RCI-200 Configuration: 

 
The RCI-200 requires no configuration other than for its communication fail operation.  In the event of a 
communications  failure  on  the  communications  board,  the  RCI-200  can  be  set  up  to  take  various 
actions on its outputs.  This may be desirable in order to place connected devices into a safe operating 
mode.  By default factory setting, all outputs remain at their last known state if a communications failure 
occurs. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

*  If  H1-3=IN  then  analog  output  #1  will  ramp  to  the 

setting  of  K1  and  analog  output  #2  will  ramp  to  the 
setting  of  K2.    Both  outputs  will  change  at  a  rate 
determined  by  the  setting  of  K3.  The  settings  of  the 
trim  pots  can  be  read  on  test  points  TP

1,2,3

  using  a 

voltmeter.  The test points read a voltage of 0-5V for a 
0-100% adjustment.
