This is a small power supply (±200V, ±6mA) used to drive a piezoelectric strain cell. It has a USB interface which connects to an AnywhereUSB USB<->Ethernet adapter on the beamline, or a local PC for testing/setup.
WISH are the primary users of this device and previously have had to borrow one from SE Electronics Group, but now have their own unit.
The PSU has a short list of remote commands as it's a very simple device to control. The IOC implements most of these:
- ID String
- Read & write voltage
- Read & write voltage slew rate (ramp rate)
- Read & write output (On / Off state)
It is also possible to read the voltage and current present at the front panel, but this was not required for the initial creation of the IOC.
