Signals; Pin-Description Table - Advanced Energy Pinnacle User Manual

If you have a Pinnacle Active Remote Panel and you want to operate the Pinnacle
supply from the User port, you must set the control mode for USER on the control
panel.

Signals

The User port is primarily an "analog" interface. Signal descriptions appear in the
following table. Note that a ".A" suffix appended to a pin name indicates an analog
signal; a ".D" suffix appended to a pin name indicates a digital signal. An overline on
a signal name (for example, OUTPUT ENABLE.D) indicates that the signal is true
when low.
.
Power down the Pinnacle unit and take proper ESD precautions before
removing the unit's top cover to position jumpers. Failing to power down
the unit in this case could result in death or severe personal injury.
Failing to take proper ESD precautions in this case could result in
damage to the unit.

Pin-description Table

The User port has priority for selecting targets, even when the unit is in local or host
control. Thus to select targets from the active front panel, the Pinnacle Active Remote
Panel, or a host computer connected to the host port, you must set the target to 1 at the
User port. Leaving the target bits open or leaving the User port pins unconnected
causes the target selection at the User port to default to 1.

Signal Description
Type
Input This pin is the collector side
of the opto-couplers for
status LEDs
Output This pin provides a fully
buffered 0 to 10 V signal
representing output voltage:
10 V = 1000 VDC. When the
open circuit output voltage is
1500 VDC, the voltage on
pin 2 is 12 VDC. It will sink
and source to 10 mA; its
impedance is 100 Ω
