A set of two identical System Interface connectors, P8 and P9 ( TBD ) is located on the rear panel of each
BPS chassis. The system interface is used to connect the multiple BPS power sources in a
Master/Auxiliary configuration to create BPS150 or BPS180 models. In these configurations, only the
Master BPS power source has a built-in controller and front panel.
