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.
b) Digital interface cards
Pluggable and retrofittable, digital interface cards for USB,
RS232, CAN, GPIB/IEEE (SCPI), Ethernet/LAN (SCPI) or
Profibus are available.
Following options are available:
a) High Speed Ramping
Increased dynamics of the output voltage by reduced output
capacity. It must be pointed out, that other output related values
also increase!
Note: this is a permanent modification which is not switchable.
b) Internal, active load with car ignition sequence
This internal module, also called two-quadrants module, offers
continuous power up to 150W and pulse peak power of approx.
2400W. The main purpose is to discharge the device's output
capacities faster than usual and thus to increase the dynamic
behaviour of the output voltage, without worsen other output
values. A second feature is the built-in car ignition sequence
emulation which can be triggered by a button or remote signal.
This is primarily used in the automotive industry. The module
can be deactivated by a switch.
12.2 Firmware update
A firmware update of the device should only be done if the
device shows erroneous behaviour or if new features have
been implemented.
In order to update a device, it requires a certain digital inter-
face card, a new firmware file and a Windows software called
„Update tool".
These interfaces are qualified to be used for a firmware update:
• IF-U1 (USB)
• IF-R1 (RS232)
• IF-E1 (Ethernet/USB)
• IF-PB1 (Profibus/USB)
In case none of the above interface types is at hand, the device
can not be updated. Please contact your dealer for a solution.
The update tool and the particular firmware file for your device
are obtainable from the website of the device manufacturer, or
are mailed upod request. The update too will guide the user
through the semi-automatic update process.
