Information on Operation with Interface
The signals that are available through the M12 interface plug are described hereafter, including their initial state (open or closed).
For more details on available information and diagnosis see chapter 0.
•
Error relay (pins 3 - 6)
Closes when a magnetic field acceptable to ensure the minimum function is detected and when no error occurs. This is however
no guarantee for the deliverable output power (refer to chapter 7.5). Opens when an error is detected.
•
Warning relay (pins 3 - 5)
Is normally open. Closes when approaching limits of operations (i.e. temperature, overload) to give the user the opportunity to take
the signal into account and prevent an automatic shutdown which could cause the vehicle to stop in a critical zone and/or at a
critical moment. Provides also some information on the status of the pilot pin function. See also chapter 8.4.
•
Status relay (pins 3 - 7)
Is normally open. Closes when the main output has been enabled and the regulation functions are fully ready for operation with
load. The state of this relay is no guaranty for the accuracy of the voltage output i.e. in case of overload the voltage will be lower
than the nominal value specified.

Precautions
Regulators are not designed for independent operation. They have to be operated in conjunction with
corresponding IPT
®
Rail components.
Never operate a device showing damage or that is in a non-touch proof state. Do not perform any work on
the device while in operation. Life threatening danger of electrical shock!
During or after operation surfaces of the Regulator may be hot. Use caution! Prevent access to hot surfaces
if necessary. Refer to chapter 4.4 for more information.
Never short circuit the power output 1 or discharge it into a resistance of less than 20 ohms.
Do not overload the power output 2.
These may result in high discharge currents and therefore severe damage may occur.
Do not connect or switch a charged or powered Regulator directly on to any batteries. Connection should
only take place when the Regulator is in a powered down state. Never connect a battery load in reverse
polarity, damage will occur. Regulators will draw a small amount of power from batteries even if switched off;
batteries will discharge.
Ensure adequate ventilation. Refer to chapter 7.5.
