An industry PC with a 24 V power supply can optionally be fitted with an
uninterruptible power supply, which maintains correct operation of the
device for about 15 minutes by means of a NiCad battery, after failure of
the main power supply. The control is performed by the C2000BAT UPS
control board.

The UPS control board is fitted with a simple form of protection against
reverse battery connection. If the battery is accidentally connected with the
wrong polarity, high current flows for a short period, and this blows the fuse
(3,15 A) on the C2000BAT board. The location of the fuse on the board
can be seen in figure 1. There is also a fuse (8 A) inside the battery, to
provide short circuit.
The UPS control board allows the LCD back light to be switched on and off
by means of a switch on the side of the housing, or by software through the
PIO chips on the C1230S. Switching the LCD back light off can save
current under battery operation. If the software has switched the back light
off when under battery power, it can be switched on again using the switch.

hardware installed in the IPC, giving the software time to save all its data.
This time may be only app. 4 minutes with devices of higher energy
consumption.

Connecting the Battery
Normally, the battery is mounted in an control cabinet, near to the industrial
PC. The fixing on DIN rail enables a simple and quick mounting and
demounting.
The connection of the 24 VDC to the battery should be made via a cable
with 2 x 1.5mm². The transmission of the 24VDC and the UPS-voltage is
made via a cable with 4 x 1.5mm² (see .figure). At the end of the cable, the
version of the connecting plug is connected, according to the PC series.

Installing the UPS
Installing the UPS
Two different circuit boards can be used to drive the UPS: the CP-Link card
CP9030, or the interface card C1230S. See appendix technical data for
detailed information.
The UPS can be configured under Windows NT/2000/XP with TwinCAT CP
or under Windows 95/98/NT with the ActiveX component CP9090-S100.
Configuration under TwinCAT
Configure the CP link card CP9030
Start the TwinCAT System Manager and click with the right mouse button
onto I/O devices. Choose append device.
Choose the I/O device Beckhoff Panel-Link (CP9030)

Installing the UPS
Make sure, that the address of the driving CP link card is correct. Click
onto the tab UPS to complete the configuration of this device.
In order to activate the UPS under TwinCAT, the check box Use UPS must
be selected. The wait time dictates the period of time before the PC will
shut down after failure of the external supply voltage.

The charging system
An integrated charger ensures that the battery is always kept fully charged.
The charging current is 1/3 of the full capacity, i.e. about 200-800 mA. The
charging procedure therefore takes up to 4 hours, depending on the charge
already in and the aging of the battery. Overcharging, and consequent
damage to the battery, is prevented through the use of an integrated
charging controller.
