Cradle Management

Presentation

The cradle management application is performed by the predefined application 1. In addition, the user-defined application allows the assignment of the cradle position to available digital outputs for local indication.

NOTE:

The cradle and the drawer applications cannot be configured together.
The cradle management application for MasterPacT MTZ circuit breakers is performed by the EIFE interface, not by the IO module. For more information, refer to the EIFE Embedded Ethernet Interface User Guide.

Input/Output Assignment

The tables below list the possible assignment of the digital inputs and outputs, according to the predefined application selected in the IO module:

Inputs	Predefined Application Selected
Inputs	1	2	3	4	5	6	7	8	9 (IO1)	9 (IO2)
Cradle connected position contact (CE)	I1	–	I1	–	–	–	–	–	–	I1
Cradle disconnected position contact (CD)	I2	–	I2	–	–	–	–	–	–	I2
Cradle test position contact (CT)	I3	–	I3	–	–	–	–	–	–	I3

NOTE: For ComPacT NSX or PowerPacT H-, J-, and L-frame circuit breakers:

The cradle test position contact is not applicable.
I3 must be always wired to have I3=1.
