About the interface cards
11. Notes about particular device series
11.1 Series EL 3000 / EL 9000
The electronic loads of the series EL3000 and EL9000 sup-
port the following interface cards (date 08 /2012):
IF-U1, IF-R1, IF-C1, IF-G1* and IF-E1**
Note about the GPIB card IF-G1: at devices with firmware
version 2.10 or older the card is detected as IF-C1 (CAN
card) and must be configured to following settings:
- CAN Baudrate: 100kBd
- Bus termination: no
- Relocatable ID: 0
Also, in devices with firmware older than 3.01, the card is
detected but not correctly supported. We recommend an
update. Please contact your dealer.
From firmware version 3.01 there are no limitations.
You can configure the interface cards in the setup menu of
the devices. This is activated by turning the switch Level
Control to position Setup.
Depending on which card is equipped, a different selection
of parameters is available. The parameters and their values
are identical to the ones explained in section 4 to 8, with the
exception that no Sample point can be set at CAN.
There are also no settable parameters for the USB and
IEEE card.
