“Share BUS” connector
The two BNC sockets (50 Ω type) labeled “Share BUS” form a digital, passed-
through Share bus. This bus is bidirectional and connects the bus master unit
via “Share BUS Output” to the next slave unit (“Share BUS Input”) etc., for
use in parallel operation (master-slave). BNC cables of suitable length can be
obtained from us or electronics stores.
Share bus operation requires to connect only identical device models. Follow

“Sense” connector (remote sensing)
In order to compensate for voltage drops along the DC cables to the load or
external source, the Sense input (2 plugs included in delivery, one each for
positive and negative pole) can be connected to the load resp. external source.
The maximum possible compensation is given in the technical specifications.

Master-Slave bus
A further port is provided on the back side of the device, comprising two RJ45
sockets, which enables multiple identical devices to be connected via a digital
bus (RS485) to create a master-slave system. Connection is made using stan

dard CAT5 cables. These can theoretically have a length of up to 1200 m, but
it’s recommended to keep the connections as short as possible.
