  • Page 4: In General

    In General Features The PSC-ETH-2 is an interface between a TCP/IP network and a Power Supply. It allows the operator to create fully automated systems. The PSC-ETH-2 can set and measure the parameters of the power supply, read the status, set controls, interact with digital I/O and generate waveforms, stored in memory. It is even possible to take over tasks from a PLC.
  • Page 5: Digital I/O

    PSC-ETH-2 Digital I/O The SM800, SM1500, SM6000 and the external PSC-ETH-2 provide 8 user inputs and 8 outputs. These can be controlled / monitored by commands (refer to chapter 5) or can be used to interact with the Sequencer (refer to chapter 6) to make the power supply act like a power PLC.
  • Page 6: Installation

    PSC-ETH-2s connected to the network and allows to change it. It also shows the MAC address, the serial number and the identification string (*PUD) of every PSC-ETH-2. By clicking on (one of) the PSC-ETH-2(s), the user can set the IP address, the default gateway and the IP address mask.

    A bent paperclip can be used to press the internal micro push button. A soft sensible click can be noticed. Press and hold the button for at least 4 seconds in order to activate the default restoring mechanism. 11 / 38 DELTA ELEKTRONIKA B.V. Preliminary version Dec. 2019...
  • Page 12: Conventions

    Product Manual PSC-ETH-2 Conventions The PSC-ETH-2 has a command set, which includes commands compatible with the SCPI language (Standard Commands for Programmable Instruments). Syntax The command descriptions contain the syntax of the instructions and show the form in which these commands can be sent to the PSC-ETH-2.
  • Page 13: Command Description

    Command description General Instructions 6.1.1 *IDN? This command is used to read the identification string of the PSC-ETH-2. The string contains the name, the option number, the version of the firmware and the serial number of the PSC. Syntax: *IDN?<term>...
  • Page 14: Rcl

    Default settings are 5V / 5 A. These settings must be changed for correct operation. When the PSC-ETH-2 is built- in by Delta Elektronika B.V., these settings are already done.
  • Page 15: Measure Subsystem

    Calibrate Subsystem 6.4.1 Introduction To make the accuracy of the PSC-ETH-2 / power supply combination as high as possible, it is required to calibrate the PSC-ETH-2 first. There are eight parameters to calibrate. Four related to the voltage settings / measurements and four related to the current settings / measurements.
  • Page 16: Definitions

    To calibrate the programming offset of the voltage setting: Syntax:CAL<sp>3,<NR2><term> To read the calibration settings: Syntax:CAL<sp>3?<term> 6.4.3.5 Calibrate Gain Measure Current To calibrate the gain of the current measurement: Syntax:CAL<sp>4,<NR2><term> To read the calibration settings: Syntax:CAL<sp>4?<term> 16 / 38 DELTA ELEKTRONIKA B.V.

    / monitored by commands (explained below) or can be used to interact with the Sequencer (refer to chapter 7). 6.5.1 User Outputs To program the user outputs, a decimal number can be send to the PSC-ETH-2. This decimal number represents the binary state of the 8 user outputs. Syntax:UOUTput<sp><0+NR1><term>...
  • Page 19: Limits

    This method provides to switch CV or CC programming individually, so one of the two can be controlled via the PSC-ETH-2 and the other one via the pot-meter on the front panel. Any combination is possible. Hence there are two commands to set the programming source: To set the CV programming source: Syntax:SYSTem:REMote:CV[:STATus]<sp><setting><term>...
  • Page 20: Error Message

    Syntax : SYSTem:ERRor?<term> The PSC-ETH-2 returns the first error and clears it from the queue. If there are no errors (so the queue is empty), the result of this query will be : 0,None<term> So after 10 readings of SYSTem:ERRor? the queue is empty for sure, or after using the *CLS command.
  • Page 21: Terminator

    The terminator can be chosen for the communication. The terminator is however set to default on a power- on event (ASCII character 0AH, 10d) To set the Terminator: Syntax : SYSTem:COMmunicate:TERminator<sp> <value> <term> value = CR, CRLF or LF 21 / 38 DELTA ELEKTRONIKA B.V. Preliminary version Dec. 2019...
  • Page 22: Output

    Syntax : STATus:REGister:B?<term> The PSC-ETH-2 will return a decimal number which represents the binary status of the status signals. For example, if the power supply is in CC-mode and signals DC-Fail, the register A condition will be : 66<term>. ( = 2 + 64 ).
  • Page 23: Sequencer

    PSC-ETH-2 Sequencer Introduction The PSC-ETH-2 includes a subsystem called SEQUENCER. This system can contain max 25 free programmable sequences of 2000 steps each. Sequences are identified by name (max 16 characters, case insensitive). Sequences can be started and stopped by commands (see section 7.3) or by a user input (see section 7.4).

  • Page 26: Sequence Control By Commands

    To read which sequence is selected, send the query: Syntax: PROGram:SELected:NAMe?<term> The PSC-ETH-2 returns the name of the selected sequence, followed by a <term>. Or, in case of no selection, only <term>. Sequence names are not case-sensitive (during selection), but are stored in memory with upper case.

    Use the following command to delete all Labels: Syntax: PROGram:SELected:LABel<sp><*>,DELETE<term> 7.3.14 Building a Sequence Before a sequence can be started it has to be build. During a build the PSC-ETH-2 will, for example, check if all used Labels are defined properly. 27 / 38 DELTA ELEKTRONIKA B.V.
