🔧 Parameter Configuration & Modification Methods
⚙️ Input Voltage Selection: Local line voltage configuration (115V AC or 230V AC) must be verified and set via internal power supply terminal links or configuration switches prior to energizing the unit.
⚙️ Backplane Bus Configuration: System slot addressing, bus termination links, and module interconnections are configured using physical jumpers and backplane bus connectors according to the specific controller rack layout.
🔄 Manual & Automatic Mode Switching
⚙️ Automatic Mode: During normal operation, the integrated power supply automatically regulates line voltage fluctuations, manages soft-start sequence delivery, and continuously supplies stable DC rails to all inserted modules without operator intervention.
⚙️ Manual / Maintenance Mode: Maintenance personnel can manually control system power via external cabinet main breakers or local rack power switches to safely de-energize the assembly during module maintenance or rack servicing.
