    The improved RPS6U rack power supply (330 W) can supply a full rack of cards, such as 12 x MPC4/IOC4T card pairs or 12 x XMx16/XIO16T card pairs. This means that a VM600 rack with two RPS6U power supplies (330 W) installed and operating non-redundantly is usually only necessary for applications where the operating environment requires RPS6U output power derating.
  • Page 52: Identifying Different Versions Of The Rps6U Rack Power Supply

    For an existing VM600 system, it is important to note that simply replacing an old RPS6U rack power supply (300 W) with a new one (330 W) should not be used as a way to increase the maximum output power available in order to add more cards to the rack –...

    50°C (122°F). When two RPS6U rack power supplies operate redundantly to supply power to the cards in a VM600 rack, the maximum current available for use by the cards is limited to the current available from a single RPS6U power supply.

    When two RPS6U rack power supplies operate non-redundantly to supply power to the cards in a VM600 rack, the maximum current available for use by the cards is limited to approximately 125% (x 1.25) the current available from a single RPS6U power supply.

    An XMC16, XMV16 or XMVS16 card must have an XIO16T card installed directly behind it in the rack. One or two RPS6U rack power supplies can be installed in a VM600 system rack. A rack can have two RPS6U rack power supplies installed for different reasons: in order to support rack power supply redundancy (2.10.5 Racks with two RPS6U rack power supplies in order to support rack power supply...

    8.3 Rack safety requirements 8.3.1 Adequate ventilation VM600 19" racks do not contain any ventilation units (fans). They therefore rely on either forced ventilation by fans in the cabinet or on natural ventilation (convection) for their cooling. All require the free flow of air in an upward direction, with air entering the rack through the vents in the base of the rack and leaving it through the vents on the top of the rack.

    8.3.3 Supply wiring A VM600 rack using the AC-input version of the RPS6U rack power supply is supplied with a mains power supply lead (power cord). Power supply rear panels with two AC inputs for independent mains supplies are supplied with two mains cables. However, no lead (cable) is supplied with a VM600 rack using the DC-input version of the RPS6U.
  • Page 194 INSTALLATION Rack safety requirements The AC-input rear panels with mains sockets used by VM600 racks have a power entry module that requires temperature derating when a rack operates in environments with temperatures greater than 50°C. See Appendix A.4 - Temperature derating for the power entry module of a VM600 rack for further information.
  • Page 195 INSTALLATION Rack safety requirements For a VM600 rack using a DC-input version of the RPS6U rack power supply, the DC-mains power supply lead (power cord) must meet the following requirements. For later versions of the RPS6U (PNR 200-582-x00-02h or later) that define the power as a total maximum output power of 330 W, the requirements are: •...
  • Page 196: Instructions For Locating And Mounting

    A fully equipped VM600 rack can weigh 23 kg, so the following instructions apply: • Two people are required to carry or mount the VM600 rack in its cabinet. • Shelves, guide rails and other devices used to support a VM600 rack must be strong enough to bear the weight of the rack.
  • Page 197: Installation Procedure For Cards

    Failure to do this may result in cards becoming damaged by electrostatic discharges. Before inserting a card in the rack, check visually that none of the connector pins are bent. VM600 MPS hardware manual (standard version) MAMPS-HW/E Edition 17 - February 2018...

    8.4.1.1 Hardware When a VM600 MPS is installed for the first time, the MPC4 / IOC4T and/or AMC8 / IOC8T card pairs that it contains must be configured according to their intended application. The IOC4T and IOC8T cards have adjustable hardware elements (micro-switches and jumpers) that have to be set up before insertion in the rack.

    The IOC8T card contains the following four local relays for signalling alarms: RL1, RL2, RL3 and RL4. Specific alarms can be attributed to these relays using the VM600 MPSx software. NOTE: Refer to the relevant manual for further information: VM600 MPS1 software manual or VM600 MPS2 software manual.

    The attribution of a specific alarm signal (generated by the AMC8 / IOC8T cards) to a control signal line (and therefore to an OC Bus line) is done using the VM600 MPSx software. These alarm signals include Alert, Danger, Global Channel OK Fail, AMC Configuration Not Running, Status Latched.

The user must then use the VM600 MPSx software to select Relay 7 from the 16 relays available in the RLC/OC bus node. Then, the Danger+ alarm for Multi-Channel 1 can be assigned to this relay (see Figure 10-13).
