Page 69: Cpu With Security
CPU Module Real Time Clock (RTC) The CPU includes a low drift RTC. The date and time are retained using an on-board rechargeable lithium battery. The CPU date and time can be set using the ACE3600 STS. The CPU can also be synchronized with other RTUs in the system, using the system clock.
Page 70 CPU Module Power-up and Restart The CPU requires DC voltage provided by the power supply module via the motherboard (when the PS switch is ON). The CPU will power-up and restart in the range of 10.8V to 16V DC. During power-up, the processor performs fast memory tests, initiates the RTU and starts the user program (if one was downloaded).
Page 71: Cpu Status And Diagnostics
CPU Module Power-down When the voltage provided to the CPU module drops below the minimum level, the CPU will shut down in an orderly fashion. This level is configurable for all power supply modules other than the 12V DC power supply low-tier. See the ‘Minimum DC operation voltage’ parameter in Appendix A: Site Configuration Parameters of the ACE3600 STS User Guide.

Page 197: I/O Expansion
I/O EXPANSION General Description The ACE3600 RTU includes the option of expanding the number of I/O modules controlled by a single CPU module on the main frame. The I/O expansion frames can be co-located with RTU on the main frame (installed in the same 19” rack or cabinet) or distributed in the same site (up to 50 meters from the main frame.)
Page 198 I/O Expansion Figure 16-1 provides a general view of an ACE3600 CPU with a single I/O expansion frame. The expansion module on the I/O expansion frame is connected using a crossed LAN cable to the CPU 3640 on the main frame (Port Eth1.) The expansion power supply on the I/O expansion frame is attached via DC cable to the power supply on the main frame.
Page 199 I/O Expansion Figure 16-2 provides a general view of an ACE3600 CPU with multiple I/O expansion frames (two to seven.) The CPU on the main frame (Port Eth1) is connected using a LAN cable to the LAN switch on the main frame (Port Eth1-M). The expansion modules on each of the seven I/O expansion frames are connected using a LAN cable to the expansion LAN switch (Eth2- Eth8) on the main frame.

Expansion Module Setting the Frame Number The expansion module shipped from the factory is set by default to 1. If more than one I/O expansion frame is added, this frame number (also known as frame ID) must be changed. Procedure 17-1 describes how to set the expansion frame number using the rotary selector switch on the front panel of the expansion module.
Page 210 Expansion Module the frame number will not be changed. A message will be logged in the Error Logger notifying the user of the switch change (specifying the actual frame number.) If the frame number was set to a number other than 1-9/A-D before power-up, the expansion module will restart itself continually until the frame number is changed.

ACE3600 RTU-to-ACE3600 RTU Connection Using MDLC Protocol through RS485 To establish a link between more than two ACE3600 RTUs using MDLC protocol, the ports of all RTUs should be defined as RS485 RTU multidrop. The ports of the RTUs should be connected using the RS485 connection box V186AD (FLN3641A).
Page 368 Appendix C: Accessories, Adaptors and Cables ACE3600 RTU-to-MOSCAD RTU Connection Using MDLC Protocol through RS485 To establish a link between an ACE3600 unit and a MOSCAD RTU using MDLC protocol, the ports of both RTUs should be defined as RS485 RTU multidrop. The ports of the two RTUs should be connected using the FKN8527A cable.
Page 369 CPU’s ETH1 port must be configured either as Static LAN or as I/O Expansion Comm. Connect the CPU’s ETH1 port and the expansion module’s Exp. Eth1 port using an Ethernet crossover cable, with wiring as in ACE3600 RTU-to-PC Ethernet Port Direct Connection without Hub above.
Page 370 Therefore, any standard Ethernet cable may be used. The ACE3600 RTU main CPU can be connected to an expansion module via one or two expansion LAN switches. The CPU’s ETH1 port must be configured either as Static LAN or as I/O Expansion Comm.
Page 371: Appendix D: Ace3600 Maximum Power Ratings
The tables below list the typical maximum power consumption (at room temperature) for each of the ACE3600 RTU building blocks (CPU, Power Supply, I/O modules, radios, etc.) and the maximum peak power allowed for a fully loaded RTU, based on the housing type.

Page 376: Appendix E: Cpu And Power Supply Redundancy
APPENDIX E: CPU AND POWER SUPPLY REDUNDANCY General The ACE3600 CPU and power supply redundant configuration enables installation of two redundant CPUs (CPU3680 only) and two redundant power supply modules. The redundant CPU configuration is supported only by the CPU 3680 module, which enables motherboard Ethernet interconnection between the two CPUs.
Page 377: Redundant Cpu
Appendix E: CPU and Power Supply Redundancy Figure E-1 ACE3600 Redundant CPU and Power Supply Configuration Redundant CPU Redundant CPU Behavior • When redundant CPUs (ACE3680 only) are used, the CPU in the leftmost CPU slot (to the right of the first power supply) is the primary CPU. The CPU in the rightmost CPU slot is the secondary CPU.
Page 378: Redundant Power Supply
Appendix E: CPU and Power Supply Redundancy becomes active. Redundancy switchover occurs within 10 msec of loss of active CPU control (i.e. if the active CPU does not reset the watchdog for more than 5 msec, if the active CPU resets, or if the active CPU is removed from its slot.) The ACE3680 CPUs include an internal Ethernet 100 Mb/s port used for redundancy only.
Page 379 Appendix E: CPU and Power Supply Redundancy It is also possible to order a secondary 12V power supply (dual power supply configuration) instead of the blank power supply module. In this case a dual power cable connecting between the Power junction box and the two power supplies will be provided too. Note: The redundant power supply configuration can be ordered with the 12V power supply only.
