CHAPTER 2 System Setup • General • Rack Mounting • Panel mounting
Chapter 2 System Setup 2.1 General When you receive your workstation you will find a backplane, power supply, and floppy disk drive already installed. Further setup of the AWS-8248V is easy. All you have to do is slide out its work drawer module, install a CPU card, optional hard disk drive and whatever additional I/O cards your application requires. Warning! 1. Do not begin your installation until you are sure there is no power flowing within the AWS8248V.
2.2 Rack mounting The AWS-8248 can be mounted in a 19" rack. Ensure that all addi-tional equipment has been installed correctly and that the cabling has been reattached. (See Fig. 2-7) Remove the screw covers on the front panel. Attach the case to the rack using screws on both sides. Figure 2.
2.3 Panel mounting Panel mounting the AWS-8248 is easy. Just line up the holes in the panel aperture and the holes on the panel, and then secure the AWS-8248 to the panel with the mounting bolts. Figure 2.
CHAPTER 3 Programming KBT-2002 Macro Keys • Introduction • Macro Keys • Using Main.
Chapter 3 Programming KBT-2002 Macro Keys 3.1 Introduction The KBT-2002 is equipped with programmable function keys (macro keys) that greatly enhances the operating interface. Macros, which are far more powerful than batch files; automate the most commonly used input sequences. They extend their functional reach within application programs. 3.2 Macro keys Macro keys (SF1 , SF2 ,...SF10) Ten programmable macro keys are located on the front panel of the workstation. Macro keys (SF11 , SF12 ,...
There ís an example within the subdirectory of the utility disk. Go into this subdirectory and look for a .txt file that corresponds to your workstation, for example, AWS8420.txt. You can use this file under the macro key edit program to practice. Note 1: The keyboard translator utility main.exe program can be run under DOS mode only. Note 2: The following windows illustrations are examples only. You must follow the instruction and pay attention to the instructions which appears on you screen. 3.
Choose Load in the function and press the enter key. Key in the file name that you edited in this program before. To practice, you can choose, for example, the AWS8420.txt in the example in the utility disk. After reading the file, press Esc key to leave this mode. Whether you have loaded the old file or not, choose Edit in the main menu and press enter to go into the edit mode. You can see the operating guide at the bottom of the screen.
n this sub screen, you can key in any character string that you want to see when pressing this macro key, or any signs. You can also key in the names of the function keys of the keyboard; but please add a [ ] sigh. The number characters you key in should be under 78. After editing, press Esc key to go back to the edit mode, then you can choose other macro keys to edit. If there is no SF 11, SF1 2,...SF30 on your workstation, please ignore and do not edit them.
Choose Run in the main menu, and press Enter to go into the Run (programming) mode. You will see a sub-screen for upper key setting OFF= Press both character and upper key in the same time ON= Press upper key. Then key the character for upper layer. Press the upper key again for the lower layer PS: some membrane keypad has Upper indicator (light on=upper status) After setting the upper key, press Enter. Choose if you need the beep sound when you press the macro keys.
After the beep sound setting, press Enter and you will be asked to key in a .pad file name. Please refer to chapter 1.3. Do not use any other file names other than that of this workstation, or character definition errors might arise! After keying the file name, press Enter, The system will start to read the data in the file together with the data in the .txt file that you just edited and save to the keyboard translator board of this workstation.
After the system finished the programming, you will see a sub-screen that tells you to repeat the process again or press Esc to leave the Run mode. Note: There might be transition error when the connection cable between the CPU card and the keyboard translator is too long. If the error occurs, please turn off the workstation and use a shorter cable, then reboot the workstation and run the main.exe program again.

Appendix B Power Supply Specification • 250 watt power supply • -48 VDC power supply • 24 VDC power supply
Appendix B Power Supply Specifications B.1 Supported Input Timing Modes The AWS-8248 off-line switching power supply is ideal for use in workstations. It has been designed to meet UL, CSA and TUV safety standards. It has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. B.1.
B.2 -48 V DC power supply The following specifications describe the physical and electrical characteristics of a 310 W, four output, DC to DC switching power supply housed in a standard size PS/2 casing. B.2.1 Specifications Input voltage: 36~72V (continuous operation) -48 VDC (normal operation) Input current: 10 A max. @ -48 VDC input Inrush current: 5 A max. @ -48 VDC input Efficiency: 70% min. @ full load and normal line voltage Output characteristics: Output voltage Max Load Total Max.
Overshoot (resistive load): Any output overshoot when the power is turned on does not exceed 10% of the nominal output voltage. Output power: Maximum continuous: 310 W Power good and power fail signals (optional): When the power is turned on, the power good signal will activate 100 to 500 ms after all output DC voltages are operating within their respective regulation limits. The power fail signal will activate at least 1 ms before the +5 V output voltage falls below its regulation limit.
Reset time: When the power supply has automatically shut down, and the short circuit, over-current and/or over-voltage conditions have ceased to exist, power will be automatically recycled to restart the power supply within 3 seconds of such return to normal conditions. No load start: When the power supply is switched on but with no load connected, the power supply does not get damaged, and it is still completely safe for users.
DC Output wire list All DC output cables use UL 1007 type wires.
