11.2 AUTO OPERATION RUNNING 11.2.1 ILLUSTRATION Press manual/auto transfer key , and auto status indicator is illuminated; Controller is in auto status. In auto mode, controller will transfer switch based on the status of A power and B power, transfer priority and auto trans./restore status to ensure supply for load.
11.2.3 AUTO TRANS. NONE RESTORE (ACTIVE FOR MUTUAL BACKUP) When the “Auto Trans None-Restore” function is set, and “Mutual Backup” is active, A power acts as the master source. If A power is normal, it closes the A power switch, supplying the load. If A power becomes abnormal while B power remains normal, the controller opens the A power switch and closes the B power switch, transferring the load to B power.
11.2.4 AUTO TRANS. NONE RESTORE (IN ACTIVE FOR MUTUAL BACKUP) When Auto Trans. None-restore and Mutual Backup is inactive, A power is master. If A power is normal, it closes. When A power is abnormal and B power is normal, A power opens and B power closes. If A power recovers to normal, the switch remains at B power close status.
12 COMMUNICATION CONFIGURATION AND CONNECTION 12.1 ILLUSTRATION The ATbS C55 dual power ATS controller has an RS485 communication port and a USB communication port. The RS485 communication port allows connection to LAN of open structure. The communication port applies the Modbus communication protocol.

14.2 ATTACHED ILLUSTRATION FOR LO, NO CONNECTION INSIDE CONTROLLER The ATbS C55 controller has an automatic transfer function for the ATS power supply inside. Normal ATS power supply is ensured only if one voltage of A power and B power is normal, achieved by transferring between the normally open (N/O) contact and normally closed (N/C) contact of intermediate relay 1 and intermediate relay 2.
15 INSTALLATION The controller is designed for panel installation and is secured in place using clips for installation.
