13.3.4.2. Watchdog Circuitry
The most important of the status LED’s on the relay board is the red I 2 C bus watch-dog LED. It is
controlled directly by the analyzer’s CPU over the I 2 C bus. Special circuitry on the relay PCA watches
the status of D1. Should this LED ever stay ON or OFF for 30 seconds, indicating that the CPU or I 2 C
bus has stopped functioning, this Watchdog Circuit automatically shuts all valves and turns off all
heaters.
13.3.4.3. Valve Control
The relay board also hosts two valve driver chips, each of which can drive up four valves. The main
valve assembly in the 9110T is the NO/NO
X
- Auto-zero solenoid valve component mounted right in
front of the NO
2
converter housing (see Figure 3-5).
 These two valves are actuated with 12 V supplied from the relay board and under the control of the
CPU through the I 2 C bus.
Additional valve sets also controlled by the CPU via the I 2 C bus and the relay PCA can be included in
the 9110T (see Table 1-1 and Sections 3.3.2.3, 3.3.2.4, and 3.3.2.5 for descriptions of these valve sets).
