AC Power Distribution

Circuit/Mechanical Descriptions
For purposes of this description, assume the Workstation is connected to facility power correctly, and the Workstation and C-Arm
are correctly connected via the Interconnect Cable. Before you turn on the Workstation power switch, 115VAC_PH is present at
connector P5 of the C-Arm Power/Signal Interface PCB, and energizes the battery charger light and the battery charger.
However, at this point, no power is available for any other C-Arm circuits.
When you turn on the workstation, KEY POWER is turned on, and connects 115VAC_PH to the other C-Arm circuits, thus
initiating the bootup process.
In addition to the battery charger, AC power is distributed to Power Supply PS1, PS2, PS3, and the stator, as illustrated in the
following diagram:

Note: For clarity, the return connections are not described in the following circuit descriptions. These descriptions are intended
only to show you how things work, not to go into full details of the entire power system.

AC Power to PS1 and PS2

Whenever the Workstation power switch is on, PS1 and PS2 are held energized by Key Power as follows:
1. On the Power Signal Interface PCB, incoming operating power (115VAC_PH) flows through fuse F4, then leaves the PCB as
115VAC_PH_IN.
2. The 115VAC_PH_IN enters the Power Motor Relay PCB, and goes to the input contact of the K10 relay. When the contact is
switched, the power returns to the Power Signal Interface PCB as 115VAC_PH_SW.
3. Key Power furnished by the Workstation via the Interconnect cable energizes the K10 relay coil when the Workstation is
turned on. Refer to the following diagram:
4. For PS1, the 115VAC_PH_SW passes through Fuse F6 and Line Filter LF2 on the Power/Motor Relay PCB, and exits at
Connector P9.
5. For PS2, the 115VAC_PH_SW passes through Fuse F6 and Fuse F10, on the Power/Motor Relay PCB, and exits at
connector P4.

Key Power Distribution

AC Power to PS3

a. AC power comes from K10 in the Power/Motor Relay PCB and goes into the Power/Signal Interface PCB as
115VAC_PH_SW, as described above.
b. Rather than pass through F6 as above, a separate path loops back out to the Power/Motor Relay PCB as
115VAC_PH_MTR.
c. The 115VAC_PH_MTR connects to the K16 relay, then in series to the K15 relay. With the relays in switched state, the
signal becomes MOTOR_115VAC, exiting the PCB and connecting to PS3. As with PS1 and PS2, PS3 is held
energized through the K10 relay.
d. PS3 is further controlled by the coils of the K16 and K15 relay, which are energized as described in the Lift Column
section of this manual.

AC Power Distribution

AC Power to the Battery Charger and Light

a. With the Workstation either on or off, 115VAC_PH enters the Power Signal Interface PCB, flows through fuse F5, Line
Filter LF1, and the inrush current limiter RT2, then leaves the PCB as 115VAC_PH_CH. This power then connects to the
Battery Charger PCB. In this manner, power is always available at the battery charger whether or not the Workstation or
C-Arm is operating.
b. The Battery Charger Indicator Lamp, mounted on the C-Arm Interface Panel, is energized by the 115VAC_PH_IN
power, as described in AC Power to PS1and PS2, above in this section. The significance of this connection is that the
Battery Charger Indicator Lamp will be illuminated at all times that the Workstation is correctly connected to facility
power. This is a safety feature, warning personnel that power exists in the C-Arm even when the Workstation is not
operating.
c. Whenever the Interconnect Cable is disconnected from the C-Arm, AC power is removed from the pins supplying the C-
Arm AC input power, for safety reasons. If the Interconnect Cable is plugged in while the Workstation is connected to
facility power, the C-Arm power is turned on after a short delay of about a second. This also applies if a complete
system is plugged into facility power.

WARNING: Full operating power (115 VAC single phase) exists at the intervening circuit
connections, even if the C-Arm failed to complete boot-up.

AC Power to the Stator

The 115VAC_PH_MTR, as described above, is under the control of Relay K10 on the Power/Motor Relay PCB. This power
divides two ways-one to the K15/K16 relays as described above. The other branch is conducted to the K1 relay on the same
PCB, which is controlled by circuitry explained in the Stator Power and Control section.
