10. Remote Control of Output Voltage
The shut-down input can also be used to remotely adjust the output voltage between typically 28Vdc and 54Vdc. All
other functions of shut-down input remain the same.
The control voltage is referenced to the main ground (negative output voltage).

Instructions:
1. Set the unit into “Single Use” mode.
2. Set the output voltage adjustment (48-54V) to the maximum desired voltage.
3. Apply a control voltage to reduce the output voltage.
11. Internal Data Logging
A protected microcontroller inside the power supply acquires and stores operating data during the life of the unit. The
data can be downloaded with a small tool and a special software by Rockwell Automation service and repair personnel,
even when the unit is failing. The data allows for better troubleshooting. Events occuring just before a failure can be
analyzed much more accurately.
The data will be acquired with a fixed sampling rate unless the peak detectors trigger due to an abnormal
condition. In such cases, the abnormal condition will be captured.
Acquired data:
- Family name of unit (1606-XLS), revision of firmware
- Operational hours and expired portion of lifetime
- Operational data; latest 60 values with timestamps of the last 158 minutes of:
