Page 8 of 27 July 2005 UM-6800A Rev1.3
CPU Function
• Monitoring external inputs from vital input boards and non-vital input
boards
• Processing vital external inputs and executing logic defined in the
application software
• Driving vital output boards as required by the application program
• Monitoring and controlling serial communication ports (links to other
controllers)
• Testing individual vital input and output channels for faults (in parallel
with control of these channels) and responding to detected faults
• Monitoring system internal operation for faults and responding to detected
faults
• Controlling power to vital outputs through the card file power supply and
an external VCOR (fail-safe function)
• Recording system faults and routine events in user-accessible memory
