• Automatic switchover to battery on power fail
• Automatic switchover to main power on power return
• Temperature compensated charging
• Over-charging protection
• Over-discharge protection
• Battery test and diagnostics, including battery controlled discharge
• Battery charging current control
Characteristics of the DC power supply low-tier:
• Two auxiliary voltage outputs
• Short circuit protection outputs
• PS located on the leftmost slot of the frame
• Overvoltage protection for CPU and I/Os
• Reverse voltage protection
