The Profile Pro8000-4 is an 8-slot modular mainframe chassis engineered for electro-optical test and control applications requiring high current capacity. This 19-inch rackmount unit delivers up to 32 A total output current across eight individually rated 4 A slots, with a maximum power consumption of 640 VA. The chassis features a menu-driven front panel interface with a 4 × 20 character vacuum-fluorescence display, enabling PC-independent operation and automatic module identification on power-up. Dual communication interfaces—IEEE 488.2 and RS232C—provide both local and remote control capabilities for integrated test systems.
