DELTA ELEKTRONIKA BV PSC SERIES
1 Features
The PSC is an RS232 or IEEE488 interface, designed for an analog programmable power supply.
The PSC sets output voltage and current and reads the voltage, current and status. The PSC also
controls Remote/Local, Remote Shut Down etc. Up to 15 PSC’s can be connected to only one RS232
port or IEEE488 bus. The analog voltages can be calibrated by software. The calibration settings can be
saved in non volatile memory and recalled at power on.
2 Languages
The PSC allows three groups of commands:
• IEEE488.2 Common Commands
• SCPI (Standard Commands for Programmable Instruments)
• DPL (Delta Programming Languages) emulation mode of the PSC 44M
For communication with the PSC languages like Basic, Pascal, C, Visual Basic, Delphi, Testpoint or
LabView can be used. Some free software examples are available on www.DeltaPowerSupplies.com.
There is an external model for bench, rail or rack mounting and there are PSC card sets to use inside a
power supply.
