WinPower Silver. Communication software for Eltek Power Systems

1. WinPower Silver

Communication software for Eltek Power Systems

2. Introduction

Winpower Silver is a Windows based PC
software for communication with AL 175 &
Flatpack MCU.
MCU and AL 175 is the control/ monitoring
unit used in most small & Medium power
range Eltek rectifier systems today, such as:
Flatpack
MPSU 200 > MPSU 6000
PRSV 700 (Wall mountable cabinets)
PRSB 700 (Floor standing cabinets)

35. What`s needed?

PC requirements:
WinPower Silver runs on Windows 98, Windows ME and
Windows 2000.
Eltek RS 232 serial communication cable.
System requirements:
MCU or AL175 monitoring / control unit
Most new systems are configured for WinPower
Systems using VT-100 needs a SW upgrade in order to
communicate with the WinPower PC-software (Pcomm
protocol, contact Eltek Energy for details)
