IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
General Safety
DANGER! YOU MUST FOLLOW APPROVED SAFETY PROCEDURES.
Performing the following procedures may expose you to hazards. These procedures should be
performed by qualified technicians familiar with the hazards associated with this type of equipment.
These hazards may include shock, energy, and/or burns. To avoid these hazards:
a) The tasks should be performed in the order indicated.
b) Remove watches, rings, and other metal objects.
c) Prior to contacting any uninsulated surface or termination, use a voltmeter to verify that no voltage
or the expected voltage is present. Check for voltage with both AC and DC voltmeters prior to
making contact.
d) Wear eye protection.
e) Use certified and well maintained insulated tools. Use double insulated tools appropriately rated for
the work to be performed.
Voltages
AC Input Voltages
DANGER! This system operates from AC input voltage capable of producing fatal electrical shock. AC
input power must be completely disconnected from the branch circuits wiring used to provide power to
the system before any AC electrical connections are made. Follow local lockout/tagout procedures to
ensure upstream branch circuit breakers remain de-energized during installation. DO NOT apply AC
input power to the system until all electrical connections have been completed and checked.
DC Output and Battery Voltages
DANGER! This system produces DC power and may have a battery source connected to it. Although
the DC voltage is not hazardously high, the rectifiers and/or battery can deliver large amounts of current.
Exercise extreme caution not to inadvertently contact or have any tool inadvertently contact an output
terminal or battery terminal or exposed wire connected to an output terminal or battery terminal.
NEVER allow a metal object, such as a tool, to contact more than one termination or battery terminal at a
time, or to simultaneously contact a termination or battery terminal and a grounded object. Even a
momentary short circuit can cause sparking, explosion, and injury.
DANGER! Follow local lockout/tagout procedures to ensure DC branch circuit protection devices
remain de-energized during installation at loads, as required.

Jumper Settings on the System Interface Circuit Card
Perform the following procedure to make the required setting per your site requirements.
This procedure can also be used to make adjustment on a replacement circuit card.
Controller Power Option
This option allows the controller to remain powered if a battery LVD is furnished and it opens. The controller is
powered from the internal “system” bus. Rectifiers and battery are connected to this “system” bus, so the
controller is powered both by the rectifiers and by the battery. A jumper option allows the controller to be
powered from the “system side” of a battery LVD contactor (if furnished) or the “battery side” of a battery LVD
contactor (if furnished). Refer to Figure 16 for circuit card location and jumper location.
• Jumper in “No Battery Power” Position: The controller is powered from the “system side” of a battery
LVD contactor (if furnished). Note if a battery LVD contactor is not furnished, the controller is powered
by both rectifiers and battery. If a battery LVD contactor is furnished and opens, the controller is
powered by the rectifiers (if functional).
If you lose AC power and your BLVD opens, the controller will shut down.
• Jumper in “Battery Power” Position: The controller is powered from the “battery side” of a battery LVD
contactor (if furnished). Note if a battery LVD contactor is not furnished, the controller is powered by
both rectifiers and battery. If a battery LVD contactor is furnished and opens, the controller is powered
by the battery and the battery will drain. The controller’s power consumption is 5W.
If you lose AC power and your BLVD opens, the controller will continue to operate.
Procedure
1.Refer to Figure 16 and place the jumper on J4 in the “Battery Power” or “No Battery Power” position.

