PSI 9000 15U/24U Series
1.9.7
USB port (rear side)
The USB port on the rear side of the topmost unit (master) is provided for communication
with the device and for firmware updates of the master. For the other units (slaves) in the
cabinet, firmware updates are applied via the particular USB port of the units.
The included USB cable can be used to connect the master unit to a PC (USB 2.0 or 3.0).
The driver is delivered with the device on USB stick and installs a virtual COM port. Details
for remote control can be found on the web site of the manufacturer or also on the included
USB stick.
The device can be addressed via this port either using the international standard ModBus
RTU protocol or by SCPI language. The device recognises the message protocol used
automatically.
If remote control is in operation the USB port has no priority over either the interface module
(see below) or the analog interface and can, therefore, only be used alternatively to these.
However, monitoring is always available.

Interface module slot
This slot on the rear side of the topmost unit (master) can be used to install a digital interface
module of the IF-AB interface series. The following options are available:

The modules are installed by the user and can be retrofitted anytime. A firmware update of the device may be
necessary in order to recognize and support certain modules. In this case it is sufficient to update the master unit.
If remote control is in operation the interface module has no priority over either the USB port or the analog interface
and can, therefore, only be used alternately to these. However, monitoring is always available.
Switch off device before adding or removing modules!
1.9.9
Analog interface
This 15 pole Sub-D socket on the rear side of the topmost unit (master) is provided for remote
control of the device via analog or digital signals.
If remote control is in operation this analog interface can only be used alternately to the
digital interface. However, monitoring is always available.
The input voltage range of the set values and the output voltage range of the monitor val-
ues, as well as reference voltage level can be switched in the settings menu of the device
between 0-5 V and 0-10 V, in each case for 0-100%.
