VX1411A IntelliFrame Mainframe Instruction Manual

Theory of Operation

This section provides a brief overview of the theory of operation for the
VX1411A IntelliFrame Mainframe. Figure 4–12 shows the functional block
diagram of the mainframe and the major components.

The VX1411A IntelliFrame Mainframe contains the following major compo-
nents:

H

Power supply

H

Backplane

Power Supply. 

The power supply provides all voltages and currents to the

mainframe. The power supply connects to the backplane at P25, P26, P27, and
P28. The power supply can be replaced as a single unit.

Backplane. 

The Backplane (A4) provides all the connections to module slots 0

through 12 in the mainframe. It also has connections to all other circuit boards
and modules in the mainframe.

The front panel On/Standby DC switch connects to J22 at the top of the
backplane.

The backplane connects to the Power Supply at J25 and J28. Connector P25
supplies power to the fans from the backplane via the fan control cable.

The VX1411A IntelliFrame Mainframe provides optimal cooling for all installed
modules. The mainframe is equipped with two efficient variable speed fans. The
fan speed can easily be manually switched from a low noise, variable speed to
full speed for maximum cooling. Fan speed varies with ambient air temperature:

H

Minimum speed <20

C

H

Maximum speed >50

C

H

Variable speed from 20 to 50

C
