Operation
Battery Connections
If desired, the
15948 may be connected to an external
24/28 volt battery with minus
(-1
as
ground. Terminals for
the dc power connections are on TB4 (see Figures 6 and
12). If ac power fails, transfer to dc power
is
instantaneous,
automatic and silent. A built
-
in charging circuit supplies
a
100 mA trickle current to maintain battery charge during
ac operation. The battery power supply
is
not operated by
the primary power
ON.OFF switch on the front panel, If
switching of battery power
is
desired, an external relay or
switch should be provided by the user.
lnput Connections
lnput connections may be either
direct.coupled or
transformer
-
isolated
at
the INPUT terminal board (see
Figure
6). Direct coupling
is
accomplished by connecting
the input leads (shielded conductor recommended) to
terminals 1 and
2.
Terminal 2
is
ground. Table
I
lists the
terminals and applications of the INPUT terminal board.

Function/Application

When shipped from the factory, pins 3 and 4 of
J1
are
strapped together to provide
a
600
-
ohm input. A 150
-
ohm
input may be obtained by removing the strap from pins
3
and 4 and then strapping pins 1 and
4
and pins 3 and 6
(see Figure
8).
