9. PC INTERFACE CONTROL USER MANUAL
9.1 Introduction
We integrate the micro-controller technology and our proprietary software with switching mode power technology to make this unit user friendly, time saving
and reliable power supply.
In PC interface mode:
1. With our proprietary software one PC can perform remote access/control and output data logging for one programmable power supply with RS-232 or up to
31 programmable power supplies using RS-485 interface.
2. Outputs for dynamic loading like power surges can be recorded stored (also as XLS file) and displayed on the PC.
3. The PC can input, stored, retrieved, and transferred for all the data entries for the Timed Programs and the Memory Presets to the power supply. This
eliminates the tedious process of keying in data for different groups of Timed Programs and Memory Presets to the programmable power supply.
4. Using the data logging function, the actual output voltage, amperes, watts, and time periods are recorded in the PC for later analysis. Adjusting the scales of
voltage, current, power and time parameters can high light further graphical analysis.
