Local Control
This chapter describes the local control functionalities that are provided by the
NGPS power supply and some useful information for its use.
The power supply can work either in LOCAL mode or in REMOTE mode. Please
note that only readbacks are allowed from the remote communication interfaces when
the unit is in LOCAL mode (i.e. settings are inhibited).
The control mode (LOCAL / REMOTE) can be set on the configuration page of
the local menu.
