Advanced Energy
The rectified dc power is then passed through a measurement section to the output connector.
OUTPUT MEASUREMENT
The output measurement section measures current, voltage, and power. These signals are
typically scaled 0 to 10 Vdc and sent to logic control and interfaces.
LOGIC CONTROL
The microprocessor in the logic control section uses operator-supplied parameters and
setpoints to control the output. This section is also responsible for controlling the input section
and providing status information to the operator through all interfaces.
REMOTE INTERFACES
The Pinnacle supply supports four types of interfaces: a User port (analog/digital), a serial
(Host) port (RS-232/422/485), an active front panel, and a Pinnacle Remote Panel. All four
interfaces communicate operator-supplied inputs to the logic control section and provide the
operator with status information.
