• Remote control is not active
In this mode of operation pin “REM-SB” can serve as lock, preventing the DC output from being switched on by
any means. This results in following possible situations:

is off

DC output not locked. It can be switched on by pushbutton “On/Off”
(front panel) or via command from digital interface.

DC output locked. It can’t be switched on by pushbutton “On/Off”
(front panel) or via command from digital interface. When trying to
switch on, a popup in the display resp. an error message will be
generated.
LOW

normal
In case the DC output is already switched on, toggling the pin will switch the DC output off, similar to what it does
in analog remote control:

DC output will be switched off and locked. Later it can be switched
on again by toggling the pin. During lock, pushbutton or digital com-
mand can delete the request to switch on by pin.

b) Remote control of current and power
Requires remote control to be activated (Pin “Remote”
= LOW)
The set values PSEL and CSEL are generated from,
for example, the reference voltage VREF, using po-
tentiometers for each. Hence the power supply can
selectively work in current limiting or power limiting
mode. According to the specification of max. 5 mA
for the VREF output, potentiometers of at least 10
kΩ must be used.
The voltage set value VSEL is directly connected to
VREF and will thus be permanently 100%.
If the control voltage is fed in from an external source
it is necessary to consider the input voltage ranges
for set values (0...5 V oder 0...10 V).

Example with
potentiometers
Use of the input voltage range 0...5 V for 0...100% set value halves the effective resolution.
c) Reading actual values
The AI provides the DC output values as current and voltage monitor. These can be
read using a standard multimeter or similar.
