I would like to ask: given the total number of points in a DCS system, how are AI, AO, DI, and DO calculated respectively?

I know the total number of points in the DCS system, as well as the percentages for AI, AO, DI, DO, and redundancy. I’m wondering how to calculate the number of cards required for each component. If anyone has information on this, please let me know; I’m a beginner in DCS systems. I want to learn * it a bit.

First, check what system you are using, as different systems have different numbers of card slots. After determining the channels for each card, reserve one or two additional channels for each of them; in total, this amounts to 10% to 20% of extra channels.

It’s best to use a straightforward method and verify each one individually; DCS doesn’t allow for approximations – verification is necessary

It’s a JX300XP system; before it was equipped with an XP313, and now it has been replaced with an XP351. It seems that there are many fewer card components now compared to before. There used to be XP362(B) and XP363(B) as well, but those are no longer available

You mean to count each cage one by one; now we know the total number, but we don’t know how the card count is determined – it stops at this point.

The DCS system is different; the number of card slots it has may also vary, so it’s impossible to determine

Is it a new project or an existing one? Of course, the DCS can directly display the number of design points; but can you confirm exactly how many points are connected?

Redundancy refers to the card, right? How can there be redundancy in the points?
Reply #92017-09-16
It is the redundant points designed when setting the point values; in reality, it represents redundancy in the cards

In two aspects, it can be counted from the configuration, and the other aspect can be counted from the on-site cabinets
