Remote Monitoring

The PSU power supplies have remote monitoring support for
current and voltage output. They also support monitoring of
operation and alarm status.

External Voltage and Current Monitoring

Background

The analog connector is used to monitor the
current (IMON) or voltage (VMON) output.

An output of 0~10V or 0~5V (depending on the
configuration) represents the voltage or current
output of 0~ rated current/voltage output.

IMON = (current output/full scale) × 10 or
5.

VMON = (voltage output/full scale) × 10 or
5.

Configuration

The PSU doesn’t need to be configured to use
external voltage or current monitoring,
however the voltage or current output range
does need to be configured. The monitor output
voltage can be configured as either 0~10V or
0~5V.
