KRI PWS Control – operating and monitoring software<\/h2>\n

KRI PWS Control<\/strong> is an operator interface for the power-supply controllers from KRI \/ Kaufman & Robinson. It reproduces the device front panel in the browser, reads back all measured values over the serial interface, records them and plots them.<\/p>\n

The software is a single HTML file<\/strong>. There is no installation, no runtime environment and no cloud connection – it runs entirely locally in the browser.<\/p>\n

Start directly – no download<\/h2>\n

The operator interface can be started directly from this page. The browser connects to the serial interface of your own computer; no data is transmitted and nothing is installed.<\/p>\n

Requirement:<\/em> Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge and a USB-\/RS-232 adapter to the controller. On the first connection the browser asks which port may be used.<\/p>\n

Alternatively you can save the file and open it offline by double-clicking – the feature set is identical.<\/small><\/p>\n

Features<\/h2>\n

Device panel<\/h3>\n

A reproduction of the front panel with seven-segment displays, status LEDs and controls. Setpoints can be set with the rotary knob or typed directly into the display field.<\/p>\n

Recording and plot<\/h3>\n

All measured values are recorded continuously as CSV and shown live. The axes are separated by magnitude, so a 600 V beam voltage does not flatten the discharge currents of a few hundred milliamps. Recordings can be reloaded later and replayed step by step onto the panel.<\/p>\n
