Page 7: Installation
3. Installation Before using the power supply ARGOS a power cord has to be plugged in to the AC input (TB1) of the rear panel of the power supply. The power cord should at least support 7A load. The ARGOS supply is immediately operational after powering up and a soft start time of approx. 3sec. The warmup time, at room temperature, in order to reach the high stability specifications is negligible. -
Page 8: External Programming
7. External programming The output voltage, current and OV protection can be adjusted externally with programming voltages. The voltage and current can also be adjusted by means of resistance programming. 7.1 External voltage programming The programming voltage source is connected with its minus lead to TB4-8 and its plus lead to TB4-15. - Page 9 7.3 External current programming The auxiliary programming voltage is connected as following : minus to TB 4-14, plus to TB 4-6. When the EXTERNAL switch is pushed and the EXTERNAL mode active, the yellow LED indicator illuminates. The programming voltage may have values between 0 and + 10V. The output current results in a linear and proportional manner from the programming voltage.
- Page 10 7.5 External OV-programming NOTE The regulation board is delivered with a short circuit jumper BR301, located close to the relay. In this way it is also possible in ‘‘EXTERNAL’’ mode to adjust OV internaly. For external OV programming the jumper BR301 must be removed. The auxiliary programming voltage is connected as following : minus pole to TB 4-14, plus pole to TB 4-5.

Page 11: Overvoltage Protection
8. Overvoltage protection ARGOS power supplies are factory equipped with an adjustable threshold overvoltage protection. The threshold maximum value is 120% of the maximum adjustable output voltage (e.g. 48V for ARGOS 40-25). Minimum spacing of threshold to output voltage approx. 0.5V. 8.1 Treshold adjustment: 1. - Page 12 9. Series operation Series operation of ARGOS power supplies enable a higher output voltage, however the total output voltage should not exceed 300V. Besides it is to be noted that a voltage drop due to the connecting lines is generated according to the current load. For an accurate regulation the following configuration is to be respected.

Page 13: Parallel Operation
10. Parallel operation If higher output currents are required it is possible to have the ARGOS power supplies operate in a parallel manner. 10.1 Simple output load terminals connection Please note the following : In order to get an even load current distribution, both ARGOS power supplies have to be adjusted to the same output voltage prior to connecting the output load terminals. - Page 14 1. Remove Jumpers: For master ARGOS Jumpers between +S and +V, also -S and -V 2. Connections All ARGOS +V load terminals to the plus pole of load (with sufficient wire cross section ≥ 5 A/1mm²) All ARGOS -V load terminals to minus pole of load (cross section ≥ 5A/1mm²) Master -S to minus pole of load Master +S to plus pole of load (TB 3 - 4) master to (TB 4 - 6) master...

Page 15: Tracking
11. Tracking mode The tracking mode permits to structure a symmetric power supply. For this two ARGOS are necessary, the unit with negative output acts as master. Configuration: Master Slave -S -V -S -V Masse Fig. 8 The resistance R1 is calculated using the following formula: R1=(V /5-1) x 20 kOhm is the maximum output voltage in Volt of the master device. -
Page 16: Monitor And Status Outputs
12. Monitor and status outputs 12.1 Monitor outputs The output voltage and current can be read via two analog signals. Those signals are proportional with the output parameters and are rated to + 10V. They are marked ‘‘V-Monitor’’ (TB 4-7) and ‘‘I-Monitor’’ (TB 4-13) and measured against TB 4-14. Both monitor ouputs may be loaded with max.
