2.4.2.2.1 PARALLEL CURRENT SHARE - REAR PANEL DIP SWITCHES

To configure adjacent slots, use the rear panel DIP switches to connect the Current Share bus.
Using rear panel DIP switches permits only adjacent power supplies be connected in parallel.

To connect the current share lines locate the applicable DIP switches: (see Figure 1-3) and set
position 3, 4, 5 to ON (closed). The example illustrated in Figure 2-5 shows two 50W units (slot
1 and slot 2) connected in parallel using rear panel DIP switches to configure the current share
bus, enabled via position 5 of DIP switch 2 for slots 1/2.

NOTE: If rear panel DIP switch positions 3, 4 are closed (ON), use only one pair of sense

lines to monitor voltage.
