The CPU card is the system’s central unit and contains the fire and gas system, flash memory, a buffered static RAM, a watchdog circuit and an Ethernet controller with an RJ 45 Ethernet output connector. The CPU card can be used in either single or redundant configuration with two CPU’s operating in parallel. Both CPU’s process information, but only one is the primary. Once the primary CPU stops operating, the other immediately takes over without disrupting ongoing operations or losing captured events. In addition to the micro-controller, the card has a flash memory, a buffered RAM, a watchdog circuit and an Ethernet controller with an RJ 45 Ethernet output connector.
