The Row n Set/Reset readback registers return the programmed relay state only if you 
use the module correctly.  Since the driver power can be disabled (the power-on state), 
the 

Row  n  Set

  and 

Row  n  Reset

  registers  can  be  written  to  and  read  from  without 

moving any relay contacts.  

4.

 

When the module loses power, any closed relays remain closed (latching relays).  When 
power is restored, the relays remain closed but the Row n Set and Row n Reset registers 
have lost their relay state information.  This relay information is lost whenever power is 
cycled or the carrier asserts /RESET.  You must initialize the module after a power-up 
or /RESET to achieve correlation between the Row n Set/Reset readback registers and 
the actual relay positions.  To initialize the module:  

a.

 

Enable driver power.  

b.

 

Write all four column bits to zero in each 

Row n Reset

 register.  

 
You  can  check  for  initialization  by  reading  the  Init  Status  bit.  If  the  module  has  not  been 
initialized since the last power-up or /RESET, the Init Status bit will be logic “0”. The Init Status 
bit is set to logic “1” whenever the module has been successfully initialized.  
 

1.

 

To  guarantee  break-before-make  relay  operation,  write  to  the  Row  n  Reset  registers 
before writing to the Row n Set registers.  

2.

 

It  is  important  to  use  the  FIFO  status  bits  when  writing  to  the  Row  n  Set/Reset 
registers, especially when writing in bursts (such as when resetting the module’s relays). 
Writing  to  a  Row  n Set/Reset register when the FIFO is full results in the loss of data 
since the FIFO has no room to hold it. You should always check the FIFO FULL status 
to ensure that FIFO is not full before writing to a Row n Set/Reset register.

INTERRUPTS 

 
Module interrupts are enabled by setting the INTE bit in the Control register; however, routing of 
the  m-module  interrupt  request  to  your  system  is  dependent  on  the  m-module  carrier  and  the 
system interface.  Refer to user manuals for those devices for details.
