Section 4. Remote Operation
Introduction
The rear panel switches and connector on the power supply allow you to program the
supply with an analog device or to output readback signals. This section covers the
following topics:
• See “Remote Analog Programming of Output Voltage and Current Limit” on
page 74 for information about remote analog programming of output voltage and
current limit with 0-5 V and 0-10 V voltage sources and 0-5 k and 0-10 k
resistances.
• See “Remote Monitoring of Output Voltage and Current” on page 78 for the
connector and switch settings when using calibrated readback signals for output
voltage and output current with selectable 0-5 V or 0-10 V scales.
Isolated Programming The four-channel Isolated (ISOL) Programming
Interface is an internal card which is ordered as an option. It allows remote
programming and readback of the power supply’s output voltage and current limit
with 0-5V analog signals at a different potential relative to the power supply’s
output. Contact the manufacturer to order.
Remote Digital Programming You can operate the power supply from a
computer if you have had the GPIB or RS-232 Interface card installed as an option.
Refer to the separate interface manual for all setup and operation instructions for
remote digital programming.
