T3PS Series User Manual IMON T3PS Connection Analog connector I MON → Output Terminal Pin16 → Neg (-) Pin11 → Pos (+) The output impedance of the voltage (VMON) and Note current (IMON) monitor pins is 1kΩ. Maximum current is 10mA. The monitor outputs are strictly DC and should not be used to monitor analog components such as transient voltage response or ripple etc.
ANALOG CONTROL External Operation and Status Monitoring The MIL 26 pin connector can also be used to Background monitor the status operation and alarm status of the instrument. The pins are isolated from the power supply internal circuitry by photo couplers. Status Com (Pin 17) is a photo coupler emitter output, whilst pins 18~22 are photo coupler collector outputs.
