User's Manual

With the Power Controller Thyro-P, the following interfaces may be used for this (see also ﬁ g. 11 on

previous page):

• X10, RS 232

• X30, ﬁ bre optic receiver

• X31, ﬁ bre optic transmitter

as well as optional interfaces, for instance

• X20, bus interface, e.g. for Proﬁ bus DP

All internally processed data like current, voltage, power, set point value, limitations, etc. may be

enquired, processed and modiﬁ ed during operation (online operation) in master-slave process.

Under assistance of corresponding automation technology, it is possible to do without connection

of process controls, potentiometers, instruments, LBA, etc.

The existing interfaces may operated simultaneously, so that for instance the following system

conﬁ guration would be possible: a stored-program control via Proﬁ bus supplies the set points,

a PC visualizes (ﬁ bre optic interface/Thyro-Tool Familiy) the data and on location the device status

and selected operating values are displayed via LBA (using the RS 232).

Therefore, the Power Controller Thyro-P is transparent to all levels of production and the process

may therefore be securely handled.

5.1 RS 232 INTERFACE

The isolated RS 232 interface is provided for direct connection of an LBA (with cabinet installation

kit also indirect via cable) or a PC. Setting of parameters of the interface is performed using Thyro-

Tool Familiy or LBA. The default baud rate is set to 9600 baud, no parity, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit.

The following illustration shows connection of a Thyro-P to a PC using the RS 232 interface (also

possible via ﬁ bre optic or Proﬁ bus).

For connecting the PC, an RS 232 cable is required. On the Thyro-P side, a 9-pin sub-D plug and on

the PC side a 9-pin sub-D socket must be available.