RS-485 Connection (used for Communication with SM Modules)
The RS-485 connector is located near the IB4 or IB2 board. It is a dangling connector with a red and black wire
harness.
• Red Wire (Pin 1): RS485+
• Black Wire (Pin 2): RS485-
Use cable P/N 547674 to interface with SM-AC, SM-BAT, SM-RC, or SM-IO supervisory modules.
Temperature Probes
NOTE!
Each temperature probe consists of two or three pieces that plug together to make a complete
probe. See SAG582137200 for part numbers and descriptions.
Two temperature probes can be connected to the System Interface Board. See Figure 23.
Two temperature probes can be connected to the IB2 (Controller Interface Board), if furnished. See Figure 27.
Any combination of the temperature probes can be programmed to monitor ambient temperature and/or
battery temperature. A temperature probe set to monitor battery temperature can also be used for the rectifier
battery charge temperature compensation feature, or the battery charge temperature compensation feature
can be programmed to use the average or highest value of all battery temperature probes. The battery charge
temperature compensation feature allows the controller to automatically increase or decrease the output
voltage of the system to maintain battery float current as battery temperature decreases or increases,
respectively. Battery life can be extended when an optimum charge voltage to the battery with respect to
temperature is maintained. A temperature probe set to monitor battery temperature can also be used for the
BTRM (Battery Thermal Runaway Management) feature. The BTRM feature lowers output voltage when a high
temperature condition exists to control against battery thermal runaway.
The temperature sensor end of the probe contains a tab with a 5/16” clearance hole for mounting.
A temperature probe programmed to monitor battery temperature should be mounted on the negative post of
a battery cell to sense battery temperature. A temperature probe used for battery charge temperature
compensation and/or BTRM (Battery Thermal Runaway Management) should also be mounted on the negative
post of a battery cell. A temperature probe programmed to monitor ambient temperature should be mounted
in a convenient location, away from direct sources of heat or cold.
System Interface Circuit Card Connections (if required)
The system interface circuit card provides connections for the following. Refer to Figure 22 for circuit card
location. Refer to Figure 23 for connections details.

Connect up to eight (8) digital inputs to the IB2. Note that you must supply both paths for the digital input
(either a positive or a negative signal and the opposite polarity return path). Observe proper polarity. Refer to
Figure 27 for terminal locations and Table 3 for pin-out information.
The digital inputs can be programmed to provide an alarm when the signal is applied (HIGH) or removed
(LOW). Refer to the NCU Instructions (UM1M830BNA) for programming information.
Digital Input Ratings: Refer to the following.
a) Maximum Voltage Rating: 60V DC.
b) Active High: > 19V DC.
c) Active Low: < 1V DC.
The digital inputs may be preprogrammed for specific functions. Refer to the configuration drawing (Cdrawing) supplied with your system for your system’s specific configuration.

ESTOP Function
If an ESTOP switch is wired to the IB2-1 Controller Interface Board, customer-furnished system ground applied
to terminal DI8+ activates the ESTOP function. The ESTOP function shuts down and locks out the rectifiers
and opens the optional low voltage disconnect (LVD) contactors (battery and load type). If the system has
battery connected and does not contain a battery LVD or the controller power option is set to Battery Pwr
(jumper J4 on the system interface board is set to Battery Pwr), the controller will remain operational. If the
system does not contain battery or load LVD(s) and has battery connected, the loads will be sustained by the
battery voltage.
For Systems NOT Containing a Battery LVD: When the ESTOP signal is removed, LVD contactors (battery and
load type) will close after the “LVD Reconnect Delay” has elapse (customer configurable via the controller) if
battery voltage is present on the bus. Rectifiers will remain off. The rectifiers will restart when the input power
is removed and restored after 30 seconds or more (until the LEDs on the modules extinguish).
For Systems Containing a Battery LVD: When the ESTOP signal is removed, LVD contactors (battery and load
type) will remain open. Rectifiers will remain off. The rectifiers will restart when the input power is removed and
restored after 30 seconds or more (until the LEDs on the modules extinguish). When the rectifiers restart, LVD
contactors (battery and load type) will close after the “LVD Reconnect Delay” has elapse (customer
configurable via the controller).
NOTE!
If a customer-furnished method to disconnect the input power to the system is not provided, the
rectifiers will stay locked OFF until the input power is recycled. If the ESTOP signal is removed without
recycling the input power, the rectifiers will remain off and have a local alarm visible on the module. The
ESTOP alarm from the controller will extinguish. The controller will not issue an alarm for this condition.
Programmable Relay Outputs
The IB2 provides eight (8) programmable alarm relays with dry Form-C contacts. Connect up to eight (8) relay
outputs to the IB2. Refer to Figure 27 for terminal locations and Table 5 for pin-out information.
Refer to the NCU Instructions (UM1M830BNA) for programming information.
Relay Ratings: Refer to the following.
a) Steady State: 0.5 A @ 60V DC; 1.0 A @ 30V DC.
b) Peak: 3 A @ 30V DC.
The relays may be preprogrammed for specific functions. Refer to the configuration drawing (C-drawing)
supplied with your system for your system’s specific configuration.

