INSTALLATION & OPERATING MANUAL

8.2 To the right are two pairs of terminal blocks for making connections to one or two

strings of batteries. Batteries are connected to the internal system bus via two
magnetic circuit breakers on the front of the unit, each rated at 100A. These circuit
breaker provides two functions.

8.2.1 In the rst instance they enable the user to disconnect the batteries from the

system for maintenance, replacement or other purposed.

8.2.2 The second function is to protect the batteries against excessive charge or

discharge current. Note that charge current is normally managed by the
built-in digital controller.

8.3 T o the left of the DC load terminals there is a 9-way D sub connector marked RS232

mark J3.

This connector provides a ‘console’ only function to UNIPOWER service personnel

and should not be connected to for any other purpose.

8.4 Immediately to the left of the RS232 connector is a bank of 18 Spring Clamp T erminals

designated J2. These terminals provide connections for the battery temperature
compensation probe, additional external temperature probe, the relay alarm outputs
and one auxiliary digital input. They are described in detail in section 10.

8.5 T o the left is the Ethernet TCP/IP connector J1. This connection uses a standard RJ45

Network connector . It is used to connect either to a Local Area Network or directly
to a PC with network connection, the latter using a standard cross-over cable.

The primary means of setting up the X100 unit is via it’ s built-in WEB server , which

is accessed using a WEB browser via this Ethernet TCP/IP connection.

8.6 To the bottom right hand side of the unit are the AC input terminals. Three pairs

of screw terminals designated L1, N1, L2, N2, L3 & N3 provide for connection of

individual AC supplies to each of the installed rectiers. In addition there are three

safety ground connections just below. Once installed a plastic insulator provides
protection against accidental touching of the live AC terminals.

IMPORTANT NOTE: DO NOT CONNECT THE UNIT SUCH THA T MORE THAN

264VAC WILL BE P RESENT BETWEEN THE LIVE AND NEUTRAL TERMINALS
OF ANY ONE INLET SOCKET. SUCH CONNECTION MAY BE HAZARDOUS,
WILL DAMAGE THE UNIT AND INVALIDATE THE WARRANTY.

10.0 MAKING CONNECTIONS TO THE X100

10.1 DC Load Connections

The DC load distribution connections at the rear left of the unit are clearly marked

as follows:

10.1.1 Option A – 1-8 miniature circuit breaker.

Terminals marked 1-8 are used for breakers marked 1-8 respectively. Each

circuit has a FEED and a RETURN (RTN) connection. Terminals marked
9 and 10 are not used.

10.1.2 Option B - GMT Fuses.

Terminals marked 1-10 are used for fuse marked 1-10 respectively. Each

circuit has a FEED and a RETURN (RTN) connection.

X100 SERIES

INSTALLATION & OPERATING MANUAL

10.1.3 Option C - 1-4 bulk circuit breaker.

To allow for the possibility of individual load circuits providing in excess of

30A this conguration uses two pairs of screw terminals linked together by

a small bus bar for each circuit. T erminals marked 1&2, 3&4, 5&6 and 7&8
respectively are used for Breakers 1 to 4 respectively. Terminals marked 9
and 10 are not used.

Note that in the case of -48VDC system the ‘feed’ terminals ar e at a negative potential

with respect to the ‘r eturn’ terminals. In the case of +24VDC and +12VDC systems
the ‘feed’ terminals are at a positive potential with respect to the ‘r eturn’ terminals.

When connecting to the DC load terminals it is important to ensure that the cables

used are adequately sized to carry the expected load current for the circuit in question.

The maximum current rating for the individual load terminals is 30A for options A

and B or 50A for option C, but where long cable runs to the load are expected care
should be taken to avoid unacceptable cable voltage drop; this is most likely to occur
at currents in excess of 20A if only a single feed and return cable are employed. It

is recommended that for circuits where a 20A or greater breaker is tted pairs of

feed and return cables are installed.

INSTALLATION & OPERATING MANUAL

10.2 Battery Connections

The X100 can be connected to two separate battery strings through the battery

two pairs of IMO ER35 terminal blocks. These terminals accept cables in the
range 10AWG to 2AWG. A minimum cable size of 4AWG is recommended when
employing only the internal 100A circuit breakers for protection (see section 8.2).
If a battery string is separately provided with a lower rated circuit breakers or fuse
then smaller gauge cables may be used as appropriate.

10.3 Alarm Relay and Battery Temperature Probe Connections – J2

Connection to the Form-C alarm relay outputs is made through the 18-way spring

clamp terminal connector . There are a total of 4 relay outputs with Normally Open,
Normally Closed and Common Contacts available for connection. The individual

relay contact sets are fully isolated and may be oated from GROUND by up to 100V.

Maximum contact current and voltage are 1A and 30V (DC or AC) respectively.
This connector accepts wire sizes from #28AWG to #10AWG.

The alarm relays are designated K1 to K4. K1 and K2 are pre-programmed for

MAJOR and MINOR alarm conditions by default. K3 and K4 are not programmed
for any alarm function by default and may be programmed using the Alarm
CongurationWEB page described later in section 12.

Connection of the supplied battery temperature probe, if required, is made using

terminals 1 and 2 of this same spring clamp terminal connector . An optional external
temperature probe may also be connected using terminals 3 and 4. Terminals 5 and
6 allow connection of a volt free contact closure input.

