Offering twenty "A-card" slots, the "10K1 / 10K2" is the
largest of the System 10 "A-sized"
mainframes. It is intended for high-speed front-end data acquisition
and logging applications where a fairly large number of transducer inputs
and analog/logic control signals are involved (up to 160 analog I/O, up to 320
logic I/O), but where auxiliary communications or
digital data processing functions such as "history" recording
are not required.
While
the Model 10K1C has no integral data display provisions, the Model
10K2D (shown above) is equipped with a front-panel 8-line, 12-channel vacuum
fluorescent (VFD) display (140 x 35 mm; see the typical display shown below). Up to 40
individual VFD "pages" can be created and stored. Each
page can be dedicated to up to twelve user-specified data channels.
Display of system TIME and DATE is automatically included, along with
per-channel limit-status indication: an ARROW following the data
reading points UP for a "HI LIMIT" violation, DOWN for a
"LO LIMIT" violation, and LEFT for an "OK" (no
violation) value. A four-character unit legend for each channel's
"live" reading can be entered. A simple PAGE
(PAG) command calls individual pages to display.

When
equipped with the Satellite Operation
("S") Option, the 10K1C (only) may act as a
standard "node" within a System 10 Satellite
Network.
The
following diagrams show the basic physical layout of the "10K1 / 10K2"
mainframes.

*
Up to 1000 channels can be handled by the Model 10K1C when the "S"
(Satellite) Option is present.
** Assumes all "A Slots" are dedicated to analog I/O only
(with eight channels per slot).
*** Assumes all "A Slots" are dedicated to logic I/O only;
requires one optional Model 10AIO-16 Logic
I/O Card for every group of 16 bits to serve as logic I/O. |
