Fluke 1529 Chub-E4 - Manual (Page 26)

5.2 Back Panel
The back panel consists of the power switch, AC adapter connector, charging
indicator, IR port, RS-232 port connector, IEEE-488 port connector (optional),
serial label, and probe connectors. The 1529 thermometer readout can be con-
figured in three different ways. The configuration affects the probe connectors
on the back panel. The Model 1529 is configured with one PRT/thermistor in-
put module of two channels and one thermocouple input module of two chan-
nels. The Model 1529-R is configured with two PRT/thermistor input modules
of four channels. The Model 1529-T is configured with two thermocouple input
modules of four channels. Figure 3 shows the back panel and the three different
configurations.
Power Switch - The power switch turns the thermometer readout on and off.
AC Adapter Connecor - The AC adapter plugs into the DC power input to re-
charge the battery and to power the instrument while the battery is being
charged (see Section 6.3, Battery).
Charging Indicator - The charging indicator lights when the AC adapter is
connected. It glows green when the battery is at full charge and amber when the
battery is being charged.
IR Port-The infrared window provides a means for downloading the 1529
logged data. The infrared window can be used in any of the following ways.
• with an I/R dongle and the 9935 LogWare Software
• with a Hart Scientific 2385 printer
• with an IrDA compatible printer
RS-232 Port Connector - The DB-9 connector is for interfacing the thermom-
eter readout to a computer or terminal with serial RS-232 communications.
IEEE-488 Port (optional) - The GPIB connector is for interfacing the ther-
mometer readout to a computer or terminal with IEEE-488 communications.
Serial Label - The serial label shows the instrument model and serial number.
Probe Connectors - Probe(s) must be connected either to the patented
mini-DWF connectors (PRT/thermistor probes) or to the universal receptacle
(thermocouples) for operation.
