I have this powersupply:
**broken link removed**
Its a sweet powersupply and would make a nice addition to the lab. I have 5 modules in it:
120V @ 1.25A
60V @ 2.5A
20V @ 7.5A x2
8V @ 16A
The only downside is the only user interface is GPIB (There is a special keyboard that plugs in but I dont have it). I have a GPIB card that I can install in my PC, but I'd like to build a stand-alone controller for it so I don't need to have my pc powered up.
I have the programer's Guide for the supply and I know which commands I need to send. I don't know how to address each module though. I know the address of each module, (Its the primary address set by the dipswitches on the back + the slot offset.) I just dont know how that fits into the GPIB communication. I've attached the programmer's guide if that helps.
I'm also considering using a RS232 <> GPIB converter, but I haven't been able to find one that looks decent. Anyone have experience with one in particular?
