  • Page 3: Ul Required Safety Messages

    CIRCUIT CURRENTS CAN BE EXTREMELY HIGH AND CAN CREATE SEVERE BURNS AS WELL AS THE RISK OF FIRE OR EXPLOSION FROM VENTED GASES. ALWAYS OBSERVE PROPER PRECAUTIONS. Safe and continuous operation of the MPM depends partially on the care taken by users. NOTE: THIS MPM POWER UNIT CONTAINS VOLTAGES WHICH ARE POTENTIALLY HAZARDOUS.
  • Page 4 • Do not place the MPM near water or in environments of excessive humidity.  • Do not allow liquid or any foreign object to get inside the MPM • Do not block air vents of the MPM. • Do not plug appliances such as hair dryers, fans, heaters, etc. into the MPM.
  • Page 5 1. Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. 2. Increase the separation between the MPM and the receiver. 3. Connect the MPM into an outlet on a circuit that is different from that to which the receiver is connected. 4. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for assistance.

  • Page 8: About The Power And Battery Charger Module

    If it is not charged from time to time, the battery may not have enough charge remaining when you need it to work. The MPM unit includes an automatic “jump-start” circuit that will attempt to recover a weak battery. Even so, following the advice below will help keep your workstation battery working.

  • Page 15: Setup And Operation

    Setup and Operation 5-Step Setup 1. Connect the Remote User Interface (RUI) to the MPM. The MPM will not function without the RUI properly connected. Connect one side of each RJ45 cable to the RUI and the other side of the RJ45 cable to the MPM RJ45 ports marked “COMM1”...

  • Page 17 Connect the input plug to 120V AC wall outlet. When the MPM is connected to the AC wall outlet, it will automatically charge the battery pack. It is important to connect the MPM to a live AC outlet for a minimum of 4 hours (LiFePO...

  • Page 18: Notes On Power-Up Behavior

    “Cold” Start – Input AC NOT OK, start from Battery If there is no input AC present, the MPM output can be “cold started” from the battery by holding the output ON/OFF button for 3-5 seconds.  If the battery VDC is too low, cold start is not possible.

  • Page 19: System Overview & Theory Of Operations

     If there is no battery connected, or the battery is not recoverable (will not accept charge), the MPM will provide output power only as long as the AC input source is valid. System Overview & Theory of Operations System Overview...
  • Page 20 UPM – modified to operate from battery as the “normal” or primary power source for day to day activity. MPM is different than a UPM in that it has a powerful charger system to allow faster recovery of battery charge.

  • Page 21: Theory Of Operation

    Theory of Operation When the MPM is connected to an AC source it will switch to battery whenever AC input is out of range or disconnected. The MPM uses battery source to compensate when AC input conditions are out of range.
  • Page 22 ClinicView presents a simple view of system and battery status including estimated time remaining from the battery during discharge. TechView is used to configure an MPM, update MPM unit firmware, and view system information for analysis by service technicians. These software products are described further in these companion documents: •...

  • Page 24 Output power will be provided from AC input until battery VDC has recovered. Output power will not be available from battery until battery has recovered to a value above the cut-off threshold for the specific battery type configured in MPM (see Battery Protection).
  • Page 25 (SLA vs LiFePO Restart The output and internal power supply is turned OFF and the MPM goes into a very low power state (sleep mode) where the drain current on the battery is < 50 uA.
  • Page 26 Press output On/Off button for 3 seconds to restart. If condition persists, MPM will auto shutdown. Source – Input AC (AC mode) MPM automatically transfers back to AC source if the abnormal input line condition clears. Abnormal line condition causes MPM to switch to battery source: Document A55-00042 Rev.
  • Page 27 Press 3 seconds to enable/disable output MPM continues to power internal controls when connected to valid input AC. MPM charges battery when valid input AC is present regardless of state of output power switch. Note: The Output On/Off button is standard factory configuration. Unit can also be configured for fixed position ON/OFF control as factory build time option.
  • Page 28 Discovery Mode. While in this mode the MPM will continue to look for a SMBus connection and charge the battery at a reduced current and float voltage that is safe for both SLA and LiFePO batteries.
