THEORYOFOPERATIONMODELMBC8BATTERYCHARGER(continued)CRANKDISCONNECT- The crank disconnect relay is supplied by the 'DK' terminals. This reed relay shunts the SCRpulse transformer input when operated which prevents SCR turn on.SHUTDOWN- The shutdown sense line (SD) is connected to the internal SCR trigger drive signal on the regulator boardthrough a diode.
