System Integration & Functions
Features:
- Battery and Key switch Module
- Two batteries (one for each Control Processor)
- The Battery and Key switch Module (BKM-0001) is located in the Controller chassis
The BKM-0001 module contains non-rechargeable (lithium) batteries that supply the back-up power to maintain the diagnostic messages, the real time clock on the QPP modules and FTE IP addresses, in case of a power outage. As the batteries are not recharged, the used back-up time is accumulating. The total back-up time of the lithium cells is approximately 3 months.
If the system is switched off for a longer period (and during transport), the batteries can be switched off with the battery switch on the module. It is recommended to replace the batteries every five years and after every substantial discharge period. Replacing the batteries requires no special tools. The side plate of the BKM-0001 module has an opening to enable battery replacement and battery-switch operation.
The FC-BKM-0001 V1.1 Honeywell Battery and Key switch Module may still be available for purchase and support from Moore Automated Company beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).

The diagnostics for the BKM-0001 include:
BKM-0001 not placed.
Battery voltage out of ranges (too high, too low and open circuit).
Data Retention: A built-in backup battery saves internal system diagnostic logs, database parameters, and the real-time clock (RTC) in the event of a mains power failure.
Access Control: An integrated physical security key switch allows factory technicians to switch system operating states, authorize online modifications, or securely disable safety interlocks.
Size: The slim, single-slot design allows for installation in standard industrial control cabinets and direct connection via integrated terminal connectors.
