LAB ETS control
ET System control software
Windows control software for ET System DC supplies with PV simulation and data logging.
The LAB / ETS Control Software is a Windows-based solution for controlling and monitoring all ET System DC power supplies, including the LAB HP, LAB SMP, and LAB SMS series. The system enables precise setting of voltage and current via a graphical user interface, alongside real-time monitoring of power and resistance. Advanced features include photovoltaic characteristic simulation (PvSim) with static and dynamic profiles as well as real-time MPPT efficiency tracking. An integrated sequence mode allows for the creation and execution of automated multi-step test procedures with user-defined timing and looping. Additionally, a script mode is available for loading and executing custom control commands for complex testing tasks. The software supports device connectivity via USB, RS232, GPIB, and LAN, providing comprehensive protection functions such as OVP, OCP, and UVP. Typical applications include the characterization of solar inverters and automated load testing in research and production.
