Pinnacle™ Plus+ 10 kW
STANDARD SERIAL (FLASH) PORT
Your Pinnacle Plus+ supply contains a modified AE Bus serial (Host)
communications interface accessible through the Standard Serial port. This allows the
Pinnacle Plus+ unit to interface with a host computer. You can do everything from the
host computer interfaced with the Pinnacle Plus+ supply that you can do from the
active front panel or the Pinnacle Remote Panel. For a complete list of available
functions, refer to the list of commands later in this chapter.
Note: To obtain a diskette containing sample software as well as an executable version
of the AE Bus Host software, please call AE Customer Support.
Note: The flash port is not available for serial communications on Pinnacle Plus+
supplies with AE Bus cards installed.
Standard Serial Port Description
The Standard Serial port, or flash port, lets AE personnel program the internal flash
function of the Pinnacle Plus+ unit. If the unit does not have an AE Bus card installed,
the flash port also lets you use a type of AE Bus protocol to communicate with the
Pinnacle Plus+ supply. (see “Transmission Parameters” on page 4-46).
Located on the rear panel, the Standard Serial port is a shielded modular jack
illustrated on page 4-45. (See also the rear panel illustration at the end of the
“Installation” chapter.)
