Protege DIN Rail 4A Intelligent Power Supply

The Protege DIN Rail 4A Intelligent Power Supply provides the Protege system with 12VDC power, ideal for
running security, access control or automation devices along with large numbers of Protege network
powered modules in the same installation.

The power supply includes intelligent charging for optimum performance and allows for simple and
powerful monitoring of supply currents and voltages.

Reliable Power Delivery

The Protege DIN Rail 4A Intelligent Power Supply is capable of supplying power to a large number of smaller devices or
multiple high-current devices with a combined total output of 4 amps. A battery charging circuit current of 500mA is
also provided by the power supply.

A continuous source of power is maintained with the inclusion of intelligent battery backup charging, optimal level
maintenance and seamless switch on AC failure. The battery backup, AC status and core temperature are constantly
monitored, and failure conditions are communicated to the Protege system.

Battery Backup
The backup battery plays an important role in power conditioning and provides a continuous source of power in the
event of a power outage.

The battery test procedure uses a proprietary algorithm to prevent deep discharge and increase battery endurance. A
dynamic battery test is performed every ten minutes when mains power is present, and a battery condition alarm will be
generated if the battery is disconnected or shows poor capacity. Battery fault conditions will activate the associated
battery trouble input.

In addition to the dynamic battery test procedure the power supply performs a battery presence test every 60 seconds.
If no backup battery is detected a battery condition alarm will be generated and the associated trouble input will be
activated.

Upon reconnection of mains power the power supply automatically detects the backup battery and begins controlled
charging.

Intelligent Power Monitoring
The power supply is able to relay information about critical system voltages, currents and core temperature to the
Protege GX integrated system controller.

The controller can then store these values in variables which can be viewed live from the Protege GX system interface
and monitored on a status page or floor plan, along with logging for review at any time.

Communication
A single RS-485 communication interface port used for all network communication functions and interconnection to
other modules.

Power Supply Outputs

The power supply has two 50mA outputs that can operate as either programmable outputs or predefined status
outputs.

While in online mode the two outputs function as programmable outputs and can be used to activate bell sirens, lighting
circuits, door locks, relay accessory products and other automation points.

While in offline mode the two outputs function as status outputs. In addition to the comprehensive front panel
diagnostic indicators these status outputs offer additional information that can aid in diagnosing faults and conditions.

LED Indicators
The power supply features comprehensive diagnostic indicators that can aid in diagnosing faults and conditions.
LED indicators on the power supply include:

> Status indicator

> Fault indicator
> Power indicator
> V1 output/V2 output indicators
> Battery indicator
> Temp indicator
> Output current indicator

Upgradable Firmware
Utilizing the latest flash technology and high performance communication mediums, the firmware can be updated via
the Protege interface.
