Sequence of Events

The DeltaV system supports the Sequence of Events card and the Series 2 Sequence of Events card in Simplex mode.

Installation Notes

The 32-channel terminal block is recommended to provide screw terminations for field wiring for the Sequence of Events card and the Series 2 Sequence of Events card in Simplex mode. The 40-pin mass termination block also can be used. The following table lists the cable pin out connections for the Sequence of Events card
