MODEL RANGE
PL155-P - 0 to 15V at 0 to 5A
PL303-P - 0 to 30V at 0 to 3A
PL601-P - 0 to 60V at 0 to 1.5A
PL303QMD-P - 2 x (0 to 30V at 0 to 3A)
Digital Bus Interfaces - RS-232, USB, LAN (LXI)
Full remote control and read-back using RS-232,
USB or LAN (LXI-C). All interfaces are at ground potential and opto-isolated
from the outputs.
Note: Remote/Local Sense, and Operational Mode
(PL303QMD-P) are manually selectable only.
RS-232
Standard 9-pin D connector. Baud rate 19,200
max.
USB
Standard USB hardware connection. Operates as a
virtual COM port.
Ethernet (LAN)
Standard 10/100 base-T hardware connection. ICMP
and TCP/IP Protocol for connection to Local Area Network or direct
connection to a single PC.
LXI Compliance
LAN interface is compliant with LXI-C. (LXI is
the abbreviation for Lan eXtensions for Instrumentation).
Digital Programming Performance
Voltage Setting
Setting Resolution: 1mV
Setting Accuracy: ± (0.05% +10mV)
Current Setting
Setting Resolution: 0.1mA (0.01mA on 500mA
range)
Setting Accuracy: ± (0.3% +0.005A) to 3A, ± (0.5% +0.005A) to 6A, ±
(0.3% +0.5mA) on 500mA range.
Programming Speed
Command Delay: Typically <80ms (this must be
added to any of the figures below)
Voltage Up Time: Typically <45ms* to 1%
Voltage Down Time: Typically <20ms* to 1% (full load); typically
<150ms* to 1% (no load)
* The up and down times vary with model, current
range and voltage step size. More information is contained in the
operating manual which can be downloaded from our web site.
Analog Remote Control (single output models
only)
Non-isolated analog voltage control of voltage
and current. Analog control outputs are also provided to enable easy
parallel connection of multiple units in a master-slave
configuration.
Note that the PL303QMD-P does not have analog remote control.
Scaling
Reference Point: All control voltage are
referenced to the positive output terminal
Set Voltage Input: 0V to 10V sets 0 to 100% of rated output (e.g. 0
to 30V for PL303-P).
Alternative scaling of 0V to 5V
(selectable using internal link).
Set Current Input: 0V to 10V sets 0 to 100% of rated output (e.g. 0
to 3A for PL303-P).
Alternative scaling of 0V to 5V
(selectable using internal link).
Voltage Output: 0 to 100% of rated output voltage generates 0V to
5V.
Current Output: 0 to 100% of rated output current generates 0V to
5V.
Accuracy
Set Voltage Input: ± (0.3% +10mV); Input
Impedance = 100kW
Set Current Input: ± (0.5% +0.005A); ± (0.5% +0.5mA) on 500mA range
Input Impedance = 64kOhm
Voltage Output: ± (0.3% +10mV); Output Impedance
= 125Ohm
Current Output: ± (0.5% +0.005A); ± (0.5% +0.5mA) on 500mA range;
Output Impedance = 125Ohm
Remote Analog On/Off Control (single output
models only)
Non-isolated terminal which sets the output to
Off when pulled low by gate signal or relay closure. Signal is
reference to the positive output terminal.
Note that the PL303QMD-P does not have this facility.
Rear Terminals
Power and sense connections are duplicated on
the rear panel using a screw-less connector block.
Digital Bus Interfaces - RS-232, USB, LAN (LXI)

above specifications are additional to the Manual Control
specifications which can be seen
Here.
