3.5 Remote control
3.5.1 General
Remote control is possible throough the built-in analog or USB port or using one of the optional interface modules
(AnyBus CompactCom, only with standard models of PSI 9000 2U series) or via the GPIB port (only with option
3W installed). Important here is that only the analog or one digital interface can be in control. For example, if an
attempt were to be made to switch to remote control through the digital interface while the analog remote control
is active (Pin Remote = LOW), the device would report an error through the digital interface. In the opposite direc-
tion, a switch-over using Pin Remote would be ignored. In both cases, however, status monitoring and reading of
values are always possible.
3.5.2 Control locations
Control locations are those locations from where the device is controlled. There are two: at the device (manual
operation) and outside (remote control). The following locations are defined:
Displayed location Description
- If neither of the other locations is displayed then manual control is active and access
from the analog and digital interfaces is allowed. This location is not explicitly displayed
Remote Remote control via any interface is active
Local Remote control is locked, only manual operation is allowed.
Remote control may be allowed or inhibited using the setting “Allow remote control” (see “3.4.3.1. Menu “General
Settings” ). In inhibited condition the status
“Local”
will be displayed top right. Activating the lock can be useful if
the device is remotely controlled by software or some electronic device, but it is required to make adjustments at
the device or deal with emergency, which would not be possible remotely.
Activating condition “Local” causes the following:
• If remote control through the digital interface is active (“ Remote ”). then remote control is immediately terminated
and must be reactivated at the PC once “
Local
” is no longer active.
• If remote control through the analog interface is active (“
Remote
”) then remote operation is only interrupted until
remote control is allowed again, because pin “Remote” continues to signal “remote control = on”. Exception: if
the level of pin “Remote” is changed to HIGH during the “ Local ” phase.
