System Cabling Limitations

There are some general limitations that must be taken into account when designing a dispenser and ordering hardware elements of a Personal Shopper system.
  • No more than six cradles can be powered off each leg of the “Y” power cable.
  • A power supply cable runs from the power supply to one or two cradles.
  • Cradle interconnection cables run between each successive cradle in the chain.
  • The power supply is air-cooled, and as such needs some circulation of fresh air around it. Do not enclose it in a small airtight location.
  • Power supplies must be mounted in their natural, landscape orientation. They contain fans and their vents must allow for the free flow of air.
  • Power supplies should be mounted either above or below dispensers and entrance heads. Mounting of power supplies to the right or left is not preferred.
  • When laying out your furniture and cabling plan, routing should be as direct as possible. Routing should follow vertical and horizontal runs through the modules. A set of labels, numbered 1 to 12, is part of each power supply unit. These labels are to be used to track the number of loads on a particular supply. Each label is designed to be attached to the cradle interconnection cable when a cradle is added to the daisy chain. When all labels are used, the supply is fully loaded.

The following images show how the maximum number of cradles can be cabled to a power supply using the “Y” power cable CBL-DC-392A1-02. Note that there are only six cradles per leg of the power supply cable and only 12 cradles in total in Standard Charge Mode. Fast Charge Mode is limited to 9 cradles in total.
