Remote bus interfaces and rack mounting systems for laboratory power supplies
Bus programmable models
As well as the large range of manually controlled power supplies, TTi also offers many bus programmable units incorporating varying combination of RS-232, GPIB, USB and LAN interfaces.LabVIEW or LabWindows drivers are available for most power supplies.
Generalized IVI drivers are available for most models.
Note that these remote control models are equally suited to use on the bench, and in some cases have additional features which will be particularly useful to bench users.
Rack mounting
Many TTi PSU series, both bus programmable and manual, have a rack-modular casing size.Rack mounts are available for the PL, QL, TSX, CPX, QPX and New PL series.
LXI - LAN eXtensions for Instrumentation
LXI is the LAN-based successor to GPIB, combining the advantages of Ethernet with the simplicity and familiarity of GPIB. LXI will be increasingly offered on TTi power supplies and other TTi test and measurement instruments over the coming years.The LXI Standard has already been adopted by many of the best known test and measurement companies as the natural successor to GPIB, and others are currently in the process of adopting it.
