1. GENERAL INFORMATION
1.1 Introduction
The Local Area Network (LAN) option for the HFE series power supply allows the user to
remotely program, measure and check status of the power supplies.
The LAN option is designed to communicate with single or multiple supplies in a rack
or with multiple racks housing HFE power supplies.
The LAN option is also designed to communicate with multiple racks, each rack holding
either HFE1600/S or HFE2500/S power supplies with PMBUS option.
The user can install and remove the HFE LAN module with no disruption to the operation
of the HFE power supplies.
A computer’s web page browser can be used to operate the module through a built-in
web page server. For applications including factory and test automation, communication
may be done using several standard network protocols and instrument commands.
