INTRODUCTION

The Modular Power System is a complete flexible redundant power supply with intelligent networked control, advanced battery management, and load distribution options in a 1U high rack mounted chassis. The main rack shelf unit can accommodate an intelligent network controller module (ICM) with front graphic display and up to four parallel connected hot-swappable 12, 24 or 48V power modules with a combined 2,800W or 150A maximum output rating.

Alternatively you may use the two right hand side flex module slots for a built in battery input module (BMM) with LVD contactor, 100A circuit breaker, current monitor, and advanced battery SOC estimation and test capability – and an intelligent four channel Load Distribution Module (LDM) to provide four 20A breaker protected outputs with advanced monitoring and remote on/off control.

For additional power connect a slave shelf with up to another 4 power modules for up to a fully redundant 4,900W N+1 remote controlled power system.

Set Up the Power Shelf:

Ensure you have received the correct Power Shelf, with the Battery (BMM)

Module and/or the Load Distribution (LDM) module factory configured for

Positive or Negative battery voltage. (See shelf model numbers, above)

Install the Distribution Module (LDM) breakers if not already installed, in the four front slots of the optional LDM by snapping into the four breaker openings, (“On” or “I” facing up, “Off” or “0” down) ensuring the breaker connector tabs securely seat in the LDM breaker sockets.

(contact ICT Ltd. for instructions on how to remove a circuit breaker from the LDM when installed in a Power Shelf)

Snap in a breaker blanking plate (ICT-BLP) in any unused breaker locations on the LDM

Install one to four matching power modules with the same voltage rating in any remaining open shelf positions. The modules will share the total output load, automatically disconnecting from the internal power bus in the event of an internal failure, and may be “hot-swapped” (you can insert or remove a module while the shelf is powered). Ensure the combined power rating of all the installed power modules exceeds the total requirement of the planned load by at least 700W for true “N+1” redundant operation. (N+1 operation requires excess power module capacity to ensure that the load can be fully powered, even if one power module should fail or be removed)

Carefully align each module with the internal shelf guides and firmly push into the shelf back plane until the module latch clicks into place, and the module is flush with the shelf front panel. Note that Power

Modules can be easily removed by pressing the black release latch located under the module handle to the right while firmly pulling the module from the Power Shelf. (the shelf may be powered while swapping modules)

Snap in a shelf blanking plate (ICT-BPM) into any unused shelf positons to prevent accidental access to the internal circuitry of the shelf.

WARNING

Risk of serious personal injury or damage to equipment and property! Always observe the following!

When using a backup battery ensure the nominal battery voltage is correct for the model of Power Modules installed, and that the battery positive is connected to the positive (+) terminal and the battery negative is connected to the (-) terminal.

Note that the BAT terminal on the BMM may be internally tied to the (+) or (-) shelf output through the LVD contactor, depending on the polarity of the Power Shelf used

Use an appropriate dc over-current protection device such as a fuse or circuit breaker in line with and near to the battery connection

Do not tie either Power Shelf main output to the BAT terminal on the BMM, as this may short circuit the battery or will bypass the internal LVD circuitry in the BMM

Make any earth Ground connection to only a single LOAD or BAT terminal if required. Do not ground both the load and battery as this may bypass the internal LVD circuitry

AC input wiring to the Modular Power Series unit must be protected using an outlet with a branch rated circuit breaker of 30A or lower value

Check that the default system output voltage and current limit match the requirements of the battery and the loads to be connected.

Make Battery Connections to Optional BMM

The optional Battery Management Module (BMM) provides a convenient and safe way to connect an external back-up battery to the modular power system.

A high current Hydraulic-Magnetic circuit breaker (100A standard) provides over current protection, while an internal LVD contactor will disconnect the battery should it discharge below a safe level. Internal battery current monitoring provides a full suite of remote battery charge monitoring features.

WARNING

Risk of serious personal injury or damage to equipment and property! Always observe the following!

Innovative Circuit Technology Ltd. 11

When connecting a battery ensure the nominal battery voltage is correct for the model of Power Modules installed, and that the battery positive is connected to the positive (+) terminal and the battery negative is connected to the (-) terminal. Note that the BAT terminal on the BMM may be internally tied to the (+) or (-) shelf output through the LVD contactor, depending on the polarity of the Power Shelf used.

Check shelf model polarity before connecting a battery to the BMM!

