3.13. Powering Up
After the Trombone is connected to its peripheral devices, it is ready to be powered up.
Caution:
Before applying power, ensure that:
1.
The DC supply is within the specified range.
2. The proper plus-minus connections are in order.
3. The VN- is not connected to the PE nor to the Neutral, when working with a
non-isolated power supply.
3.13.1. Initializing the System
After the Trombone has been connected and mounted, the system must be set up and
initialized. This is accomplished using the Composer, Elmo’s Windows-based software
application. Install the application and then perform setup and initialization according to the
directions in the Composer Software Manual.
3.14. Heat Dissipation
The best way to dissipate heat from the Trombone is to mount it so that its heatsink faces up.
For best results leave approximately 10 mm of space between the Trombone‘s heat sink and
any other assembly.
3.14.1. Trombone Thermal Data
• Heat dissipation capability (θ): Approximately 5.5 °C/W
• Thermal time constant: Approximately 600 seconds (thermal time constant means that the
Trombone will reach 2/3 of its final temperature after 10 minutes)
• Shut-off temperature: 86 °C to 88 °C (measured on the heat sink)
