1. General description
REFER TO SECTION 10 FOR SAFETY AND EMC
RELATED ITEMS FIRST
The MC 11 AC EB-2 19" power supply cabinet
with external bus has 11 free slots for Siqura plug-
in modules (7TE), supplying these with the correct
DC voltages. The 'mains' power connector module
in the remaining, dedicated slot 0 contains a
microprocessor. This processor is used for:
- status monitoring and controlling of SNM
compatible modules and those from the AWS
3000 series in the cabinet;
- controlling two relays;
- reading status information of the cabinet proper.
Two RS-485 serial bus interfaces to the processor
are provided, allowing remote system management
and control. By way of these interfaces, a large
number of MC XX EB-2 cabinets may be linked
with shielded 4(+1 ground)-wire data cable. More
information on system control can be found in
supplementary manuals; the cabinet can be set to
EB compatibility.
The 230 or 120 Vac-powered MC 11 AC EB-2
internals are cooled with two fans. Note that the
cabinet mounting brackets can be put on the module
side or on the fan side (see figures 1a,b).

The front panel of the controller module has two
9-pin D-connectors for serial (external) com-
munications, and two 2-pin relay connections 1 and
2 combined into one connector (see figures 1a, c
and table 1).
The controller module front panel furthermore
provides a mains connector and an access panel for
the mains fuse (figures 1a,c and 4).

3. Installation instructions for EB-2 mode
1. Choose the mode of operation (EB-2 absolute
addressing, EB-2 local addressing, or EB
compatibility mode, see §5).
2. Mount the MC 11 EB-2 cabinet into a standard
19-inch rack, without modules in the slots. Check
whether the specified power voltage of the cabinet
matches the local power supply voltage.
