To conserve battery life, you can set the driver to turn off battery backup after a
specified number of days and depend on the archive function to restore data
when the power returns.
A low battery is indicated by the
Battery Low
LED or a low battery alarm in the i-
Vu® application, a touchscreen device, and Field Assistant.
Protection
Built-in surge and transient protection for power and communications in
compliance with EN61000-6-1.
Incoming power is protected by a replaceable 3 Amp Pico® fuse. Network
connections are protected by non-replaceable internal solid-state polyswitches
that reset themselves when the condition that causes a fault returns to normal.
The power, network, input, and output connections are also protected against
transient excess voltage/surge events lasting no more than 10 msec.
CAUTION
To protect against large electrical surges on serial EIA-485
networks, place a PROT485 at each place wire enters or exits the building.
BT485 connector
You can install a BT485 (#BT485 - sold separately) to an MPC Open XP at the
beginning and end of a network segment to add bias and to terminate a network
segment.
Status indicators
LEDs indicate status of communications and low battery status. Seven segment
display indicates running, error, and power status.
