2. Setup and Installation

Proper installation of the ABB TAS01 module is crucial for its functionality and the overall system's stability. Always ensure power is disconnected from the system before handling any circuit boards.

2.1 Safety Precautions

  • Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Protection: Always wear an ESD wrist strap and work on an ESD-safe surface when handling the module to prevent damage from static electricity.
  • Power Disconnection: Ensure all power to the control system rack or chassis is completely disconnected and verified before inserting or removing the module.
  • Physical Handling: Handle the module by its edges. Avoid touching the circuit components or connector pins directly.

2.2 Installation Steps

  1. Identify the correct slot in the compatible control system chassis (e.g., ABB Symphony, Harmony, or Bailey Infi90).
  2. Carefully align the module's connectors with the backplane slot.
  3. Gently push the module into the slot until it is fully seated. Ensure the retaining clips or screws (if present) are secured.
  4. Verify the module is firmly in place and all connections are secure.
  5. Once installed, power can be restored to the system.

3. Operating Instructions

The ABB TAS01 module operates as a Sequence Of Events Master Transfer Module within its designated control system. Its primary function is to manage and transfer event data, contributing to the overall system's control logic and data acquisition.

3.1 Power-Up and Initialization

  • Upon system power-up, the TAS01 module will undergo an internal self-test.
  • Observe any status indicators on the module's front panel (refer to Figure 2) for proper initialization. Consult the system's main documentation for specific indicator meanings.
  • The module will then establish communication with the host controller or other compatible modules within the system.

3.2 Functional Operation

The TAS01 module continuously monitors and processes sequence of events data. Its operation is typically managed through the overarching control system software. Users should refer to the specific control system's programming and configuration manuals for detailed operational parameters and data interpretation.

4. Maintenance

The ABB TAS01 module is designed for robust and reliable operation with minimal routine maintenance. However, periodic checks and proper handling are recommended to ensure longevity.

4.1 General Care

  • Cleaning: If necessary, gently clean the module's exterior with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth. Do not use liquid cleaners or solvents.
  • Environmental Control: Ensure the operating environment adheres to the specified temperature and humidity ranges to prevent component degradation.
  • Visual Inspection: Periodically inspect the module for any signs of physical damage, loose connections, or unusual discoloration.

4.2 Module Replacement

In the event of a module failure, replacement should be performed by qualified personnel following the safety precautions outlined in Section 2.1. Ensure the replacement module is of the correct model and revision (TAS01, Revision E).