Use the Equalize Charge setting for flooded lead-acid batteries in a well ventilated location only.

Do not use Equalize Charge on sealed batteries!

Do not tie either of the Power Shelf main outputs to the BAT terminal on the BMM, as this may short circuit the battery or will bypass the internal

LVD circuitry in the BMM

Make any earth Ground connection to only a single LOAD or BAT terminal if required. Do not ground both the load and battery as this may bypass the internal LVD circuitry

Use wire and connectors appropriately rated for the highest possible system current when making connections to the battery, BMM, and power shelf

Note:

Check that the default system output voltage and current limit match the requirements of the battery and the loads to be connected. Adjust the system output Voltage and Current Limit (see System Settings section) to match the combined battery and system load requirements before making final connections, if required. Use only identically rated battery strings for the dual battery BMMD option to ensure equal charging of each battery set.

Verify the polarity of BMM installed in your Power Shelf by noting the label under the rear BMM BAT bus bar input. (“

BAT +

” indicates a positive battery voltage system with the LVD contactor and battery breaker connecting this terminal to the shelf

“+” output

, “

BAT –

“ indicates a negative battery voltage system, with the LVD contactor and battery breaker connecting this terminal to the shelf

“–“ output

)

Use wire and connectors appropriately rated for the highest possible system current when making connections to the battery, BMM, and power shelf. Ensure dual battery string systems are wired with matching gauge and length of cables for each string. Check that you are installing the correct BMM configuration for your application per the following table:

Make Load Connections to Optional LDM

The Load Distribution Module (LDM) provides four remotely controlled and monitored outputs, with front panel over current protection provided by hydraulic-magnetic circuit breakers.

System Voltage

12, 24, or 48V

LDM Output Capacity

4 x 20A continuous output (25A pk)

Locate the four controlled outputs on the LDM back panel connector block.

Note that the internal channel relay, current sensor and circuit breaker are in the Hot or output line, with Voltage polarity depending on the configuration of the Power Shelf. (Each output = NEG V, for -48V Power Shelf systems, each output = POS V, for +12, +24, or +48V configured systems)

Verify the polarity of your Modular Power System, and then connect up to four external loads using appropriately rated wire inserted and torqued in the four

Cage-clamp output connector pairs on the LDM module back panel.

Finalize all Shelf Wiring

Make a Network Connection:

Connect a 10/100Base-T Ethernet cable to the

RJ45 LAN port on the back panel to allow for remote monitoring and control of the Power Shelf.

(See the Network Monitoring and Control section for information on configuring and using the built in Web-GUI, e-mail, or SNMP functions)

Check that all connections

to the power supply are correct and tight; re-install the plastic bus bar cover(s) using the original screws provided.

Connect the AC power source

: De-energise the AC source by switching off its circuit breaker. Create a power cable using 3 conductor cord rated for the maximum input current of the unit (Up to 26A max for a 2800W configuration

Innovative Circuit Technology Ltd. 13

operating from a 120Vac line) by stripping and terminating the three wires in the Line, Neutral, and Ground terminals of the removable AC input connector provided with the unit (AC line or neutral to either outer connection, safety ground to the middle pin).

Plug the AC connector into the AC input on the power shelf back panel, and tighten the captive retaining screws.

Wire the source end of the cord to the de-energised AC supply (120V 30A, or

230V 16A, 50 or 60Hz) equipped with a branch rated circuit breaker of 40A or less.

Parallel Shelf Installation

Use a slave Power Shelf for applications that require up to an additional 2800W of DC power. The ICT-SPS standard (Slave) Shelf has no internal ICM, as it is controlled and monitored by the ICM on the main unit, requiring only an additional AC line input connection, a control jumper cable (ICT-JMP) connection, and the installation of tie bars (ICT-PAR) to parallel the shelf outputs.

Do not attempt to connect shelves in series, they are meant for parallel operation only!

The main and the slave power shelf must be installed as a set in adjacent rack locations to ensure the output power tie bars and control cable jumper will correctly fit.

Do not use the internal BMM battery LVD contactor for parallel applications where load current can exceed the 150A maximum rating of the LVD contactor

Do not parallel BMM modules. A battery connection may be made to a single BMM module, with maximum battery current not to exceed the rating of the individual BMM unit (150A)

14 Innovative Circuit Technology Ltd.

Install the Shelf Paralleling Bus Bars (ICT-PAR) and plastic bus bar covers as shown in Figure 6, using the hardware included with the Modular Power

System.

