18.6 Setting Up the UDC and PMI Meter Ports
If your system configuration incorporates an AutoMax Distributed
Power drive, the Monitor Set Up UDC/PMI menu allows you to
select variables to drive the four D/A output ports (labeled Meter
Ports") on each of the UDC modules and PMI Processors. The
analog signals output by these ports can be used to drive meters,
chart recorders, or other test instruments. Refer to the appropriate
DPS Configuration and Programming instruction manual for more
information on connecting equipment to the UDC and PMI meter
ports.
After the slot number of a UDC module is entered, the user can enter
or modify setup information about the meter ports for the UDC
module or for either of the PMI Processors associated with that UDC
module. See figure 18.9 for the UDC Setup screen display.
Note that both the configuration file and the drive parameter file
(.POB file) must be downloaded to the UDC before you can set
up the UDC or PMI meter ports using Monitor.
