I am looking for this controller to use with my PCR1000L Kikusui AC power supply. Now there are many available on eBay but they all missing the required interface board that slides into the front of the power supply. This has a connector plug that the cable from the remote connects to. I guess the ones available are mostly surplus sales, and the interface boards were left in the power units when they were sold on gov auctions.

Does anybody have a diagram of this interface board? Hopefully, it is a non-micro based pcb that I could make up.

I have check from internet seem very specific interfacing.
Did you check with them (Kikusui) for the referbish or the aftermarket board?
Some of Kikusui i ever connect they are using parallel output but that one for monitor and read only, but this NF power supply it's 2way communication, not easy to snift i though.
Better look for your NF power supply service manual if avialable to see what you can do.

I have contacted Kikusui, but they don't have any old boards to sell. I have tried searching for a controller for sale that includes the interface card, but so far all the controllers on offer are card-less.

The other option will be to try getting a GPIB card for it and do the control via LabView. According to the manual, such a card can do all the functions of the remote.

If you're not in a big rush, you might consider making a "saved search" on ebay. I did this for a logic analyzer cable for my Agilent mixed-signal oscilloscope. In my case it took a few months, but someone did list one and I immediately bought it.

if you need to control basic fuction only (on/off) output or up/donw voltage , current, try to jump the switch on panel then use the external button to control maybe possible? Smiley

I have a search look out setup on eBay for quite some time but just the remote control boxes popped up thus far. The reason for controlling it with the remote or interface card is that none of the advanced functions are available using the front control panel of the supply itself. I have a need to set up some arb testing waveforms.
