Instrument Care and Safety Information
Please read the whole of this section before using your ViaLiteHD product. It contains important safety
information and will enable you to get the most out of your Fibre Optic Link.
Electrical Safety
The ViaLiteHD rack chassis is a Safety Class 1 product (having metal chassis directly connected to earth via the
power supply cable).
When operating the equipment note the following precautions:
Hazardous voltages exist within the equipment. There are no user serviceable parts inside; the covers should
only be removed by a qualified technician.
There are no user replaceable fuses in the rack chassis mounted equipment. Replacement should only be
carried out by a PPM technician.
The rack chassis earth stud SHOULD be connected to the safety earth.
When using a 2 pin power supply cable the rack chassis earth stud MUST be connected to the safety earth.
The ViaLiteHD Power Supply Modules do not have an isolating switch on the mains voltage inlet. For this
reason, the ViaLiteHD Rack Chassis must be installed within easy reach of a clearly labelled dual pole mains
isolation switch, which supplies the equipment.
ESD Precautions The ViaLiteHD RF Fibre Optic Link is equipped with high frequency active electronics, without the correct handing they
will be susceptible to damage.
Precautions for handling electro-static sensitive devices should be observed when handling all ViaLiteHD modules.
Technicians should ensure that they use effective personal grounding (i.e. ESD wrist strap etc.) when servicing the
equipment. Any equipment or tools used should be grounded to prevent static charge build-up. Good practice should
be observed at all times for reference see relevant standards.
EN 61340-5-1, “Protection of Electronic Devices from Electrostatic Phenomena – General Requirements”

laser diodes) operating at nominal wavelengths of 1270nm to 1610nm.
These devices are rated as EN60825-1 as CLASS 1 radiation emitting devices. A class 1 laser is safe under all
conditions of normal use.
When operating the equipment note the following precautions:
Never look into the end of an optical fibre directly or by reflection either with the naked eye or through an optical
instrument.
Never leave equipment with radiating bare fibres –always cap the connectors.
Do not remove equipment external covers when operating.
Hot surface The ViaLiteHD Summary alarm module may have hot surfaces when operating under fulll load. The hot surfaces are

2 Summary alarm module, physical interfaces
This section describes the connections between your ViaLiteHD modules and the Summary alarm module. There is no need to install any
interface cables between summary alarm module and connected modules, as these are all connected via the rack chassis backplane.
Please read fully all relevant documents for information on installing your ViaLiteHD equipment before commissioning your system.
Module operation, 7HP standard plug-in module
All ViaLiteHD plug-in modules are hot-swappable, so it is not necessary to power-down the rack chassis before inserting a module. All
electrical connectors are retained by the module. So it is necessary to either disconnect any cables or have a sufficiently long service loop.
To install a 7HP Standard module
Push the release button of the module handle down and simultaneously pull the top of the handle forwards.
Align the module upright and perpendicular to the front face of the rack chassis so that the PCB slides into the “crow’s feet” card guides
top and bottom.
Gently push the module down its guide, applying pressure via the handle, you may also apply pressure between the LED and buzzer.
As the module is fully mated the top of the handle should snap back and lock in position.
The pawls of the handle should be fully engaged in the matching slots.
If power is applied to the rack chassis the module power LED should light as soon as the module is fully inserted
Connect any interface cables
To remove a 7HP Standard module
Disconnect any cables if necessary
Push the release button of the module handle down and simultaneously pull the top of the handle forwards.
Apply pressure via the handle and gently withdraw the module from the rack chassis.

When in automatic mode, manual alarm masking DIP switches (SW2 positions 1-8, SW3 positions 2-8) are ignored.
When operating in automatic mode the module executes the following procedure to determine which slots to mask, typically these will be
empty slots. It is important when powering up a
1. After power is applied the module waits for all other cards to boot

PULSE POWER &MEASUREMENT LTD
10
2. It then sequentially poles the I2C bus of each slot to determine if that slot is occupied
oIf that slot responds to the I2C, the inventory for that slot has the module type added, the alarm for this slot is active
oIf that slot does not respond, the inventory for that slot is marked as empty, the alarm for this slot is masked (inactive)
3. Unintelligent module slots don’t have I2C bus connections they have their alarm status checked to determine presence.
oIf that slot has a okay status, the alarm for this slot is active
oIf that slot has an active alarm, the alarm for this slot is masked (inactive)
NOTE: Unintelligent slots default to alarm active when unfitted
4. Only active alarms are reported
After power up the module will also run periodic inventory updates to check if new modules are added
2.4.2 User configuration DIP switches, load resistors SW5
This function is provided to ensure that when redundant power supplies are used, there is enough current for both power supplies to be
active. The module can provide a maximum load of 12 watts load, this load can be switched in 3 watt steps
Load 0 / 3 / 6 / 9/ 12 watts switched
Control via switch selection, using four DIP switches, see section 2.4
Setting* (3U rack only) 1 or 2 modules fitted all four switches ON
(3U rack only) 3 or 4 modules fitted three switches ON
(3U rack only) 5 or 6 modules fitted two switches ON
(3U rack only) 7 or 8 modules fitted one switch ON
(3U rack only) 9 or more modules fitted, set all to OFF
(1U rack only) set all switches OFF
* These calculations assume the lowest possible power consumption to meet the minimum load specification, a more accurate calculation
can be made by using the modules datasheets or handbooks.
Note: There is no minimum load requirement for a 1U rack, in this case all load resistors should be OFF

3 Setting up the summary alarm module
Your summary alarm module is delivered fully configured and ready to work. Below are details of how to change from these default
configurations
Default configuration
The module is delivered with the following configuration.
ALARM MASKING AUTOMATIC
MANUAL MASK all slots OFF
LOAD switches all OFF
Setting the Alarm masking, manual mode
Details of the DIP switch positions are given in section 2.4.1. If you wish to configure your module to have alarms manually masked follow
the sequence below. Any masked slot will have its alarm output ignored. Unpopulated slots will generate alarms, therefore these should be
masked. DIP switches can be accessed with the module partially withdrawn.
1. Set SW3 position 1 to OFF, this configures the module for manual alarm masking
2. Each slot that you wish to mask the alarm of be should be set to OFF, using DIP switches SW2 and SW3
3. Each slot that you wish to monitor should be set to ON, using DIP switches SW2 and SW3
Setting the Alarm masking, automatic mode
Details of the DIP switch positions are given in section 2.4.1. If you wish to configure your module to have alarms automatically masked
follow the sequence below. Any masked slot will have its alarm output ignored. DIP switches can be accessed with the module partially
withdrawn.
1. Set SW3 position 1 to ON, this configures the module for manual alarm masking
2. Set all other DIP switches of SW2 and SW3 to OFF
Unpopulated slots will not respond to the I2C pole therefore these will all be masked. When in automatic mode, manual alarm masking DIP
switches (SW2 positions 1-8, SW3 positions 2-8) are ignored
Setting the load DIP switches
Detail of the DIP switch positions are given in section 2.4.2. If you wish to activate any of the resistive loads follow the sequence below.
DIP switches can be accessed with the module partially withdrawn.
1. Calculate the additional load required, see section 2.4.2.
2. Round this load up to the nearest three watt step
3. Switch the appropriate number of DIP switches of SW5 to the ON position
Note. If sufficient load is not applied, it is possible for a PSU front panel power LED to be GREEN and the “power good” output to be LOW
(alarm state), in this case the power supply will not be registered by the ViaLiteHD control cards.