NCU Controller Ethernet Connection (if required)
The NCU Controller provides a Web Interface via an Ethernet connection to a TCP/IP network. This interface
can be accessed locally on a computer or remotely through a network. An RJ-45 10BaseT jack is provided on
the front of the NCU for connection into a customer's network. This jack has a standard Ethernet pin
configuration scheme, twisted pair. Refer to Figure 28 for location and Table 7 for pin outs. Use shielded
Ethernet cable (grounded at both ends). Note that the NCU RJ-45 jack is connected to chassis ground. Refer
to the NCU Instructions (UM1M830BNA) for operational details.
NOTE!
You can access the Web pages of the power system locally by using a "crossover" or “straight”
cable connected directly between your PC and the NCU.
WARNING! The intra-building port(s) of the equipment or subassembly is suitable for connection to
intra-building or unexposed wiring or cabling only. The intra-building port(s) of the equipment or
subassembly MUST NOT be metallically connected to the interfaces that connect to the OSP or its
wiring. These interfaces are designed for use as intra-building interfaces only (Type 2 or Type 4 ports as
described in GR-1089-CORE, Issue 4) and require isolation from the exposed OSP cabling. The addition
of Primary Protectors is not sufficient protection in order to connect these interfaces metallically to OSP
wiring.
The intra-building port (RJ-45) of the equipment or subassembly must use shielded intra-building
cabling/wiring that is grounded at both ends.

NOTE!
The distribution unit can contain either an IB2 board or an internal IB4 board, not both.
Your system may be furnished with an internal IB4 board connected to the NCU backplane via a factory
furnished and connected cable. An external IB4 board kit is available. The IB4 board provides a second
Ethernet port. The Ethernet port located on the NCU Controller’s front panel can ONLY be used to connect a
computer directly to the NCU. The Ethernet port located on the IB4 board can be used to connect the NCU to
your Local Area Network (LAN).
NOTE!
If your system has an IB4 board, DO NOT connect your Local Area Network (LAN) to the NCU
front Ethernet port.
An RJ-45 10BaseT jack is provided on the IB4 board for connection into a customer's network. This jack has a
standard Ethernet pin configuration scheme, twisted pair. Refer to Figure 29 for location and Table 7 for pin
outs. Use shielded Ethernet cable (grounded at both ends). Note that the IB4 board’s RJ-45 jack is connected

