Operating the device 11.1.3 Mixed connections Mixed connections are parallel and series connections within one system. It is possible to do so, but we advise as follows: First do the parallel connections, for example 3 units with 65V and 10A each. Then do the series connection (same three units again) in order to gain, for example, a 130V and 30A system.
Operating the device 12. Miscellaneous 12.1 Accessories and options Note: Details about options and accessories are avaible in seperate user instruction manuals. Following accessories are optionally available: a) USB-to-Analogue interface UTA12 Galvanically isolated remote control via USB (on PC side) and the device internal analogue interface.
