 Sub Rack Configurations

The VESDA Sub Rack can be configured thousands of different ways. For ease
of configuration, this guide includes a configuration worksheet. It can be
printed and used as required. NOTE: You are required to choose a module for
each of these four positions. The modules will be assembled in the
configuration you specify - from left to right. Position 1 is the far left position,
while Position 4 is the far right.

Position Position Position Position

IMPORTANT:

• The Sub-Rack mounts on any standard 19” rack . Sub-Rack Enclosures are also
available.
• Front and Back Modules are preconfigured on the following pages. However, if
you purchase spare modules it is important to note:

a. All programmers and displays require remote termination cards.

b. Every relay termination card requires a display or relay processor board.
c. If you are using the sub rack for remote relays only, you must have a relay
processor board in each position that has a relay!

 Configure Your Sub Rack

How To Self-Configure Your 19” Sub Rack:

Introduction:
Sub Rack configurations include the options for both “Front” and “Back” Modules. A
Front module is a display, programmer, or VESDAnet socket. Back modules are remote
termination cards with a variety of relay options. To configure your Sub Rack, use the
matrix that follows. To check some of your configurations, see the pre-configured
samples.
The “Empty” Sub Rack:
VSR - 0000 is a 19” Sub-Rack without VLP Modules. Once modules are added, the part
number will change as appropriate. VSR-0000 has four positions for modules. Choose a
P/N Digit for each of these positions.
Simply Follow These Steps:
• Start with the empty rack, Part Number, VSR-0000.
• Choose the modules you want in positions 1 through 4.
• Configure your Part Number by adding the appropriate P/N Digit after the prefix VSR.
The P/N Digit is shown on the matrix. P/N Digits must be inserted for each of the four
positions.

Pre-configured Examples:

VSR-2100: 19” Sub Rack with 1 Standard Display with 7-

relay remote termination card in position 1 and a
Programmer in position 2. Blank plates are in position 3
and 4.

VSR-4423: 19” Sub Rack with: 2 Scanner Displays with 7-

relay remote termination cards in positions 1 and 2. A
Standard Display with 7-relay remote termination card
occupies position 3 and a VESDAnet Socket is in position
4.
