15. USE OF THE RS-232 PORT

Through the RS232 port it is possibile to interface the amplifier with a PC.
It is possible to download from the website

www.linear-amplifier.com

the software that

permits interfacing the amplifier in a remote way, connecting the amplifier to a PC with
the supplied cable.

On the same website there is, for programmer use, a protocol specification that permits
creation of a proper software application.

Note:

SPE doesn't take any responsibility for these applications.