Install the Parallel Control Cable (ICT-JMP) connecting the two RJ-11 style SHARE ports as shown in Figure 6 to allow the Master ICM to control the slave shelf.

(Shelf slots 1 to 4 (front, L to R) are on the main shelf, slots 5 to 8 (front, L to R) on the slave shelf)

Connect alarm monitoring wiring to the Form-C contacts on the slave shelf if desired, to remotely monitor for slave shelf module alarm conditions.

Connect a load to the parallel shelf outputs to utilize the combined power of all power modules installed in the two shelves, or connect the loads to the back panel output ports of any installed LDM modules for built in intelligent power distribution.

Connect a separate AC power cord to each shelf, using independent circuits rated for the full power operation of each shelf.

OPERATION (Front Panel)

Switch on the external AC power source circuit breaker, and check that the green POWER LED is lit on each Power Module, and that the ICM front graphic display is lit.

Your ICT Modular Power System will start up and operate at the factory default settings when AC power is connected, generally requiring no other set up or adjustment for basic operation.

Use the front graphic display and four interface buttons on the Intelligent

Control Module (ICM) to monitor the supply operation and to make changes to settings such as output voltage, current limit, and battery Low Voltage disconnect points. (The display will go off after approximately 60 minutes of no use, and can be re-activated by momentarily pressing any of the front control buttons.)

Battery Management Module

The optional Battery Management Module (BMM) provides a convenient and safe way to connect an external back-up battery (2 matching battery strings with the BMMD) to the modular power system. A high current Hydraulic-

Magnetic circuit breaker (single 100A standard, two on the BMMD) provides over current protection, while an internal LVD contactor will disconnect the battery should it discharge below a safe level. Internal battery current monitoring provides a full suite of remote battery charge monitoring features.

The BMM Status Screen indicates the Battery Voltage (Vdc), the combined

Battery Current (+ Adc for charging, -Adc for discharging), the approximate battery State of Charge (SOC %), and a bar graph showing relative magnitude of the total battery current. A battery graphic marked with

X

indicates the battery is disconnected, replacing the SOC reading, as shown below.

BMM Status Screen with Battery-

Disconnected icon

The SOC% is estimated by counting the Ah flowing into and out of the battery while knowing the nominal rated capacity of the battery (See

BMM Settings

Screen below to adjust the battery Ah capacity) The system resets the SOC to

100% whenever it detects that the battery is at the rated Float Voltage with minimal charge current for at least 24hr.

Output Voltage Control

Make adjustments to the Battery voltage Temperature Coefficient/cell and

Equalize Charge settings to optimize the automatic control of the battery charging voltage, to keep your battery in a good state of health.

Temperature Coefficient/Cell:

Adjust this setting to match the battery manufacturers recommended compensation value in –mV/°C per cell. This value will typically be -4mV/°C for a flooded lead-acid battery (i.e. will compensate output voltage -24mV/°C for a 6 cell 12V battery) to help ensure the battery is fully charged in cold locations, and is not overcharged when warm. Note that the system must have the battery temperature sensor (ICT-TMP) installed on the battery for this setting to have an effect.

(default setting is 0mV, assumes 25°C operation)

Innovative Circuit Technology Ltd. 27

Equalize Voltage:

Adjust this setting to the battery manufacturer’s recommended value for an Equalize (or Boost) charge (for flooded lead-acid batteries only). A regular high voltage Equalize charge will help prevent stratification of the electrolyte in your battery, and can help extend its life.

WARNING

Risk of serious personal injury or damage to equipment and property! Always observe the following:

Equalize charging is intended for Flooded Lead-Acid batteries only, and may produce higher than normal levels of hydrogen gas.

Ensure the battery compartment is well ventilated to avoid any risk of explosion!

Equalize Duration:

Set the duration time (20-240 minutes) for the equalize charge voltage to be applied (as recommended for your battery).

Equalize Interval:

Set the Equalize Charge Interval (0 – 180 days) so the system will perform an automatic Equalize charge once every interval time has elapsed. Set this time to 0 (default) to disable the automatic equalize charge.

Note that an Equalize Charge can only be initiated when the battery is fully charged. Press the Manual Equalize Charge button to manually initiate an equalize charge for the set Duration time once the battery is fully charged.

