Figure 8: Wiring battery backup with built-in relay for fault output (AC power fail) 

 

Note: 

For power supply P/N 300377001, the low battery trip point is 11.0 VDC; the AC power fail trip point is 12.6 VDC. For 

other power supplies, refer to the manufacturer’s specifications. 

 

Troubleshooting 

Power problems 

Problem:

 The M5 does not power up correctly. 

Resolution:

 Verify that the +5V and +12V LEDs on the 

Power/Communications Board are on. See Figure 1. If 
these LEDs are 

not

 on, do the following: 

1.  Use a voltmeter to check the power supply output. It 

should read 12 to 15 VDC. If there is no output, make 
sure the power supply is not on a switched outlet. Be 
sure the circuit breaker for the power supply is not 
tripped. 

2.  Be sure connector J6 is properly seated in the board. 

3.  Make sure the Power/Communications Board is 

seated properly into the backplane and that no pins 
have been bent on J1, the 48-pin connector. 

Caution: 

Replace the fuse with one of the same type and 

rating. Do not power the unit back on until you locate and 
correct the problem. Complete all parts of this step. 

4.  Remove the Power/Communications Board and 

inspect the fuse. If the fuse is blown, replace it. 

5.  Make sure that the wiring connections from the 

power supply to the Power/Communications Board 
are not reversed. If these connections are okay, 
continue to step 6. 

6.  Disconnect connector J6 from the 

Power/Communications Board. Use an ohmmeter to 
check the resistance between pins 3 and 4. If the 
resistance is less than 200 ohms, there is a short 
from power to ground. Isolate the fault as follows: 

•  Remove all boards from the backplane except 

the Power/Communications and PXNplus CPU 
Boards. Add the boards one at a time while 
measuring the resistance between J6 pins 3 and 
4. If the resistance falls below 200 ohms when a 
board is added, that board is faulty. Remove the 
faulty board and continue checking the 
remaining boards. 

•  Insert a faulty board and remove the connectors, 

one by one, until the fault condition disappears 
(resistance goes above 200 ohms). Trace out the 
wiring on these connectors to find and correct 
the problem.
