Configurations
The main “841” microprocessor board comprises the Pulsar Edge family of power system
controllers. This controller is designed to fit a variety of systems and applications. Systems
utilizing this controller are designed to allow the controller be quickly installed or removed from
its allocated position through a simple thumb-screw or insertion fit without having to remove
input output cable attachments to the unit. The input and output cable assemblies are
connectorized and can quickly be removed or installed into the respective power shelves the
controller resides. There are different configuration options for the Pulsar Edge controller which
be configured differently for these power systems. Configuration includes the number of
customer inputs or outputs, the desired front panel Craft port interface, display option, as well as
custom factory configuration. These options must be ordered and are pre-installed at the factory.
The following figure shows a generic block diagram of the basic components of the Pulsar Edge
controller for a CPL power shelf. The exact system interconnect will vary depending on the shelf
design but this provides the basic concept of controller interconnect common to all.
