Why must the three MP 3009X processors stay aligned?
A
Each module represents one TMR channel. Compatible hardware and firmware preserve synchronized execution and voting.
Q
Which MP 3009X memory remains retained after a power interruption?
A
The 2 MB SRAM is battery backed. The 256 MB DRAM is working memory and is not retained.
Q
What role does the 1 Gbps TriBus play in MP 3009X?
A
It carries synchronization and comparison traffic between the three processor channels for deterministic voting.
Q
Can MP 3009X directly replace an earlier Tricon processor?
A
It should not be treated as a universal drop-in unit. Chassis generation, processor set, firmware and project compatibility must be evaluated together.
Q
What is the isolated RS-232 port used for on MP 3009X?
A
It provides an electrically isolated connection for diagnostic analysis and maintenance access.
