# Operating the Rack Control Module (RCM)

#### **The TD100 System With Rack Control Overview**

- The 4 main components for a basic TD100 system 
    - TD100 Transmitter
    - Dual-rod or Coaxial Probe
    - Finch II Display. Note that Finch II-W and Finch II-6W are referred to as Finch II in this overview.
    - Wire Kit
- The rack control components 
    - Rack Control Module (RCM)
    - Titan-Supplied Optic and Thermistor Sockets

#### **RCM Operation**

There are no operator controls.

The only thing a driver needs to do is check that the **Permit** light is **green** when you connect to the rack.

**No** lights or **red** Permit light **denies** loading at the rack.

Ensure all TD100 system **alarms** have been **cleared**.

#### **RCM Description**

The RCM and Titan-supplied Optic and Thermistor API sockets communicate with the rack controller.

The RCM **permits** or **denies** loading at the rack.

The RCM Permit light is green when all conditions reported by the TD100 system are safe for loading.

#### **RCM Troubleshooting**

![](https://help.titanlogix.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Nov-06-2024-06-29-20-3381-PM.png?width=358&height=257&name=image-png-Nov-06-2024-06-29-20-3381-PM.png)

The RCM automatically resets the **permit** light to **green** when the **HH** and **Spill** alarms have been cleared and **inactive** for over **1 minute** while the compartment is **empty**.

Incorrect system operation or **Error** codes **do not** automatically **reset** the permissive.

The fault must be resolved and then power to the RCM turned off and on to reset the permit light to **green.**

If the **permit** light remains **red** or off while the **Finch II** Display indicates that all conditions are safe:

- Turn the system **power** **off** and back **on** again.
- **Acknowledge** any active alarms.
- **Confirm** on the Finch II Display that no alarms are active.

If the permit light is not **green**, it’s time to head back to the shop.
