| # | Feature | What it does | Benefit to the user | |---|---------|--------------|---------------------| | **2.1** | **Digital Current Set‑Point (0‑40 A)** | Allows the operator to set a target current via the front‑panel rotary encoder or via Modbus‑TCP. | Easy tuning of motor torque or heating element power without manual potentiometers. | | **2.2** | **Closed‑Loop PID Control** | Continuously compares measured current (via Hall‑effect sensor) with the set‑point and adjusts the MOSFET bridge. | Guarantees stable current even under load transients. | | **2.3** | **Built‑in Over‑Current Protection (OCP)** | Trips the output when current exceeds the programmed limit for > 10 ms. | Prevents damage to downstream equipment and reduces downtime. | | **2.4** | **Temperature Monitoring & Thermal Shutdown** | On‑board NTC sensor monitors the heatsink; shuts down if temperature > 120 °C. | Extends device lifespan and protects the system from overheating. | | **2.5** | **Remote Monitoring via Ethernet (Modbus‑TCP)** | Provides real‑time registers for current, voltage, temperature, fault status. | Enables integration with SCADA/PLC systems for centralized supervision. | | **2.6** | **Local LCD Display (2‑line, 16‑char)** | Shows set‑point, actual current, error code, and device ID. | Quick visual feedback without needing a PC. | | **2.7** | **Configurable Alarm Thresholds** | Users can set low‑current, high‑current, and temperature alarms that appear on the LCD and are sent over Modbus. | Early warning of abnormal operating conditions. | | **2.8** | **Self‑Test Routine (Power‑On)** | Runs a 2‑second diagnostic of power supplies, sensor integrity, and communication ports. | Guarantees the unit is healthy before production starts. | | **2.9** | **Firmware Update via USB‑C** | Drag‑and‑drop the *.bin* file onto the virtual drive; device reboots into new firmware. | Keeps the controller up‑to‑date with the latest performance improvements. | | **2.10** | **Fail‑Safe Default State** | On loss of power or communication, the output defaults to **0 A** (open circuit). | Prevents unintended energizing of machinery. | | Easy tuning of motor torque or heating
: Supports guiding to the left edge (Sensor 1), right edge (Sensor 2), or the web center-line. It can also handle line or contrast guiding for printed materials.
