Isense+ (1 - 4)
Isense- (1 - 4)
These lines connect to the current sense bus on the Switch/Load Unit backplane. These
lines are used for sensing current on a selected load card channel. The 8-channel and
16-channel load cards are designed to connect to the current sense bus. Each load card
channel’s current sense lines are multiplexed so that on each card only one channel at a
time can be connected to the current sense bus. The current sense lines and the slots
they connect to are:
Isense lines (1) connect to Switch/Load Unit slots 1 - 5.
Isense lines (2) connect to Switch/Load Unit slots 6 - 10.
Isense lines (3) connect to Switch/Load Unit slots 11 - 15.
Isense lines (4) connect to Switch/Load Unit slots 16 - 21.
Two or more sets of the above lines can be bussed together select from toggle switches.
Refer to page 12 for details.
