Appendix E: OVP Configurations and channel mapping
General overview of Raycap OVP telemetry connections for reference
This information is provided for general reference only; consult Raycap information for setup and
troubleshooting. In the event of conflicting information, information from Raycap company or
documentation should take precedence.
See diagram below. (Diagram shows only the RS485 “OVP telemetry” wiring, not the radio
power cables.)
• OVP units are generally organized in pairs containing 1 upper and 1 lower OVP.
• Each OVP unit has a rotary mode switch selector that must be set correctly.
• Upper OVP units typically have their mode switches set same = “Tower Dot” (fully CCW).
• Each upper OVP unit has data wires that connect to its corresponding lower OVP unit.
(Typically 4 wires connected at green & orange terminal blocks “TOWER COMM” ports.)
• Lower OVP units have their mode switch set to BASEx (where “x” is a number 0,1,2...)
o If using just 1 pair of upper and lower OVPs, the lower OVP mode switch is set to
BASE0.
▪ VBOOST OUT from the lower OVP connects to VBOOST IN at PowerBoost.
o If using 2 or more OVP pairs, the lower OVP mode switches are set in sequence
BASE0, BASE1, BASE2, etc.
▪ Lower OVP BASE0 VBOOST OUT connects to PowerBoost VBOOST IN.
▪ Lower OVP BASE0 VBOOST IN comes from BASE1 VBOOST OUT.
▪ Lower OVP BASE1 VBOOST IN comes from BASE2 VBOOST OUT and so on.
▪ Note that only one OVP base unit connects to PowerBoost “VBOOST IN.”
• Important! The power wiring conductors must connect to SAME channel number at upper
and lower OVP. (Not shown in diagram)
• Diagram below shows general OVP configuration for introduction.
Note: Other configurations are supported; contact JMA technical support
(888-201-6073) with any questions.
