For the same reason, when rack-mounting it is preferable to avoid locating the unit adjacent to signal processing equipment. It should be noted that if a complete rack containing a CPS2000 unit is to be operated from a different mains supply level, then the unit should be withdrawn from the rack in order to reselect the mains voltage setting, at the same time as resetting any other equipment.

Finally, some consideration should be given to the earthing arrangement of the system at the centre of which are the console and the CPS2000 (and any other Soundcraft power supply units). The console chassis is earthed, through the mains earth, via the power supply.

Circuit Description INTRODUCTION. The CPS2000 power supply provides +/-17V at 16 Amps, +8V at 1.25 Amp, and +48V at 0.3 Amp. The main PCB (SC3804) is in LH and RH halves. The LH PCB carries the +17V and +48V supplies. The RH PCB carries the -17V and +8V supplies. A separate PCB (SC3817) carries the mains voltage selector switches at the front of the unit.

The 723 IC is powered through R11, which allows ripple filtering by C9, and voltage protection by DZ1,2. These Zeners are not required to reduce ripple; their function is purely protective, preventing the 40V Vmax spec of the 723 being exceeded should the mains voltage rise above nominal.

When the supply is switched on, it tends to stick in the second of these two states. The CPS2000 avoids this problem by implementing constant-current protection that causes complete shutdown (rather than foldback) after a fixed time delay. This is described for the +17V supply;...

Undervoltage warning. The supply gives a warning indication when the mains voltage has fallen so low that regulation is about to be lost. The Headroom Indicator subsystem illuminates all the decimal points on the DPM, giving a clear signal that something is amiss. The voltage across the pass transistors is monitored by TR3;...

The +48V Supply. Max current rating is 0.3 Amps. The +48V phantom supply is based on the high-voltage regulator TL783C. (REG1) The AC input is fused by F4 and fullwave rectified by BR4; C1,24 are the reservoir capacitors. The unregulated DC may rise as high as +85V on high mains.

PCB (SC4032) mounted on the front heatsink bracket, with a thermal sensor pressed against the top surface of the heatsink. The CPS2000 fan control system adapts the fan speed to the power drawn. This gives a substantial reduction in fan noise under almost all circumstances; the exception being 10% high mains and maximum current drawn, which naturally sets the fan to full speed.

Fuse Replacement The 32A fuses mounted on either side of the transformer must be replaced with identical parts only. Soundcraft part number ZD8900. F1, located on the voltage selector PCB, must be replaced with an identical part. Soundcraft part number ZD8112.
