Universal interface
ET System electronic GmbH 15
Allowed parameters for USB interface:
PCx,<baud>,<parity>,<data bits>,<stop bits>,<handshake>,<echo>
1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 14400, 19200, 38400, 57600, 62500, 115200
Note: The USB interface of the PC is controlled like a virtual COM port and therefore the parameters correspond to those of the RS232
interface.
Allowed parameters for RS485 interface:
PCx,<baud>,<parity>,<data bits>,<stop bits>,<timeout>
1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 14400, 19200, 38400, 57600, 62500, 115200
If the interface parameters must be changed permanently, the data has to be saved after the PCx command with the
command <SS>. No return value.
Example:
Query of first interface parameters
Unit answers: PC1 is a RS232 interface, 9600 bauds, 8 data bits, 2 stop bits, no handshake, no
parity, echo on.
Adjust baud rate to 115200 baud.
The new baud rate is active immediately after the command has been sent!
Query of second interface parameters
Unit answers: PC2 is a RS485 interface, 9600 bauds, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit.
Timeout when switching between receiving and sending is 1 ms.
Increase timeout to 50ms.
Query of third interface parameters
Unit answers: Interface 3 is not available in this unit.
RI or *RST - Reset Instrument
The unit executes a hardware reset. No return value.
SB[,{S|R|1|0}] - Standby
This command enables/disables the output. Entering the command without parameters displays the present standby
status. The commands SB,S and SB,1 switch the unit to standby mode, the output is disabled. The commands SB,R
and SB,0 disable the standby mode, the output is enabled.
Example:
Over voltage protection 200 V
Unit answers: output is active
