Time-specified logging, such as 600 seconds, is also available. Custom logger software is also available. | Multiple lists of set values can be compared and collated. | It prevents errors in note-taking and manual entry, and reduces management effort and costs. | Settings and confirmations can be made on the PC screen, preventing misoperation of the main unit's buttons. | Even multiple units can be easily configured by simply writing the configuration data. |

The PSA-4801 has a very small input resistance of approximately 40 mΩ (±10A/±5A/±2A types), enabling highly accurate measurements.
It can also be used for current measurement of low-voltage devices and evaluation of charge/discharge characteristics of batteries and cell batteries.

2 or 4 points [Varies depending on model.] Functions and ON logic can be set for each CTL for external control. Hold (current/max./min. value, max. fluctuation range), zero/span shift, zero/span set Normally open /normally closed ON when control input (CTL*) pin (ON logic) is shorted (open) to GND; setting is reflected when open (shorted). Command control is possible via communication (USB, CAN, RS-485) Commands set via communication cannot be released by terminal input. Reset execution is always required. Response time can be set: 1 to 1999 ms Possible to back up values during shift and set operations. (values can be retained even when power is turned off) Nonvolatile memory (EEPROM) |
