General

The 1251 Power Maintenance Card is designed to provide temporary
power to a 1555 APC chassis during shelf maintenance periods which
involve the removal or replacement of the Power and Alarm card.

Caution: The 1251 card is not mechanically or electrically com-
patible with the Power and Alarm card slot. Do not insert this card
into Slot 1.

The 1251 front panel contains a screw terminal strip with 3 connectors,
two GMT type power fuses, a power LED indicator, and two card-

retaining thumb screws.

Design Features

• The card may be installed in any vacant 1557 APC card slot.

• The card is compatible with any 1555 APC chassis.

• The card provides fused input protection and a power indicator.

Operation

Refer to the front panel diagram above and to the simplified circuit dia-
gram below for the following operational features.

An external -48 VDC fused source is fed into the card from the front
panel screw terminal strip. This power is then fed through front panel
card fuses F1 and F2 (GMT type, 3 Amps). The power is then fed to
both the A and B power bus pins of the card connector. Both A and B
feeds are diode protected from power reversals.

The front panel power indicator is diode biased to allow the LED to be
on only when the proper polarity of -VDC is wired to the front panel
terminal connections.
