Paradigm Station Power Module

Paradigm Station Power Module

The Paradigm station power module (P-SPM) is designed for use in a DRd or ERn enclosure with
the Paradigm architectural control processor (P-ACP). The Paradigm station power module
provides power for up to 32 Unison architectural control stations on the topology-free LinkPower
control network.

Installation

Status Indicators

When power is applied to the ERn enclosure, the Paradigm station power module LEDs located on
the front panel illuminate, indicating the status of the auxiliary power, LinkPower control network,
and connected stations.

The Aux Power and LinkPower LEDs indicate in green when the Paradigm station power module is
connected properly and auxiliary power and LinkPower are present. When there is an unbalance in
LinkPower the fault indicators illuminate. This condition typically means that the station wiring has
a fault, however it could mean a connected device is having an issue. A qualified technician should
inspect the system wire and terminations first, then proceed to disconnecting devices to pinpoint
the fault and correct it. The power supply will update the fault indicators automatically when the fault
condition is cleared.

• If the NET A line has a fault (is shorted or has leakage to ground), the Fault + LED lights.

• If the NET B line has a fault (is shorted or has leakage to ground), the Fault - LED lights.

• If neither fault LED is illuminated the data connections are properly installed and the stations
are receiving the data and power required for operation.
