Tyco Galaxy SC Controller User Manual

Tyco Electronics Galaxy SC Controller J85501F-1
3 - 32 Installation Issue 13 February 2001
Mount the Galaxy
Controller
1. Mount the Galaxy Controller into the space vacated by the MCS
Controller.
2. Tighten all mounting bolts.
3. The Galaxy controller is grounded to the framework. For
customers that require a two hole ground lug termination for all
powered units, connect the WP91412 L-73 (10-14 gauge wire) lug
provided to the Galaxy’s external ground holes located on the top
right edge of the rear of the Galaxy chassis and run the other end
to an appropriate ground termination point.
Rectifier Interface
Modules
The Galaxy controller uses J85501F1 L-31 Rectifier Interface Modules
for interfacing with the MCS compatible rectifiers being reused in this
retrofit. It is also capable of interfacing with various other types of
rectifiers. The different styles of Rectifier Interface Modules which may
be used along with the L-31 MCS compatible modules are as follows:
J85501F1 L-31: MCS Compatible (J85502 & 03 series,
J874 series e/w SP7 or SP8 Alarm & Control circuit packs)
J85501F1 L-32: Ferro Enhanced Communications (J85503B2,
J85503C3 and J85603C2)
J85501F1 L-34: Commercial rectifiers with shunt monitoring
J85501F1 L-35: Switchmode (J85702) with shunt monitoring
Each module has eight ports, one for each rectifier. Up to three modules
may be utilized. Galaxy can interface with any of these different types
of modules concurrently.
Insert the required Rectifier Interface Modules onto the backplane of the
Galaxy. See Figure 3-1. Module A rectifiers are designated G-01 to
G-08; Module B G-09 to G-16, and Module C, G-17 to G-24.
Consecutive assignments are not necessary.
When serial rectifiers are added to the plant, an L-36 rectifier interface
module is added. Only one L-36 is used per plant, When it is used
concurrently with concurrently with other parallel interface modules
(L-31 to L-35), it should be used in the higher rectifier interface position
(B or C). The rectifier IDs of the serial rectifiers assigned to it should not
interfere with positions reserved for use in the parallel interface
module(s) also installed. When L-36 is installed in rectifier interface
position B, serial rectifier numbering should begin at 9 and go up. When
installed in rectifier interface position C, serial rectifier numbering
should begin at 17 and go up.
