SECTION 6.0
REMOTE INTERFACE FOR MEDIUM POWER AMPLIFIERS
6.1
6.2
INTRODUCTION
The EMC Shop
Amplifiers can be operated remotely from a computer having RS-232 or
ETHERNET interfaces. These interfaces will allow the amplifier to be remotely
controlled by sending commands to the amplifier. Additionally, the amplifier status and
forward and reverse power readings may be read over the remote.
RS-232 INTERFACE
RS-232 is a standard which defines the communication between DTE, data terminal equipment to
DCE, data communication equipment. The
EMC Shop
Amplifiers have a RS-232, serial
interface. All amplifier functions can be controlled by coded messages sent over the interface
bus via the 9-pin D-type socket connector on the rear panel of the unit.
1.3.1 RS-232 Wiring
Connect the serial port of the amplifier to a computer using a null modem cable or a standard
serial cable with a null modem adapter.
