1PC BENTLY NEVADA Bentley 125760-01

Description

The Rack Interface Module (RIM) is the primary interface to the 3500 rack. It supports a proprietary protocol used to configure the rack and retrieve machinery information.125760-01The RIM must be located in slot 1 of the rack (next to the power supplies).

The RIM supports compatible Bently Nevada external communications processors such as TDXnet, TDIX, and DDIX. While the RIM provides certain functions common to the entire rack, the RIM is not part of the critical monitoring path and has no effect on the proper, normal operation of the overall monitoring system.125760-01One RIM is required per rack.

For Triple Modular Redundant (TMR) applications, the 3500 System requires a TMR version of the RIM. In addition to all the standard RIM functions, the TMR RIM also performs "monitor channel comparison." The 3500 TMR configuration implements monitor voting using the setup specified in the monitor options.125760-01Using this method, the TMR RIM continually compares the outputs from three (3) redundant monitors. If the TMR RIM detects that the information from one of those monitors is no longer within a configured percentof the information of the other two monitors, it will flag that the monitor is in error and place an event in the System Event List.

Note

Triple Modular Redundant (TMR) applications require the use of the 3500/34 TMR Relay Module. Consult Bently Nevada Specification and Ordering.
