ABB NIDS01 Digital Station Termination Module
SECTION 1 - INTRODUCTION
OVERVIEW
The NIDS01 Digital Station Termination Module (IDS) used in
conjunction with the NICS01 Controller/Station Termination
Module provides bypass capability and an electric drive termi nation for IISAC01 Analog Control Stations and NDCS03 Digi tal Control Stations. NDIS01 Digital Indicator Stations can also
be connected to the termination module. An NIDS01 termina tion module connects to the NICS01 termination module with a
ribbon cable. Figure 1-1 shows an example NIDS01 applica tion.
INTENDED USER
System engineers and technicians should read this manual
before installing and placing the NIDS01 termination module
into operation. Do not put the IDS termination module into
operation until this instruction is read and understood.
INSTRUCTION CONTENT
This manual contains five sections and three appendices.
Introduction Contains an overview of the features, specifications and a
description of the IDS module.
Installation Describes precautions to observe when handling modules and
setup procedures required before module operation. This sec tion discusses dipswitch settings and installation procedures.
Maintenance Provides a maintenance schedule.
Repair/ReplacementProcedures
Details how to replace an IDS module.
Support Services Describes the support services (spare parts, training, docu mentation, etc.) available from Bailey Controls Company.
Appendices A, B and C List the information necessary to configure the IISAC01,
NDCS03 and NDIS01 stations.
HOW TO USE THIS MANUAL
Read this manual through in sequence. Read the installation
section thoroughly. Do the steps in order. Complete all steps in
the installation section before operating the IDS module. Refer
to the Table of Contents or Index to find specific information
after the module is operating.

Characteristic/Value
Power Requirements
+24 VDC from the 24 VDC bus bar of the termination mounting unit.
Outputs
The outputs of this termination unit are used by stations to control electric drive
devices.
Raise and lower signals manually raise and lower the electric drive.
Power and common signals come from the electric drive and provide power for
an external relay or device. The outputs of these terminals are 0 VDC (manual
mode) and 24 VDC (automatic mode).
Mounting
Occupies one slot in a standard INFI 90 termination mounting unit.
