes
In general, associated input/output modules (cards) are required
while relay modules (cards) are optional.
For safety reasons, any VM600Mk2/VM600 rack slot not populated
by a module (card) must be covered by a blank panel(s).
Rack slot number coding : For modules (cards) installed in the rear of an ABE04x rack, an
electronic keying mechanism known as slot number coding is used
to help ensure that the module (card) is installed in the correct slot,
as defined by the configuration (that is, by the VibroSight® or
VM600 MPSx software).
For ABE04x racks, the rack’s slot numbers are fixed (hard-wired) and
slot number coding requires that a module’s slot number is set to
match the rack slot (module (card) position) where it is installed.
Slot number coding range : 3 to 14
Slot number coding defaults : Fixed (hard-wired) as follows:
• Slot 03 = 3 (0011 binary)
• Slot 04 = 4 (0100 binary)
…
• Slot 13 = 13 (1101 binary)
• Slot 14 = 14 (1110 binary).
Galvanic separation : Galvanic separation units (GSIxxx) are available for accelerometer
and proximity systems mounted in explosive atmospheres. These
units cannot be supplied by the rack and require an external power
supply. They must be mounted outside the rack in a remote housing
or in a cabinet.
