RADIO FREQUENCY INTERFERENCE STATEMENTS
This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio-frequency energy, and if
not installed and used properly, that is, in strict accordance with the manufacturer’s
instructions, may cause interference to radio communication. It has been tested
and found to comply with the limits for a Class A computing device in accordance
with the specifications in Subpart B of Part 15 of FCC rules, which are designed to
provide reasonable protection against such interference when the equipment is
operated in a commercial environment. Operation of this equipment in a
residential area is likely to cause interference, in which case the user at his own
expense will be required to take whatever measures may be necessary to correct
the interference.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible
for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class A limits for radio noise emission
from digital apparatus set out in the Radio Interference Regulation of Industry
Canada.
EUROPEAN UNION DECLARATION OF CONFORMITY
The manufacturer declares that this product meets the requirements of
EU Directive 89/336/EEC for EMC and LVD safety for ITE 73/23/EEC.

2. Introduction
2.1 Overview
Magenta’s MultiView™ series Mini Dense Pack PS is a small desktop or rack
mount (with optional kit) central power supply solution primarily for MultiView
products. Featuring dual 5VDC and 12VDC outputs, the Mini Dense Pack power
supply can also be used to power non Magenta Research products.
This manual covers the Magenta MultiView™ Mini Dense Pack power supply set
up and operation.
WARNING
Observe proper polarity when connecting devices . Reversing polarities
or connecting to the wrong voltage may damage the Mini Dense Pack
and or the attached device.
Generally, the positive (+) conductor has a white line.
Always verify plus/minus cable conductors before connection to the Mini
Dense Pack.
2.2 Supplied Cabling
The MultiView™ Series Mini Dense Pack is supplied with 6 six foot DC power
cables for use with MultiView series equipment. Additional cables may be ordered
with part number 8450333.
For customers in North America, an IEC320 AC cord is supplied. Non US
customers need to supply a suitable IEC power mains cord.

CHAPTER 3: SETUP & INSTALLATION
3. Setup and Installation
3.1 Set Up
Install the unit as a desktop or rack mount (with optional rack mount kit).
Ensure unit has adequate ventilation around it.
Plug AC cord into corresponding AC mains outlet.
Connect 5VDC and/or 12VDC devices using supplied 3 position captive screw
connectors. Both 5VDC and 12VDC voltages may be used simultaneously. No
internal configurations are necessary.
CAUTION:
Observe proper polarity when connecting devices . Reversing polarities
or connecting to the wrong voltage may damage the Mini Dense Pack
and or the attached device.
Generally, the positive (+) conductor has a white line.
Always verify plus/minus cable conductors before connection to the Mini
Dense Pack.
Total output power capacity is over 100 Watts and each port can provide
power up to the following levels:
12 Volts DC @ 700 mA (8.4W)
5 Volts DC @ 1.67 A (8.35W).
Up to 100 watts of power can be supplied by any combination of ports so long
as the maximum current rating for any given port is not exceeded.
Status LEDs on each port indicate 5VDC and 12VDC operation (OK) as well
as over current limits exceeded (Fault). Additionally, when the unit has
reached 90% capacity of either 5 or 12 Volts a front panel LED indicates this.

3.2 Connections on the Mini Dense Pack
The Mini Dense Pack can service multiple devices on a single port as long as the
total port power rating is not exceeded. Please reference individual device
power ratings to determine the total number of devices that can be powered on
each port as well as the entire unit.
Each port of the dense Pack is protected by the means of a self resetting current
limiting fuse.
Over current sensing will cause the fuse to open, removing the port’s load from the
power supply. Once over current situation is resolved, the fuse once again will
allow normal operation.

4. Troubleshooting
4.1 Common Problems
In most cases, nearly every issue with the MultiView™ Series can be resolved by
checking the AC mains and DC connections to each of the MV units.
Problem: No power LED at Mini Dense Pack.
Solution: • Check AC connection at both unit and at outlet
• Ensure Mini Dense Pack is plugged in and outlet is live.
• Check fuse at AC switch inlet.
Problem: Powered Unit shuts off after period of time
Solution: • Over current situation may be present, causing DC port protection
device to shut down port. Check DC cable for shorts or mis-pining.
Problem: Mini Dense Pack turned on, but no or low voltage at outputs.
Solution: • Check for unit load exceeding units maximum rating.
• Check for over temperature condition ( lack of rack ventilation ).
( power supply entered thermal shutdown )
• Check for cabling issues ( one output shorted to another output)
