The Abaco Systems VMIVME-2210-100 is a 64-channel momentary relay board for VMEbus-based industrial automation and control systems. This 6U double Eurocard module delivers magnetic latching relay outputs with integrated built-in test (BIT) capability for real-time and offline fault detection. The dual-pole relay architecture dedicates one contact pole to user switching while the second pole supports BIT logic, enabling continuous monitoring of relay contact integrity and driving register status. Relays maintain state through power interruptions until commanded to change, protecting system status during supply loss.
