1.1 Purpose
1.2 Specification
The TM117-DMX is designed for use as a multi-channel display driver.
The module has the capability of driving 64 display elements from a single communications
interface. It’s design incorporates a dual redundant configuration to ensure high availability.
The input interface of the TM117-DMX is a dual serial communications link, driven from the
MSR04X1 serial I/O card.
The TM117-DMX modules are typically used to drive LED indicators on control room operator
panels.

2.1.1 Ancillary circuits
There are two types of connection made to the DMX panel:
1. Field output connections, panel power requirements (+24V) and control logic signals to
the
2. Data communication to the panel is via 9-pin D-type connectors.
2.2 Theory of operation
2.2.1 Serial interface
The module is driven from the MSR04X1 serial communications (SIO) module using a dumb
protocol.

loop but is accepted only by those modules whose address is valid for that
message. When a device recognises its address, its communication watchdog circuit is updated.

The information sent from the SIO module contains a device address and data containing
a single display will flash together. In normal use, TM117-DMX modules are fitted in
a single motherboard. Both modules drive the same 64 outputs but
