4 temperature sensors. A discussion of the LEDs begins on page 7. SLICE6 Distributor Connector Panel The SLICE6 Distributor does not contain an internal battery and must be connected to external power (main or battery) at all times for operation.
The external battery will charge whenever sufficient external power is connected to the UP connector, however the fastest charge rate is when the SLICE6 Distributor is in a power down state (i.e., the ON signal is absent). When the ON signal is present, the SLICE6 Distributor is fully functional, however external power is principally used to support the SLICE6 Distributor and the attached DAS, thus reducing battery charging to a minimum.
PWR and STS LED states, allowing system status visibility using an external pendant or other indicator when the SLICE6 Distributor front panel is not visible. Data from external temperature sensors may be monitored and recorded from within the software.