(System will state that Manual Equalize Charge is Not Ready, if battery is not yet fully charged)

The days since the last equalize charge and the duration of that charge is noted here, along with the days remaining until the next automatic equalize charge. This information is to help track where the system is within the automatic charge cycle.

Configure Battery

Set the rated

Battery Capacity

in Ah (50 to 1000Ah) of the total battery pack connected to the power system, and the discharge

RATE

(in hr) used by the battery manufacturer to determine the battery capacity. Normally the 10 or

20hr rate is used. The system will use this information to help determine the battery state of charge, and remaining battery capacity when in use. Note that connecting two batteries in parallel will double the total Ah capacity, while connecting batteries in series will increase the voltage with no change to the Ah capacity.

LVD Settings

28 Innovative Circuit Technology Ltd.

Set the battery Low Voltage

Disconnect Voltage

threshold to a level that will protect the battery from excessive discharge. (default is 10.5/21/42V) The LVD contactor will open when the battery discharges to this level for at least 30s.

Set the

Reconnect Voltage

to a level at least 1.5V more than the disconnect voltage to prevent the LVD contactor repeatedly cycling on and off. This setting will be used when charging the battery from an external dc source (such as a solar system), otherwise once AC power returns the LVD contactor will automatically close so that the power modules can charge the battery directly.

Battery Over-Current Alarm

Set the shelf output

Over-Current Threshold

to receive an alarm notification when the output current exceeds a set over-current level. Set the threshold to

0A to disable this alarm. (default setting)

Battery Low SOC Alarm

Battery Discharge Test

Configure the Battery Discharge Test settings in this section, so that you may either manually or automatically perform a partial discharge test to gauge the relative capacity of the external battery. You should generally limit the depth of discharge to no more than 50% of the nominal battery capacity to avoid stressing the battery due to a deep discharge.

NOTE:

This test must only be done when AC power will be present during the test and for adequate time after the test to allow for a full re-charging of the battery.

Otherwise the battery may not have sufficient remaining capacity to power the load during an AC power outage.

Set

Max Discharge Time

, minimum

Discharge Voltage Limit

, and the automatic

Discharge Test Interval

if desired. Each time the test is run the output voltage from the power modules will be reduced so that the external battery will power the system load until either the

Max Discharge Time

limit or the

Discharge

Innovative Circuit Technology Ltd. 29

Voltage Limit

is hit. A

Discharge Test Complete

notification (on the front display and with an e-mail if messaging is configured via the Network GUI) indicates the battery is able to power the connected load for the set test duration while maintaining its voltage above the Discharge Voltage Limit. The system will indicate a

Discharge Test Failure

if the minimum Voltage Limit is hit before the

Max Discharge Time limit, as the battery was not able to power the load for the desired duration.

Set the

Discharge Test Interval

(days) to have the system automatically initiate a discharge test every interval, once the battery reaches 100% SOC. Set this interval to 0 days to disable the automatic Discharge Test. (default setting)

You may alternatively manually initiate a Battery Discharge Test of a fully charged battery by changing the

Manual Discharge Test

parameter to

Router Configuration

Use this section to help you set up your Modular Power System with remote

Internet access when it is located behind a router.

A router allows multiple PC’s to share a single Internet connection, and must be configured correctly to forward incoming remote data to the local IP address of your panel.

Example configuration using a Linksys WRT54G router: (others will be similar)

1.

Log into your router and go to the port forwarding screen. In the example Linksys WRT54G router this is located in the Applications and

Gaming tab. The location of the port forwarding fields may be different on your particular router. (consult the router manual for instructions)

2.

Configure HTTP forwarding: a.

Enter a unique name in the

Application

field b.

Enter the HTTP port number that the panel is using in the

Start

and

End

fields. The default HTTP port for the panel is

80

.

42 Innovative Circuit Technology Ltd.

c.

Select

Both

under

Protocol

(TCP and UDP) d.

Enter the local IP address of the panel (e.g. 192.168.0.180) in the

IP address

field. (see step 2 of the

Operation (Network GUI)

section to verify the panel IP address) e.

Check the

Enable

box, and then click on

Save Settings

NOTE:

Many ISP’s block access to port 80, so if your ISP does block this port you must change the HTTP port the panel uses from 80 to something else, such as 8000.

(Valid port numbers are in the range of 1 to 65535) See the

Network Setup

section for information on assigning new network ports.

