Ethernet interface

The PSC-ETH-2 (Generation 2) serves as an interface between a TCP/IP network and a Power Supply, enabling operators to establish fully automated systems. The ETH module is available either as a factory order built-in option or external module.

With the PSC-ETH-2, users can effortlessly configure and monitor power supply parameters, retrieve status information, implement controls, interface with digital I/O, and generate waveforms stored in memory. Which is all accessible through a web-interface. Moreover, it offers the capability to assume tasks typically handled by a Programmable Logic Controller (PLC), thereby enhancing the effectiveness and simplifying the complexity of processes and test systems. See the data sheet for more information.

The external interface can be mounted in a 19"-rack front. For more information, see the data sheet or the 19"-rack adapter page.
