OPERATION OVERVIEW
HOW DOES THE SECURE POWER UNIT WORK
THE TEST BUTTON
Pushing shortly the
TEST
button performs a test of the Secure Power Unit. It enables a view of the Secure
Power Unit supply and of the battery charge without any LiveCore™ device connected (or in standby). A
long press will perform a forced charge of the battery if the battery charge is lower than 95% (only when the
LiveCore™ device is in standby or without any LiveCore™ connected).
The Secure Power Unit has been designed to replace the power supply of LiveCore™ devices. It provides a
redundant supply plus a battery.
If a power supply unit stops working, the other one supplies the device. If both stop working, the battery
keeps the device switched on for a duration of 5-10 minutes to enable the device to be turned off properly
or fix the electrical issue.
When a LiveCore™ device is powered on using the Secure Power Unit, the battery is automatically charging.
It is possible to charge the battery when no LiveCore™ device is running. (see Test Button description).
To find information about the Secure Power Unit on the Web RCS (
Setup > Services > SPU
), the Secure Power
Unit has to be connected to the LiveCore ™ device through an RS232 cable.
