Remote Control

Description

The PSB-2000 series power supplies can be
controlled from a PC or sequencer when one of the
optional interface boards are installed. Two types
of interface boards are available: PSB-001 (GPIB)
and PSB-002 (RS-232C and USB). A maximum of
ten units to be connected together with the local
bus connection, with one unit as a master unit. The
master unit is then connected to a PC through
GPIB, RS-232C or USB. Any connected units may
be controlled as slave units.

NOTE

In this chapter, the terms ―master unit‖ and ―slave
unit‖ are the same terms as used in the Power
Extension section (page 90), however, in this
chapter they have different meanings. Please, do
not confuse them.

It is impossible to install one of the optional
interface boards in the PSB-2800LS.

NOTE

The interface boards are factory installed options.
If you need to install or remove the interface
boards, please refer to the instruction manual
supplied with the interface boards. For safety,
make sure the power is off before installing the
interface board.
