External monitoring of the output current (I MON)
This can only be monitored from the master unit.
•
Status monitors
You can monitor the status of the following items from the master unit and from the slave
unit: constant-voltage mode (CV STATUS), constant-current mode (CC STATUS), output
on, POWER switch on, and alarms.
Remote sensing
To perform remote sensing, connect the PWX series in series, and then connect the sensing
cables to them as shown in the following figure.
Alarm
All the alarms that are detected on a single unit are also detected during series operation.
You can use the CONFIG settings to specify what happens when the output is turned off
because an alarm is detected. You can select to turn the output on automatically when the
problem that caused the alarm is fixed (CF03: Auto) or to leave the output turned off when the
problem is fixed (CF03: SAFE).
Clearing alarms
To clear alarms, (1) press ALM CLR (SHIFT+SET); (2) set pin 5 of the J1 connector to LOW
(0 V to 0.5 V) or shorted; or (3) turn off unit 1 and unit 2, fix the problem that caused the
alarm, and then turn on unit 1 and unit 2.

CAUTION
• If the sensing cables are not connected properly, the load may be exposed to excessive
voltage, and the PWX series may be damaged.
• When the load cables are distributed over longer distance, the phase shifting due to wiring
inductance and capacitance may go beyond the limit and result in oscillation. To prevent
such oscillation, connect an electrolytic capacitor with several hundreds to several tens of
thousands
μ
F across the load.
Use an electrolytic capacitor with a withstand voltage that is 120% or more of the total of
the rated output voltages of the PWX series that are connected in series
