Power supply modules create the voltages required internally by the PLC from a 24 VDC input
voltage. Each main and expansion unit requires its own power supply module. The power supply
module always has to be operated in the far left slot of the backplane. All power supply modules
require two slots.

Power Supply Input Voltage Output Power Interface for System Expansions
PS465 Max. 60 W Expansion slot
24 VDC
PS477 Max. 58.5 W Expansion slave
3.1.2 Slots
The power supply must always be located on the far left slot.
When configuring a system, make sure that the power consumption of all modules installed is
not larger than the output power of the power supply module. If a power supply unit cannot
provide the power required by the modules, install the I/O modules on an expansion backplane.
Power supply modules are equipped with an internal current limit (short circuit protection) and
have connections for an external buffer voltage (AC240 battery module). The current limitation
is also activated if the modules require more power than the power supply can deliver. This
causes a reset on the CPU without a power failure having occurred.

1) For the PS477 power supply module, these connections are only meaningful when used in the main rack.
2) Contacts for the READY relay when the PLC is switched off.
Power supply modules have LED displays which indicate specific operational states:
If a reset occurs, the ready relay reacts to a loss in current by stopping the entire PLC through
the programming system. It can be set or reset by the operating system. Errors that cause the
relay to open are defined in the operating system.
It is also possible using software to define other errors that should cause a drop in the ready
relay. The ready relay is coupled with the status LED "RUN" on the CPU.
The READY relay is controlled by the CPU. Therefore the pin assignments listed
for the power supply PS477 are only valid for use in a main backplane.
Wiring the ready relay is carried out using the 10-pin terminal block. The ready relay contact can
be integrated in the emergency stop circuit:
3.1.7 Fuse
The power supply is equipped with a fuse which protects it from reverse polarity and overload.
The compartment for the fuse is located behind the module door.
2) Touch the mounting rail or ground connection (not the power supply!) in order to discharge
any electrostatic charge from your body.
4) Loosen fuse holder by turning with a screwdriver in the direction shown by the arrow
9) Tighten fuse holder by turning with a screwdriver in the opposite direction as shown by the
arrow
Power supply module PS465 has an expansion slot. The XP152 CPU e.g. can be placed in this
expansion slot.
An expansion slave is integrated into the PS477 power supply module which allows another I/O
bus segment to be started (see Chapter 2 "Installation", Section 2 "System Configuration and
Power Supply", on page 54).
Interfaces for bus expansion are located behind the module door:
• Interface 1 (expansion slave IN) is connected with the EX350 I/O master controller or with
interface 2 of a PS477 power supply module.
• Interface 2 (expansion slave OUT) is connected with interface 1 of another PS477 power
supply module.
The remote slave EX250 can be inserted in the expansion slot on power supply module PS465.
The remote slave can be connected to the remote master bus cable on 2005 or 2010 systems.
With remote expansion (remote I/O), the expansion unit (remote slave) can be up to 1200 m
away from the main unit (remote master). With a repeater, the network can be extended even
further. Without a repeater, a maximum of 31 remote slaves can be connected to a remote
master.
