4. Make sure the ReFlex Power
TM
Controller (RFPC) has the Power
switch in the Off position. The ReFlex Power
TM
modules are not
designed for “hot swapping” hence power must be off when the
FPDC module is installed.
CAUTION
Installing the FPDC module with the RFPC power switch in the on
position may damage the module. Do not install the FPDC with the
RFPC power on.
5. Carefully align the module’s rails with the corresponding receivers
in the chassis and then inter the module until it is fully seated
which occurs when the FPDC front panel is essentially in contact
with the front of the chassis.
6. Tighten the both captive retaining screws. This is an important
step for proper module and system performance.
7. Connect the power and control connectors and use the retaining
screws to secure both.
8. The FPDC module is ready for operation. Turning on the RFPC
power switch controls power.

PERFORMANCE VERIFICATION

NTRODUCTION
Performance verification consists of measuring the 4 outputs initially without any
load and then by adding load up to the maximum current for each output voltage.
Verification of the line voltage performance requires powering the ReFlex
Power
TM
System from a variable voltage supply with sufficient capability to
support the system configuration.

QUIPMENT
•
Digital Multimeter, DMM, with at least 6 ½ digit accuracy that is within
its calibration period, to measure the FPDC output voltages.
•
Test Connector described in the calibration section or similar means,
to connect to the output terminals while having the sense leads
connected.
•
four-channel digital storage oscilloscope with a bandwidth of at least
200 MHz.
•
resistive loads with sufficient wattage, to test the load performance of
the FPDC, see the table below:
