So we have a bunch of BK Precision 9110 power supplies and we need to come up with a way to log their readings. The back of the thing has a D-sub connector, like the ones that are used for RS-232. Connecting a TTL to RS-232 adapter and sending whatever text over the serial will get a garbage response at all the bauds I've tried, but only on the first communication after power-up. The sent chars are also looped back (not hard-wired, does not work when power is off). I have a feeling that there might be a way to read the data from this port but not sure where to start. The motivation is not to exchange all the power supplies we have which would take time and cost a small fortune. I've contacted the company, they claim to have no information. My guess is that this model is rebranded, like other models by BK, since they all look different.
Thoughts?
