PSI 9000 15U/24U Series
Setting
Description
USB decimal point format
Switches the decimal point format of values and also the CSV decimal point and
column separator for USB logging (also see
), as well as for other
features where a CSV file can be loaded
US
= Comma separator (US standard for CSV files)
Default
= Semicolon separator (german/european standard for CSV files)
USB logging with units
(V,A,W)
CSV files generated from USB logging by default add physical units to values. This
can be deactivated by setting this option to “
No
”
Calibrate device
Touch area “
Start
” starts a calibration routine (see
), but only if
the device is in U/I or U/P mode.
Reset device to defaults
Touch area “
Start
” will initiate a reset of all settings (HMI, profile etc.) to factory
default, as shown in the menu structure diagrams on the previous pages
Restart device
Will initiate a warm start of the device
Master-slave mode
Selecting “
OFF
” disables the master-slave mode (MS) in which the cabinet is run
-
ning by default. Since the MS mode is essential for this type of power supply device,
this setting should never be altered.
Repeat master init.
Touch area “
Initialise
” will repeat the initialisation of the master-slave system in case
the automatic enumeration of the slave units by the master is once unsuccessful
so the system would have less total power than expected or has to be repeated
manually in case the master unit couldn’t detect a missing slave

3.4.3.4
Menu “Overview”
This menu page displays an overview of the set values (U, I, P or U, I, P, R) and alarm settings as well as settings
limits. These can only be displayed, not changed.
3.4.3.5
Menu “About HW, SW...”
This menu page displays an overview of device relevant data such as serial number, article number etc., as well as
an alarm history which lists the number of device alarms that probably occurred since the device has been powered.
3.4.3.6
Menu “Function Generator”
See
„3.10 The function generator“ on page 60
.
3.4.3.7
Menu “Communication”
This submenu offers settings for digital communication via the optional or built-in interface. The touch area for the
installed interface module opens one or more settings pages, depending on the interface type. There are further
-
more adjustable communication timeout settings, of which the one for USB can make it possible to successfully
transfer fragmented messages using higher values. In the screen for “Com Protocols” it is possible to enable both
or disable one of the two supported communication protocols, ModBus and SCPI. This can help to avoid mixing
both protocols and to receive unreadable messages, for example when expecting a SCPI response and getting a
ModBus response instead.
For all Ethernet interfaces with two ports: „P1“ is related to port 1 and „P2“ to port 2, like printed
on the module face. Two-port interfaces will use one IP only.
