HANDLER interface structure 

Description: 

1. +24VD: +24Vdc power supply inside the instrument, COM1 at the low end. The 

output current is 

200mA

. When the POWER JMP is short-circuited, it provides a pull-up power supply for the output 

optocoupler, and an external LED can also be used for indication. 

2.

 

EXTV1: The external input port controls the power supply, and the low end is COM1. This pin can 

be connected to +24VD or an external 8-24V power supply. The internal current of the instrument is 
<50mA. 

When this power supply is not connected

, the output optocoupler is only the 

polar switch 

signal (C/E  pole  current direction) 

on the  secondary  side of  the  optocoupler. 

The  input  signal of 

the interface is invalid. 
3.

 

E5V: Instrument input optocoupler power supply, generated by EXTV1 regulation. Used to give the 

input signal optocoupler power supply, the input signal is invalid when there is no such power supply. 

4.

 

INTLOCK: is the instrument online lock. 

The instrument cannot start the high voltage  output 

when disconnected here. 
5.

 

The START and STOP signals form a remote input control. 

Valid for shorting on COM1 

6.

 

The TEST, PASS, FAIL, and DANGER signals form a remote output control, and the optocoupler 

pulls up the output signal. The specific effective  state can be customized by the user, 

the default is 

active low, and the optocoupler secondary side is turned on. 

 

The instrument is equipped with ST9010-IL at the factory. The connection method is short-circuited 

with  the  thick  lead  (POWER  JMP)  and  (INTLOCK  JMP)  as  shown  above,  and  the  other  is  left 

floating. 

4.6.2

 

HANDLER Control Interface Main Signal Timing Description 

Control interfaces are typically used for remote control and test synchronization or indication. The 

external connections of the interface are as follows:
