IQ Power BPS

System Start-up
A. Apply line voltage to the AC adapter or switch on the Control Station.
B. Move the power supply “Power” switch to the “On” (1) position (not necessary
if using Control Station).
C. The power supply indicators will briefly self-test during which all will light.
D. Immediately after the self-test, the power supply number will be briefly
displayed. (see Power Supply Number – Address/Number section).
E. After the power supply number displays, the power supply indicators will settle
to display the system status.
On new systems the output indicator will settle to display low output, calibration
must be performed.
NOTE
– Calibration should be performed when the system is first installed
and may be performed after the static bar has been cleaned and the system
verified as operating correctly.
F. If the system is new, perform an initial calibration. The initial calibration sets
the relative nominal ion output for the system. Calibration should only be
performed on IQ Power systems that are new or just cleaned and known to be
in proper working order.
During calibration the target to be neutralized (web, film, etc.) may remain in place,
but MUST NOT BE MOVING. If the web is moving past the static bar (e.g. the
machine is in operation) the calibration may be faulty.
The system should be “on” and in the operating mode (not in start-up self-test
or power supply number display modes). Press the face label on the power supply
firmly on the word “CALIBRATE”. This will initiate the calibration sequence and
set the relative nominal ion output for the system.
During calibration the system output will be cycled and the three mode lights will
illuminate. At completion of calibration the speed and distance lights will flicker.
The indicated ion output will be high. The calibration sequence takes approximately
five seconds.
The calibration data is stored in non-volatile memory in the BPS power supply and
is used on subsequent power ups.
Static Bar Operation
A. Operation normally requires only occasional checking of the system indicators
on the power supply.
B. Anticipated changes in the system indicators include a reduction of output over
time. This may occur over several weeks and ultimately cause the “Clean Bar”
indicator to light. Regular maintenance will typically prevent activation of the
indicator.
