1.9.5.5 USB-Port (Front side)
The frontal USB port, located below the LED “Power”, is intended for the connection of standard USB sticks. This
can be used for data recording during all operation modes.
USB 2.0 sticks are accepted and must be FAT32 formatted and have a maximum capacity of 32GB. USB 3.0

of the USB drive in order to be found. This folder must be named HMI_FILES, such that a PC would recognise
the path G:\HMI_FILES if the drive were to be assigned the letter G.

1.9.6 USB port (back side)
The USB-B port on the back side of the device is standard
with this series and is provided for communication with the
device and forrmware updates. The includedUSB cable
can be used to connect the device to a PC (USB 2.0 or 3.0).
The driver is delivered on the included USB stick and installs
a virtual COM port. Details for remote control can be found on
the included USB stick or the web site of Elektro-Automatik.
The device can be addressed via this port either using the
international standard ModBus protocol or by SCPI language.
The device recognises the message protocol automatically.

If remote control is going to be activated, the USB interface has no priority over any other interface and can there-
fore only be used alternatively to them. However, monitoring is always available, no matter if and via what interface
the device is remotely controlled.
1.9.7 “Sense” connector (remote sensing)
In order to compensate for voltage drops along the DC cables to the load, the Sense input (between
the DC output terminals) can be connected to the load. The device will automatically detect when
the sense input is wired (Sense+) and compensate the output voltage accordingly.