Verifying and Setting the NCU Controller as Required for Your Application
Refer to the NCU Instructions (UM1M830BNA) for additional information.
Temperature Probes: Depending on if NCU temperature probe inputs are enabled or disabled in the NCU
configuration, you may have to program the NCU for any temperature probes being used. Note that some
temperature probe inputs may not be enabled by default. Refer to the C-drawing supplied with your system to
determine if temperature probe inputs are enabled and pre-programmed. Refer to “Setting Temperature
Sensors” in the “Common Tasks Performed via the Local Keypad and/or Web Interface” section of the NCU
controller manual (UM1M830BNA) if temperature probe inputs require programming.
NOTE!
Verify the NCU temperature probe configuration if temperature probes are installed from the
factory. Refer to the C-drawing supplied with your system.
Refer also to “NCU Start Wizard” on page 70.
NOTE!
When setting total rectifier current limit, the set point to each unit is the total set point divided
by the number of units. For example, if the system contains five rectifiers and the current limit is set to
150 amps then each rectifier has a current limit set point of 30 amps. If one or more rectifiers are
removed or fails it will take several seconds for the individual set points to the remaining rectifiers to be
reset. In the example given, if one rectifier is removed the current limit set point will drop to 120 amps
(30 amps times four remaining rectifiers) until the controller can send updated set points to the
remaining rectifiers. This takes a couple communication cycles (several seconds) after which each
rectifier would have a new set point of 37.5 amps for a total of 150 amps. The total current limit of the
rectifiers should not be set such that the loss of the redundant rectifiers will cause this temporary set
point to drop below the actual maximum expected load. If batteries are used on the rectifier output, the
batteries should support the load until the current limit set points can be re-established due to loss of a
rectifier.
NCU Start Wizard
For initial startup, you can perform the Start Wizard from the local keypad and display to enter basic
programmable parameters in one session. Refer to the “Start Wizard” section in the NCU Instructions
(UM1M830BNA).
Verifying the Configuration File
Your NCU was programmed with a configuration file that sets all adjustable parameters. The version number of
the configuration file can be found on the configuration drawing (C-drawing) that is supplied with your power
system documentation, and on a label located on the NCU. You can verify that the correct configuration file
has been loaded into your NCU by performing the following procedure.
Procedure
1. With the Main Menu displayed, press ESC. A screen displays the NCU name, serial number, IP number,
software version, hardware version, and configuration version number.
2. Press ESC to return to the Main Menu.

Configuring the NCU Identification of Rectifiers and Assigning which Input Feed is Connected to the
Rectifiers
When rectifiers are all installed prior to applying power and starting the system, the order in which the NCU
identifies the rectifiers is by serial number (lowest serial number is Rect 1, next lowest is Rect 2, etc.). If you
prefer the NCU to identify the rectifiers by position in the system, perform the following procedure.
Upon power up, the NCU arbitrarily assigns Feed AC1, AC2, or AC3 to each rectifier. This assignment is used to
display rectifier AC input feed voltage(s). The User may reassign the feed to each rectifier per your specific
installation by following the procedure below.

Checking Circuit Breaker/Fuse Alarm
NOTE!
For all shelves equipped with battery disconnect circuit breakers, an open battery disconnect
circuit breaker will not activate the fuse/circuit breaker alarm unless a battery (or a temporary test load)
is connected to the system battery terminals. The battery fuse input is looking for a delta voltage across
a battery circuit breaker to activate the alarm. You will not have a reference if there is no battery (or a
temporary test load) connected.
1. Verify system is operating and no alarms are present.
2. Verify the NCU displays the Main Menu. If not, press ESC repeatedly to return to the Main Menu.
3. Open the front door of the distribution unit at the right-hand side of the shelf.
NOTE!
The following procedure is to be used only with circuit breakers that provide an alarm indication
when manually placed to the OFF (open) position (black handle). Electrical trip alarm circuit breakers
(white handle) cannot be easily tested in the field.
4. Do one of the following: (1) Remove a good fuse or a dummy fuse from a GMT fuse position, and replace
it with a blown fuse, or (2) Place the handle (if black) of a load circuit breaker in the OFF (open) position.
a) Requirement: An audible alarm sounds. The alarm will be silenced in Requirement c.
b) Requirement: NCU “Critical/Major” alarm indicator goes from off to red.
c) Requirement: NCU displays “Alarm”.
To see the specific alarm(s), navigate to the Alarm Menu and press ENT. The Active Alarm screen
lists one critical alarm. “Power System Load Fuse Brkr Critical” is displayed.
5. Do one of the following: (1) Replace the blown GMT fuse with a known good fuse (or a dummy fuse), or
(2) place the handle of the circuit breaker in the ON (closed) position.
a) Requirement: NCU “Critical/Major” alarm indicator goes from red to off.
b) Requirement: Press ESC repeatedly to return to the Main screen. NCU displays “No Alarm”.
c) Requirement: All external alarms deactivate.
