THREE CONTROL PANEL OPTIONS
FOR VARIOUS APPLICATIONS
PQ SERIES III models utilizing the A Version front panel,
PQA, provide stepless analog control from front panel po-
tentiometers. With simple configuration changes, voltage,
current, over voltage trip, and over current trip may be pro-
grammed from the rear connector or by RS232 communica-
tions. RS232 communications is embedded in the control
circuitry allowing full computer control with SCPI com-
mands. An optional IEEE-488 to RS232 converter, Ethernet
to RS232 converter, and other communications converters
are available to echo commands over the communications
bus. PQA SERIES power supplies are well suited for indus-
trial applications requiring a minimum of control.
ANALOG CONTROL
A SERIES
PQD SERIES models have one-hundred memory states
available to program voltage, current, over voltage trip,
over current trip, and time period. Set points can be auto
sequenced with time or external triggering. Special pro-
gramming codes allow repeating to create a power function
generator. The first 10 memory states are displayed on the
front panel to simplify programming tasks.
PQD SERIES power supplies offer an analog input
to modulate the voltage or current setting. This feature
enables the voltage or current setting to be adjusted by a
sensor input, such as a thermistor, or by monitoring its own
voltage or current. Modulation allows the output to be
tailored for advanced process control applications, battery
charging, and source emulation.
DIGITAL CONTROL
D SERIES
COMPUTER CONTROL
C SERIES
PQ SERIES III models utilizing the C Version front panel,
PQC, only allow control from the rear connector or by RS232
communications. These models are intended for process
control applications where front panel controls and displays
are not required or desired.
