QUICK START GUIDE - USING MULTIPLE DC1000S WITH A LCR METER
PAGE 1 OF 3
104-174/1
The high output impedance of the DC1000 allows it to be used with almost any manufacturer’s LCR meter.
The unique topology also allows you to parallel up to 20 units so that up to 500A can be generated.
The following document explains how to setup your environment to use multiple DC1000s with an LCR meter.
In the following example we will connect 3 DC1000As together to provide 0-75Amps whilst measuring using an LCR Meter.
A) Connect RS232 + Interlocks.
RS232.
Use the
77-046
straight through 9w-9w M-F leads provided with the
unit.
Connect
RS232 OUT
from the first unit to the
RS232 IN
on the second
unit.
Connect
RS232 OUT
from the second unit to the
RS232 IN
on the
third unit.
The first unit will automatically become the “
Master
” unit and will
control the other units in the chain.
Safety Interlocks.
Insert your interlock system or interlock override plug into the
Interlock
IN
on the first unit.
Connect
Interlock OUT
on the first unit to
Interlock IN
on the second
unit.
Connect
Interlock OUT
on the second unit to
Interlock IN
on the third
unit.
