1C31204G01 Features
The Ovation modules have the following features:
• Available in both remote and local configurations.
• Modular, "plug-in" components.
• Quick installation and configuration of the modules.
• DIN Rail mounting of the I/O Base Units.
• Wiring schematic labels are provided on Personality modules for Standard I/O.
• Wiring directions (Normally Closed (NC), Normally Open (NO), Common (C)) are provided on the Base Unit for Relay Output modules.
• Writable surface labels are provided on Standard I/O Electronics modules so that up to 16 point names can be identified on each label.
• The labels on the Standard I/O Personality and Electronics modules are colorcoded to match the appropriate modules.
• Unique Base Unit interconnection scheme eliminates power and communications wiring.
•Module style, group, serial number, and revision are stored electronically on each I/O Electronics module.
• Hot swapping capabilities streamline system maintenance (see Section 6-5.1).
• Status indicators that display standardized diagnostic LED color codes.
• Up to 128 Standard Ovation modules per Local Controller (Electronics module plus a Personality module = 1 module unit).
• Up to 1024 Standard Ovation modules per Remote Controller (Electronics module plus a Personality module = 1 module unit). • Base Unit common to all Standard I/O modules.
• Two Base Unit styles (G2R and KUEP) are available for Relay Output modules
• Testpoint/probe holder on each field terminal (except G2R style Base Unit).
• Built-in spare fuse holders and wire strip gauge in Standard I/O Base Units.
•Most are CE Mark compliant
