Periodic Data Transmitted PGNs
PGN 127501 – Binary Switch Bank Status
The RIM100 uses this PGN to transmit the state of each of the connected switch inputs
Field 1: Indicator Bank Instance – This field identifies the particular switch bank to which this
PGN applies. Please refer to Section 2.5.1 for instructions on how to program the
value of this field.
2: Indicator #1 – This field indicates the state of the switch connected to the V1+ and
V1- inputs of the RIM100. The state will be one of the following values:
• “Off” – No voltage is detected on the monitored load (the load is not running).
• “On” – A voltage is detected on the monitored load (the load is running).
• “Data Not Available” – The indicator is configured as “Disabled”
3: Indicator #2 – This field indicates the state of the switch connected to the V2+ and
V2- inputs of the RIM100.
4: Indicator #3 – This field indicates the state of the switch connected to the V3+ and
V3- inputs of the RIM100.
5: Indicator #4 – This field indicates the state of the switch connected to the V4+ and
V4- inputs of the RIM100.
6: Indicator #5 – This field indicates the state of the switch connected to the V5+ and
V5- inputs of the RIM100.
7: Indicator #6 – This field indicates the state of the switch connected to the V6+ and
V6- inputs of the RIM100.
