LifeSafety Power B100 Instruction manual

Connecting the B100 Secondary Power Supply
hRemove all AC and battery power from the FPO system before adding or replacing a B100 board.
hObserve polarity of the DCIN and BR Connections or damage to the system could occur.
Description
This Quick Install manual gives the basic information needed
to install a B100 board. For more complete information get
the full B100 manual here:
www.lifesafetypower.com/tools/installation-manuals
The B100 provides an additional voltage in a FlexPower sys-
tem. This voltage can either be accessed directly via the B100's
terminals or through other FlexPower Accessory Boards. The
B100’s input is typically supplied by the B1 buss in the system,
allowing the FPO’s battery set to back up the B100’s output
voltage without the need for a second battery set. Output set-
tings for the B100 include a fixed 12V setting and an adjustable
setting of 5 to 18V. Multiple B100s can be added to a system
for virtually unlimited voltage combinations. z
Mounting the B100 Secondary Power Supply
Mounting of the B100 Board to an enclosure is via the four
snap-in standoffs supplied.
1. Locate the appropriate
mounting holes in the
enclosure and snap
the standoffs into the
holes.
2. Align the board mount-
ing holes with the
standoffs (be sure the PC board is properly oriented)
and snap the board onto the standoffs.

B100 Current Loading
Power drawn from the B100 subtracts from the power available from the FPO supplying the B100. The most accurate
way to determine the draw from the FPO is to calculate the actual power draw and factor in the efficiency of the B100.
PI= PO*1.15
Where:
PI= Input power of the B100
PO= Output power draw on the B100

IThe DC In, DC Out, and BR terminals run
through the board for daisy chaining and each
terminal set is interchangeable from a functional
standpoint.
Either DC IN may be used, either DC Out may be
used or either BR may be used interchangeably.

1
DC IN Connectors (J1 & J4)
These fastons are the input to the B100. Either faston may be
used as the input. Two connections are provided to allow this
voltage to pass through to other accessory boards in the sys-
tem. This input voltage must always be at least 3 volts above
the output voltage setting for the B100 to maintain its output.
2
DC OUT Connectors (J2 & J5)
These fastons are the output of the B100 for connection to other
accessories in the system. This output may be considered as an
equivalent to the DC1 faston of an FPO power supply. Either or
both DC OUT fastons may be used in the system.
IEnsure there are no other voltage sources
connected to the buss before powering the system
or damage WILL occur.
3
BR Connectors (J3 & J6)
The DC Common buss in the system. All boards in the
system must have their BR fastons wired together for
proper operation (except for between the DC and AC sec-
tions of an FPX hybrid system).
4
DC IN LED (D1) – Green
This LED indicates the availability of voltage on the DC IN
Buss. When voltage is available on the buss, the LED is lit.
5
FAULT LED (D7) – Yellow
This LED lights when the B100 detects a fault condition. This
fault condition also transmits to the FPO power supply .
Fault conditions detected include ruptured output fuse, no
output, output overload, or output voltage out of regulation.
6
FlexIO Connectors (JP1 & JP2)
These connectors allow the fault status of the B100 to be
transmitted to the FPO power supply and pass the FlexIO
buss on to other accessory boards in the system.
7
Output Voltage Selection (JP3 & VR1)
This jumper selects the output voltage for the B100 and
the potentiometer sets the output voltage when in the ad-
justable range. In adjustable range, voltage may be set
from 5 to 18VDC. Possible jumper settings are as follows:
• 12V Out JP3 Position 1
• Adjustable OutputJP3 Position 2
IThe VR1 potentiometer will have no effect unless the
jumper is set for the adjustable range.
Note that the input must be at least 3V above the output voltage
setting or the B100 will display a fault condition. It may be help-
ful to temporarily set the input power supply to 24V (Remove
load devices first) before setting the B100 output voltage.
8
DC Output
This is the output terminal strip. This terminal strip is
non-removable and accepts wire sizes from AWG12 –
AWG22. The terminals are labeled on the PC board by the
terminal strip.
ICAUTION When powering magnetic loads such as
maglocks, door strikes, solenoids, etc, each of these loads
must have a reverse protection diode either built-in or external
to the device.
9
Output Fuse (F1)
This fuse protects the DC Output terminals. It does not pro-
tect the DC OUT faston.
bk
DC OUT LED (D4) – Green
This LED indicates the availability of voltage on the DC OUT
Buss. When voltage is available on the buss, the LED is lit.