3. Connect the AC power cables to the AC source.

4. Check that the green LED on the front panel has lit. After approximately 20
seconds for initialization the MAJA LED at least will light. The RFA LED

may also light, dependent on the number of rectiers installed at the time.

5. Set the battery circuit breaker to the ON position. Then set the load breakers
to the ON position and/or insert the GMT fuses.

After approximately 5 seconds the status of various alarm LEDs will change,

dependent on the number of rectiers installed.

Using the WEB browser interface described in section 12 it is now possible to check

overall system status for correct operation.

In particular, it is important to ensure that the load current reading does not exceed

the maximum capacity of the installed rectiers or, where N+1 operation is required,
the maximum capacity of one less than the total number of rectiers installed. Note

also, that the system should have been sized so that a proportion of the available

rectier capacity is allocated for battery charging. Where N+1 redundant operation
is used the additional ‘spare’ rectier will normally provide this current.

IMPORTANT NOTES:

a) It is not possible to start the system by connecting the batteries alone.

b) During the 30 seconds initialization period the system bus voltage will be at the

factory preset level of the rectiers; nominally 54.4V, 27.2V or 13.6V depending

on system voltage. After this period the internal controller will lower the output

voltage by approximately 15% in order to limit current owing to the batteries.

During a following period of approximately 30 minutes the controller will ramp

the system voltage up to the correct oat voltage as determined by the temperature

compensation algorithm.

This ‘walk-in’ function can be disabled via the controller WEB interface if it not

required.

12.0 USING THE CONTROLLER WEB BROWSER INTERFACE

The X100 controller is provided with a built-in WEB server which can be accessed through
the TCP/IP Ethernet port using a WEB browser. The WEB server employs Java Applets to
continually scan system parameters and update the WEB page data. These same Applets
return programming data to the DSC1000 when set-up changes need to be made.

The WEB server communicates with the browser using HTTP on IP Port 80 and the Java

Applets on IP Port 8888. If any rewall or proxies are congured on the LAN that the

DSC1000 is connected to it is important to ensure that these ports are open, otherwise the
DSC1000 will not respond.

A genuine Java engine must be installed on the browser PC. The latest version can be
downloaded and installed for free from www.java.com. Please note that installing only a

browser plugin may not be sufcient for correct operation; so we recommend installing a

full Java package.

X100 SERIES

If the installed version of Java is 7u45 or earlier the following procedure “Setting up Java”
is not required for correct operation and cannot be implemented.

PLEASE NOTE THA T THE APPLETS WILL NOT WORK WITH JAV A VERSION 7u51.
DO NOT INSTALLED THIS ON SYSTEMS USED TO MONITOR THE DSC1000.

WITH EFFECT FROM VERSION 7u60 THE FOLLOWING MUST BE IMPLEMENTED.

Setting up Java (7u60 or later only)

In order for the applets to be loaded correctly , you must add the IP address of the controller
to the list of site exceptions in the java control panel. This can be found in the computer’s
control panel. Once the java control panel is open, select the Security tab as below.

The controller has various network programming capabilities which allow it to be connected

to almost any conguration of IP network.

The default network settings that the controller is shipped with are:

IP Address – 192.168.000.200
Subnet Mask – 255.255.255.000
Gateway – 000.000.000.000

All pages served by the controller’s built-in WEB server consist of two frames; a ‘navigation’
frame on the left hand side and an ‘information/programming’ frame which occupies the
majority of the browser window.

The buttons in the ‘navigation’ frame can be used at all times to jump between the various
pages. Clicking on the UNIPOWER logo at the top will navigate directly to the UNIPOWER
web site www.unipowerco.com.

Each of the blocks of information in the ‘information/programming’ frame is a Java applet.
In some cases these applets simply collect information from the controller and presents it

on-screen, in other cases the applets contain data entry elds for uploading programming

information to the unit.

Note that a PC screen resolution of 1024 x 768 or higher is recommended to avoid excessive
amounts of page scrolling.

The following sections describe the various WEB pages that can be viewed with the browser
and give details of programming parameters that may be entered and sent to the unit.

6. Alarms

These are all part of one alarm status ag held within the controller.

ACFAIL - Indicates an AC Failure detected by the power supply rectiers or an external

sensor.

MAJOR - Indicates that a major alarm condition requiring immediate attention has been

detected by the controller.

MINOR - Indicates that a minor alarm condition requiring attention at the next scheduled

maintenance has been detected by the controller.

SINGLE RECTIFIER FAILURE (SRFA) - The controller has detected that a single rectier

has failed

MULTI RECTIFIER F AILURE (MRFA) - The controller has detected that multiple rectiers

have failed.

OVER TEMPERATURE ALARM (OTA) - The controller has detected an over temperature

condition on battery/external/controller temperature sensor.

OVER VOLTAGE ALARM (OVA) - The controller has detected an over voltage condition

on the bus.

UNDER VOLT AGE ALARM (UV A) - The controller has detected an under voltage condition

on the bus.

END VOLT AGE ALARM (EVA) - The controller has detected an End Voltage condition, i.e.

the batteries are near end of discharge.

LOW VOLTAGE DISCONNECT ALARM (LVD) - The controller has detected that one of

the LVDs is open.

FUSE ALARM - The controller has detected that a fuse or breaker is open.

CHECK BATTERY (CHKBAT) - The controller has detected a fault with the battery string(s)

either temperature or current related.

COMMUNICATION FAULT (COMM) - The controller has detected a problem with the

internal I²C bus.
