1.4 Basic Operating Principle of the MPC 4 Card
The MPC 4 card can simultaneously process signals connected to the following input
channels:
+ Two Speed (tacho) inputs
The user can program Alert+ and Alert- thresholds for these two inputs.
+ Four Measurement inputs (for measuring vibration, dynamic pressure, etc.)
‘The user can program Alert+, Danger, Alert- and Danger- thresholds for these inputs.
As well as those 6 input channels, the MPC 4 also contains “processing channels" (see
Figure 1-3)
+ There are 4 single processing channels (Channel 1, Channel 2, Channel 3, Channel 4),
each providing two outputs (Output 1, Output 2).
