Older Green TX board

Post by Anthony Sloan »

I have a green RX and TX board. All the connection diagrams I see have more connection terminals than mine, it only has seven. The board is printed THC_TX 210721. I am trying to connect my pos and neg wires from my 45XP cable but I am unsure if the pos wire should goto ground or the ANHV terminal. I would greatly appreciate help with this matter.

Hi Anthony,

Schematics are available here. You can search for "GREEN THC" (without the quotation marks) to find all schematics available for those revisions of THC boards.

Here is the THC bench test schematic.
And here is an example schematic for the PowerMax 45/65/85 with float switch and breakaway.

I have looked at every Plasma PDF and none have my terminals.

so, that schm does not have my terminals... Did you look at the picture I attached of my board? If you will notice in my picture the last terminal is labeled ANHV

Hi Anthony,
I did look at your picture, ANHV is an unused terminal which is why the schematic is showing it as No Connection (NC). Please do not connect anything to that terminal.

Thank you for clearing up this issue. This is very expensive equipment and I have to be certain everything is correct.

The POSITIVE voltage divided output goes to ground and the NEGATIVE voltage divided output goes to ANLV. Just as the diagram shows. Do not mix these up.

I had connected everything as the diagram shows. That really is not the problem. The problem is that there is not documentation that shows the ANHV terminal that my board has on it. They need to make a note that if your board has the ANHV terminal to just disregard it instead of saying nothing about it at all. Simple enough to just put it in the notes for the Green Boards. I guess I must have purchased mine when they first became available and they probably quickly changed the print on that terminal to NC or maybe it was a mistake. I just wanted to know without question that the schematic was correct even though my board had the ANHV instead of NC on that terminal...
