It is also capable of performing simple control tasks, such as stepping through voltage/current slopes for automated I-V curve measurements. Measurements can be taken directly (by specifying in seconds) or loaded from a logfile using --load . Data can be plotted or aggregated on stdout. WARNING The KAxxxxP serial interface supports both reading current/voltage data and writing current/voltage limits. korad-logger uses these to change PSU attributes at runtime, if requested. The serial protocol does not use checksums or similar mechanisms, so communication errors or bugs may cause the power supply to receive a write command with an arbitrary voltage or current value. This may result in damaged equipment, fire, or other harm. By using this software, you acknowledge that you are aware of these risks and the following disclaimer.
