PM101x
3.2.2 PM101
PM101 Special Features
The PM101 features a number of additional options, due to the DA-15 output connector.
The PM101 is per default configured to RS232 configuration (+/- 5 V voltage level). This can be
changed to a UART configuration (0/5 V voltage level) so that the PM101 can be accessed by
external micro-controllers for instrument control and data export. The PM101 can also be adjus-
ted to accommodate micro-controllers using 3.3 V.
1. DA-15 Interface
2. Two Auxiliary I/O ports
3. NTC input
4. Two Analog Output Ports
5. Real Analog Output
6. Autonomous Operation to Analog Output
7. Optional Use of 5 V - 36 V Power Supply
8. RS232 Operation
9. Adjustable Baud Rate via USB or Serial Communication (SCPI commands); The default
BAUD Rate is 115200 Bit/s.
10.UART Operation (i.e. for Control via an External Micro-Controller)
11. Instrument Control using SCPI commands (Serial Communication)
12.Power Meter Control and Output via USB