You must also change the panel’s HTTP port from 80 if your local network has another device (such as a panel, or web server) already using port 80.

3.

Configure HTTPS forwarding by repeating steps 2a to 2e with the HTTPS port number that the panel is using. The default HTTPS port number is

443

.

4.

Set up your router to allow remote firmware upgrades to the panel by repeating steps 2a to 2e with the UDP port number the panel is using.

(default UDP port is

9393

) This step is optional if firmware upgrades are to be done locally.

Router Port Forwarding Screen

Innovative Circuit Technology Ltd. 43

5.

Determine the WAN IP address of your router assigned by the ISP. With the example router this information is on the

Status

tab, listed as

IP

Address

.

NOTE:

When using a dynamic IP address the router’s WAN IP address may change from time to time without warning, depending on your ISP. In this case you should obtain a Static IP address from your ISP (it will not change) which will ensure more predictable access to the panel from a remote location. If a static IP address is not available you can use a Dynamic DNS service such as

Dyn ( www.dyn.com

) to provide a stable address for the router.

6.

To access the panel over the internet type the WAN IP address of the router in the location/address field of your browser, followed by a colon and the HTTP port number the panel is using. (e.g.

http://209.123.10.33:8000

for a router address

209.123.10.33

, port

8000

)

Panel Access with Router Address

Text Message Notifications

The panel can send alarm notifications as text messages to a cell phone by configuring the alarm e-mails to be sent to your mobile phone service provider.

On the

E-mail Setup

page of the web based utility enter the address of your phone in the

Recipient E-mail Address

field.

Example with an AT&T phone: enter the recipient address

cellnumber

@txt.att.net

, replacing

cellnumber

with your 10 digit cell phone number.

Troubleshooting Network Communications

I am unable to access the web-based configuration utility:

Check that you are using the correct IP address for the system by downloading and running the

ICT IP Address Discovery tool

http://www.ictcorporate.com/resources/tools/

Check the network cable connections to the panel and the network

Ensure the network card settings on your computer are configured for accessing the IP address of the MPS. To access a panel with the default

IP address of 192.168.0.180 the typical network settings for your computer are: o

IP Address: 192.168.0.180 o

Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0 o

Gateway: 192.168.0.1

If the HTTP port of the panel has been changed, you must append the new port number to the URL used to access the panel. (See the

Network Setup

section) See the

Password Reset

section for details on how to reset the port number to the factory default value.

If your network switch allows you to manually configure port speed and duplex settings, turn-on “

Auto Negotiation

” for the switch port that the panel is connected to.

I forgot my password:

See the Password Reset section of the manual

I am not receiving e-mails from the panel:

Verify that the

Send-E-mail

checkboxes are ticked for any alarm conditions for which you wish to receive e-mail notifications.

Verify your e-mail settings by going to the

Communications/Maintenance

page on the unit’s web GUI and clicking on the

Send Test E-mail

button, to send a test message to your designated recipient addresses. The

Send Test E-mail

box will show an error message if the system is unable to send the e-mail.

Innovative Circuit Technology Ltd. 45

Check on the

Communications/E-mail Setup

page and ensure the

SMTP Server

field is the correct address for your e-mail provider, and the

SMTP Port

is correct. (Port should be 25 for most servers)

If your SMTP server requires SSL encryption, ensure the

SMTP Server requires SSL

checkbox is ticked. Otherwise leave blank.

If your SMTP server requires authentication ensure that the

SMTP User

Name

and

SMTP Password

fields are correctly entered.

STATUS INDICATORS AND ALARMS

The status of the Modular Power System generally is indicated on the front graphic display module on units equipped with the ICM, or via the network GUI on remotely monitored units. Green “POWER” and red “FAULT” LED’s on the power modules, along with the Form-C alarm contacts on the back panel indicate the core status of power shelf, even on non-ICM equipped units.

On Intelligent ICM equipped systems there is an option on the Setup page in the

GUI for most alarms to make a selection to have the system send an Email to designated addresses for remote notification.

All alarms and warnings will be displayed on the ICM front graphic display on

Intelligent Power Shelf systems, and entered in the Alarm History log. (Most recent 20 alarms listed)

Alarms generally reset automatically when the trigger condition is removed.

Major alarms such as a Module DC Output Failure or Module Configuration Error require that the module be temporarily removed to cycle input power and clear the fault.
