4.1.6 /DF1 - /DF4 (Drive Fault)
Drive fault channel I to IV. Input to MAC4 from VME4ST amplifier. A high level on this
signal to MAC4 indicates that the power amplifier is OK.
Note 1
:
Important !
Close the jumpers BR8, BR12, BR16, BR20 on MAC4-STP to adapt
the four /DF inputs, respectively, for TTL-level inputs. If the jumpers are not closed, the
inputs are configured for +24V level inputs, and will not work.
Note 2
: When the VME4ST amplifier is not inserted into its VME slot, the drive fault inputs
of the MAC4 unit are low, thus indicating drive fault.
