Minimum voltage of the PPS-11360

[michael-dauer]

I have the same issue as reported by @jonathanlarochelle previously, but with a PPS-11360. To pinpoint the error I connected with a PuTTY serial console to the PPS and issued a

VOLT000

command to which there was no response indicating an error, whereas to

VOLT008

the response was OK. I checked the output voltage with GETD and as wished it was 0.8 V.

I logged the mentioned VOLT??? commands with the PuTTY serial console. The transcript is:

GMAX
362700
OK
VOLT000
VOLT007
VOLT008
OK
GETS
008200
OK
VOLT240
OK
GETS
240200
OK

Is there anything else I can contribute for the PPS-11360?

I closed the issue by mistake, I tried to provide some additional information.

Hi, I have added minimum voltages for the devices I had on-hand (see #22 ).

I would recommend you add the minimum voltage for the PPS-11360 to PPS_MIN_VOLTAGE.

Hi @michael-dauer

Thank you for reporting, and already providing a solution for your powersupply model! As @jonathanlarochelle suggested, you would just have to change this item in the PPS_MIN_VOLTAGE dict:

https://github.com/ap--/voltcraft/blob/19e59f3a3bdbb601ba4549db0ca9c215514dc583/voltcraft/pps.py#L29

From 0 to 0.8 as you've determined.

You can contribute the change by using the github web UI. Click on the edit button, create a new fork, and make the edit, commit the change, and then the github web UI will suggest to create a pull request after.

Let me know if I can help, Andreas 😃
