# PS and NPS modes parameters

## Parameters with standard power supply

The parameters with a standard 24V, 1.5A power supply are as follows:

<table><thead><tr><th width="252">Parameter</th><th width="92">Value</th><th>Comment</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>Output voltage</td><td>24V-Vd</td><td>The voltage on the output will be about 0.5V lower than the power supply output voltage. The voltage drop Vd depends on the current and is caused by the voltage drop on power supply input protecting elements F20 and D21, shown on the schematic below.</td></tr><tr><td>Max output current per channel</td><td>1A </td><td>Relay limit.</td></tr><tr><td>Max total output current for all 3 channels</td><td>1.25A</td><td>The unit itself may need up to 250mA.</td></tr><tr><td>Isolation</td><td></td><td>If the output channels are set as power output, then they are NOT isolated and are all electrically connected to the power supply.</td></tr><tr><td>Protection</td><td></td><td>The power supply input is equipped with PolySwitch® Resettable PPTC with 2A hold current and 3.5A trip current, 44V overvoltage protection and opposite polarity protection.</td></tr></tbody></table>

## Parameters with non standard power supply

CG1018 can be supplied with **10 to 36V DC** power supply.&#x20;

If the power supply delivers Vout volts and maximum Imax amps then the parameters with such a non standard power supply are as follows:

<table><thead><tr><th width="239">Parameter</th><th width="96">Value</th><th>Comment</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>Output voltage</td><td>Vout-Vd</td><td>The voltage on the output will be about 0.5V lower than the power supply output voltage. The voltage drop Vd depends on the current and is caused by the voltage drop on power supply input protecting elements F20 and D21, shown on the schematic below.</td></tr><tr><td>Max output current per channel</td><td>1A </td><td>Relay limit.</td></tr><tr><td>Max total output current for all 3 channels</td><td>2A</td><td>Under the condition the max current per channel is no more than 1A. The limit is defined by F20 polyswitch.</td></tr><tr><td>Imax</td><td></td><td>250mA for the unit itself plus the sum of currents for all three channels.</td></tr><tr><td>Isolation</td><td></td><td>If the output channels are set as power output, then they are NOT isolated and are all electrically connected to the power supply.</td></tr><tr><td>Protection</td><td></td><td>The power supply input is equipped with PolySwitch® Resettable PPTC with 2A hold current and 3.5A trip current, 44V overvoltage protection and opposite polarity protection.</td></tr></tbody></table>

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://help.boomerang3.com/cg1018-relay-box-installation-manual/installation/hardware-configuration/ps-and-nps-modes/ps-and-nps-modes-parameters.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
