DPR Power Supply Status Registers
The RMC reads nine bytes of information from each of the three power
supplies. The first byte is read from an I/O expander port, the second
four bytes and the last four bytes are read from the A–D converter.
Table D–15 Nine Bytes Read from Power Supply
DPR Location Definition
DB/E4/ED Reads I/O expander on Power Supply 0, 1, 2
Bit 0 PS_ID0_L
1 PS_ID1_L
2 Reserved (Pulled up so bit is always enabled)
3 Thermal_Shutdown_H
4:7 Tied to High within PS
DC/E5/EE 3.3V_current. Each step equals 0.255 (0xFF x 0.33203 = 85A)
DD/E6/EF 5 V_current. Each step equals 0.255 (0xFF x 0.33203 = 85A)
DE/E7/F0 12 V_current. Each step equals 0.033 (0xFF x 0.07813 = 20A)
DF/E8/F1 Fan_Speed (0x8B = 7 V)
E0/E9/F2
AC_INPUT value in hex. Each step equals 1.07422VAC
(0xFF x 1.07422 = 275VAC)
E1/EA/F3 Power_supply_internal_temperature (hot)
Byte represents a temp value
1 bit = 0.756• C
E2/EB/F4
Power_supply_inlet_temperature
1 bit = 0.266• C
E3/EC/F5 Spare
NOTE: The DPR locations refer to power supplies. For example, DB/E4/ED = power
supply 0/1/2. The same is true for all locations listed in the table.
