The mains voltage is applied to the Ecotec E3000 via the detachable mains cable
which is supplied with the Ecotec E3000. A main power socket is available for this
purpose at the rear of the Ecotec E3000.
1.6.4 RS232 Interface
The Ecotec E3000 is equipped with a RS232 interface which is located on the rear
right side of the main unit. This interface is of the DCE type (Data Communications
Equipment) and allows the connection of a PC for monitoring and data logging. The
connection is provided through a commercially available Sub-D plug. For further
information see “Interface Description Ecotec E3000” (kins22e1).

Through this connection some functions of the Ecotec E3000 can be controlled
externally or measurement data or the Ecotec E3000 status may be communicated
to external equipment.
Through relay changeover contacts the trigger levels as well as the operating mode
(Ready) of the Ecotec E3000 may be monitored.
