    Jaguar requires the use of the Midtronics PSC-550 / PSC-550S Vehicle Power Supply as an external power
    source anytime IDS is connected to a vehicle, especially when conducting module programming.
    The Midtronics PSC550 power supply unit is not designed to recharge low batteries. If the vehicle battery is low,
    the battery must be recharged to the approved level as specified in the Jaguar Battery Care Manual. It is also not
    advisable to connect or leave connected a battery charger of any brand / model to the vehicle during module
    programming. Under these circumstances, the output of the battery charger may be too high and create electrical
    noise on the vehicle electrical system which is known to create communications issues between IDS and the
    vehicle in some cases.
    'Smart' battery chargers, including the Midtronics GR1 unit, may switch / modulate charging rates to re-condition a
    partially sulfated battery or to protect internal circuitry. Electrical surges created by many 'smart battery chargers
    or poorly regulated transformers on inexpensive battery chargers can create voltage spikes and electrical noise of
    sufficient volume to interrupt module programming.
    Listed below are the 'Best Practices' that should be followed:
    • Start with a known good battery (open circuit voltage minimum of 12.5 volts)
    • Before connecting the PSC-550 ensure the following guidelines are followed.
    • Ensure the AC outlet that the PSC-550 is to be plugged into is wired correctly and has a good ground
    • Avoid using long extension cords as a voltage drop may occur, affecting the maximum output of the
    PSC-550
    • Ensure the cable lug set screws are properly tightened; failure to secure the cables to the PSC-550 will
    cause a lower maximum output
    • The voltage target with the PSC-550 connected and the 'Key On / Engine Off' should be 13.0 - 13.5 volts,
    even though IDS only inhibits module programming when voltage falls below 12.5 volts. The PSC-550 is
    designed to supply a constant 13.4 Volts at a maximum rate of 55 Amps. For this reason it is important to
    switch off all electrical consumers on the vehicle during module programming including headlamps, sidelights,
    fog lamps, radio, HVAC blower fans, wipers, and defrosters. These additional electrical loads may draw a
    higher amperage rate than the PSC-550 is designed to deliver, which will cause the voltage to DROP during
    IDS use.
    • Also, because the vehicle alternator charging rates / amperages are variable and would be subject to issues
    similar to using a 'smart' battery charger outlined above, flash programming modules with the vehicle running
    is NOT an approved alternative to using the PSC-550.
    IMPORTANT NOTE: PSC-550 CONNECTION PROCEDURE
    Connect the cable clamps to the battery BEFORE connecting the Power Supply unit to a 120-volt, 3-wire,
    grounded AC power source.
    The PSC-550 Power Supply is designed with high quality components to help ensure years of continuous use.
    Multiple electronic features protect the unit for a long, trouble-free life:
    •Fully automatic, regulated DC output: prevents overcharging of battery while maintaining optimum battery
    voltage downloads and fault tracing
    •Reverse Battery Polarity Protection for added safety
    •Brownout Input Protection
    •Over-Current Protection: cycle-peak limiting and rated-current limiting to maximize the life of the converter
    •Over-Temperature Protection
    •Proportional fan control circuit: enables the fan to turn on and off very slowly, minimizing electrical noise and
    voltage surges
    •Specially designed storage / carrying case: protects the unit during storage, protects the vehicle during
    charging.
    •Standard 6' leads; optional 12' leads (part number: 165-A114) available from one of the following sources:
    o Jaguar Land Rover Technician Tool Program: 800-327-1803
    o Rotunda: 800-ROTUNDA (800-768-8632)
    o SPX: 800-345-3399
    In addition to the above, the PSC-550S Power Supply has the following features:
    •Circuit breaker protection vs. fuse protection
    •Advanced switch mode design
