Section 2. Installation and Configuration
Introduction
To use this product, you must have the following equipment:
•
a compatible model of DC output power supply
•
serial extender cable (straight through)
•
computer with an RS-232 interface (serial port)
•
computer-based communications software package
The RS-232 interface is usually installed at the factory.
Your local distributor or
service center can also install the interface, especially for use in a
previously-purchased supply already on site.
The RS-232 interface card will be
calibrated and configured with default settings. You will need to configure the supply
for your system using the “Basic Setup Procedure” on page 19. Refer also to
Figure 2.1, on page 16, Figure 2.2, on page 16 and Figure 2.3, on page 17 for
drawings of the front panel, the interface subplate, and the RS-232 interface printed
circuit board (PCB).
Initial Inspection
On first receiving your unit, perform a quick physical check.
•
Ensure each package contains a power supply with its RS-232 interface board
installed, and manuals for the power supply and the RS-232 interface.
Any
additional parts shipped with the power supply will be identified in the supply's
documentation.
•
Inspect the unit for any signs of physical damage such as scratches, cracks, or
broken switches, connectors, or displays.
•
Check the printed circuit board and components if you suspect internal damage.
If the unit is damaged, save all packing materials and notify the carrier immediately.
For additional information, please see the section titled, “Returning Power Supplies
