3) Verify that all rectifiers have been installed.

4) Apply AC Power. Turn on the circuit breakers that supply ac power to the rectifiers

in the MX28B DC power plant. The main screen should appear on the control unit
display (see Figure 4.6-1). The display on the control unit is a 2-lines by 16-
characters display. The cursor cycles below the characters of the active selection
on the display. Information shown in the second line of Figure 4.6-1 that extends
beyond 16 characters (to the right of the “S” in “ALARMS”) can viewed on the
control unit display by using the scrolling controls (refer to Section 4.6 for
operation of the control unit).

NOTE: When AC power is initially applied, there is a 60-second period during
which no alarms are reported.


WARNING: The DC power plant is supplied from a nominal
220VAC, 50/60 Hz source. Keep the AC input enclosure cover
in place when the system is operational or energized

.

3.13. System Parameters Verification/Adjustment


The MX28B system control unit is delivered with pre-programmed parameter default
settings. A complete listing and description of all system configuration parameters as
well as displayable system status and information is provided in Section 4.6. Read
Section 4.1 to gain an understanding of and how to use the operational features
provided by the MX28B DC power plant. As a minimum, the following parameters should
be verified and adjusted, if required, before connecting batteries or loads to the power
plant:

1) Battery Float Voltage - default = -54.00V DC (Check the manufacturer’s

recommendation for the batteries being used in the system.)

2) Battery Maximum Recharge Rate - default = 12A. (Bellcore specifications

recommend a maximum charging rate of capacity (in Ampere-hours) divided by 20
hours; check the manufacturer’s recommendation.)

3) System Voltage - measurement

-54.00V DC (This is a measurement by the

system of the DC output bus voltage.)

4) LVD Option - default = “Enable” (If the MX28B does not have an LVD installed,

this should be changed to “Disable”.)

5) Rectifier Information - Check the rectifier information displays to verify that all

rectifiers installed can be viewed on the control unit display and that no rectifier
alarms are active.

Section 4.6 provides location information for these parameters and how to make
changes if required.
