www.pulsar.pl BLACK POWER PSBEN5012C 5.3 PSU configuration. The PSU is equipped with a configuration menu that allows to configure the settings by changing or the activation of some of its parameters. The figure illustrating the configuration menu structure is shown below. Fig. 7. The PSU configuration menu. Table 10. Description of symbols.
www.pulsar.pl 5.3.1 BLACK POWER PSBEN5012C Battery test ON/OFF „tSt” The "tSt" function allows to enable or disable the test of the battery (Section 6.3) connected to the power supply. When activated, the battery test occurs automatically if it is not blocked by the control system (section 6.3).
www.pulsar.pl 5.3.2 BLACK POWER PSBEN5012C LED Display Dimmer „dIS" LED display dimmer allows to dim the display if no buttons are pressed within 5 minutes.If the display is in the blackout mode, pressing any button will "reactivate" the display.
www.pulsar.pl BLACK POWER PSBEN5012C - press „OK” - the current address of the PSU will be displayed - use the „<” or „>” buttons in order to set the address 1÷ 247 – address of the PSU during the communication with the computer - confirm by pressing „OK” - in order to return to the main menu, simultaneously press the „<,>” rightmost and leftmost buttons 5.3.4 Setting the transmission speed „trS” applies to cooperation with PowerSecurity.
www.pulsar.pl 5.3.5 BLACK POWER PSBEN5012C Setting the parity of the transmission “trP” applies to cooperation with PowerSecurity. All the parameters responsible for communication between the PSU and the computer, namely the address, parity and speed should have the same settings for both the PSU and the PowerSecurity program. The PSU has preset transmission parameters of 115200 baud 8E1.
www.pulsar.pl PSBEN5012C BLACK POWER 5.5 Technical outputs. The PSU feature indication outputs, with galvanic isolation, which change their state if any of the following events occur: EPS FLT - output indicating 230 V power loss. The output indicates 230 V power loss. Under normal status (with 230 V supply on) the output is closed. In case of power failure, the PSU will switch the output into the open position after a time lag set by the TAC jumpers (J1, J2).
www.pulsar.pl PSBEN5012C BLACK POWER The electrical diagram below shows the way of connecting external devices to the EXT IN input. Outputs such as: OC (open collector), relay may be used as a source of the signal. Fig. 10. Examples of connections. In the option with tamper switches, the VEXT jumper must be on. It polarizes the EXT IN input circuit therefore is required in such configuration.
www.pulsar.pl PSBEN5012C BLACK POWER 5.8 Overvoltage protection of the PSU output OVP. In case of voltage exceeding 15,5 V±0.5 V at the switching regulator’s output, the system cuts off the power at the outputs to protect the battery and the receivers from damage. The outputs will be batterypowered. The activation of the protection system is indicated by the OVP yellow LED on the PCB board, and the PSU FLT output. 5.9 PSU overload.
www.pulsar.pl PSBEN5012C BLACK POWER 6 Reserve power supply circuit. The power supply is equipped with intelligent circuits: charging and battery control circuit, whose main task is to monitor the condition of the battery and its connections in the circuit. If the power supply driver detects a malfunction in the battery circuit, appropriate signaling and change in the APS FLT technical output take place. 6.1 Running the PSU from the battery.
www.pulsar.pl BLACK POWER PSBEN5012C 6.4 Standby time. Battery-assisted operating depends on battery capacity, charging level and load current. To maintain an appropriate standby time, current drawn from the PSU in battery mode should be limited. Characteristics for a 17 Ah/12 V SLA: Grade 1, 2 - standby time 12h Output current 1,4 A + 3 A battery charge Grade 3 - standby time 30h if the faults of the main power source are reported to the Alarm Receiving Centre - ARC (in accordance with 9.
www.pulsar.pl PSBEN5012C BLACK POWER 7. Remote monitoring (options: Ethernet, RS485). The PSU has been adjusted to operate in a system that requires a remote control of the parameters in a monitoring centre. Transmitting data concerning PSU status is possible due to an additional, external communication module responsible for communication in Ethernet or RS485 standard. Different connection topologies, presented later in this chapter, are only a part of possible communication schemes.

www.pulsar.pl PSBEN5012C BLACK POWER 9. Technical inspections and maintenance. Technical inspections and maintenance can be performed after disconnecting the power supply from the power network. The PSU does not require any specific maintenance; however, its interior should be cleaned with compressed air if it is used in dusty conditions. In case of fuse replacement, use only compatible replacement parts. Technical inspections should be carried out not less frequently than once per year.
