Frame Monitor and Network Interface Modules
The total frame power required is less than 30 watts; therefore, the convec-
tion frame may be used.
With ten modules, the total frame power required is greater than 30 watts
and an 8900TF or 8900TFN forced-air frame must be used.
Frame Monitor and Network Interface Modules
8900 frame configuration supports the use of either the Frame Monitor or
the 8900NET Network Interface module. The Frame Monitor module pro-
vides alarm reporting for the Frame Alarm only. The 8900NET Network
Interface module provides full functionality of the frame communication
buses including:
• Frame Alarm,
• RS-232 Configuration, and
• 10Base-T Ethernet.
Refer to the 8900NET Network Interface Module Instruction Manual.
