A number of interfaces have been designed for use with the PM100 and PM300 power analyzers:
IEEE488.2 Interface.
Full implementation of the IEEE488.2 bus communication standard using the latest National Instruments
compatible circuits. Allows full control of the analyzer remotely. IEEE address may be any number from 2 to
30.
Centronics (parallel) and RS232 (serial) Interface.
The parallel connector (a 25 way D-type) connects to most printers with a Centronics type interface - matrix, jet
and laser. User selected text is printed when the [
↵
] key is pressed.
The RS232 connector (a 9 way D-type) may be used to connect to a serial printer, or to allow full remote control
for the analyzer using the IEEE488.2 command set. The baud rate (1200 to 19200) is selected from the front
panel.
Chart Recorder and Alarm Contacts Interface.
12 measurements may be output onto a 15-way D-type for connection to a chart recorder or data logger. Each
measurement is scaled for MAX and MIN level from the front panel.
2 isolated alarm relay contacts are also provided (rated 50V @1A) for plant control. The relays may be
programmed (via the front panel) to operate when any measurement exceeds a preset MAX or MIN level. Extra
integration features are provided for load shedding and peak demand applications.
Voltech can also supply a range of current transformers:
CT1000
Precision AC 0.2% dual ratio current transformer. 100A:1A and 1000A:1A.
CL1000
AC clamp-on current transformer. 1000A:1A
CL100
AC clamp-on current transformer. 100A:1A
