RS-232 Troubleshooting: 
If there is RS-232 connection problem, check the following: 
Computer and power supply must configure the same baud rate, parity, data bits and flow 
control options. Note that the power configuration as a start bit and a stop bit (these values 
are fixed). 
As described before in RS-232 connector, you must use the correct interface cable or 
adapter. Note that even if the cable has the right plug, the internal wiring may be wrong. 
Interface cable must be connected to the correct serial port on the computer (COM1, COM2, 
etc.). 
Communication Settings 
Before communication, you should first make the following parameters of power supply and 
PC matches. 
Baud Rate: 9600 (4800,9600,19200,38400,57600,115200). You can enter the system menu 
from the front panel, and then set the baud rate. 
Data bits: 8 
Stop Bits: 1 
calibration (none, even, odd) 
EVEN     8 data bits, have even parity 
ODD      8 data bits have odd parity 
NONE          8 data bits, no parity   
Local Address: (0 ~ 31, the factory default setting is 0) 
Parity=None  Start Bit  8 Data Bits  Stop Bit 
 
 
6.2 USB interface   
Use a Cable with two USB port to connect the power and the computer. All power functions 
can be programmed via USB. 
The USB488 interface functions of the power supply described as below: 
interface is 488.2 USB488 interface.
