4.5 CIRCUIT PROTECTION
Buss Power
The module shall monitor Power Buss Bank current and shut off all bank outputs if the maximum current exceeds 13 amps per buss.
Both short circuit and overcurrent protection is provided.
P1 = Ports 1 & 2 power, 13 amps.
P2 = Ports 3 & 4 power, 13 amps.
Module Power
This circuit has a separate ground that is supplied by the CAN port as well, Ground (A)
Output Power
This module has 4 amp outputs. The outputs have both short circuit and overcurrent protection. (See Figure 1)
(8) 4A outputs
Reseting an output fault will require cycling of the module power unless the Controller Mode Output Reset is enabled. If the
Controller Mode Output Reset is enabled the fault will be reset if the output is turned off, limit of 5 times before a cycle of module
power will be required.
An output fault will not effect other outputs on the module.
