PMK Probe Power Supplies

The software for remotely controlling PMK products is free and can be used with compatible power supplies, such as the PS-02 or PS-03.

All power supplies feature a USB interface and are optionally available with a LAN interface.

The exact range of functions for the probes is described on the pages linked below for each software solution.

Supported probe models:

• Differential High-Voltage Probe Series BumbleBee®
• Differential High-Voltage Probe Series HORNET®
• Optically Isolated Probe Series FireFly®
• Active Singe-ended Probe Series Sonic® with Reverse Polarity Protection
• Differential Probe Series HSDP

The following software solutions are available for remote control of PMK products:

• PMK Probe Control (GUI for Windows)

• PMK-Probes Python Paket (Programming Interface for Windows, Linux)

PMK Probe Control

The PMK Probe Control Software is used for remote control, monitoring, and configuration of compatible PMK probes that are connected to a compatible power supply, such as the PS02 oder PS03, via a USB or LAN interface.

Supported probe models:

• Differential High-Voltage Probe Series BumbleBee®
• Differential High-Voltage Probe Series HORNET®
• Optically Isolated Probe Series FireFly®
• Active Singe-ended Probe Series Sonic® with Reverse Polarity Protection
• Differential Probe Series HSDP

For the probe models listed, we recommend using our remote software solutions, PMK Probe Control (Windows GUI) and pmk-probes (Python driver), to take full advantage of their capabilities.

Features:

Sonic®, HSDP Serie:

• Numerical entry of the offset voltage to suppress DC components in the signal, allowing the user to gain more detailed insights into the signal without overloading the oscilloscope's input amplifier

BumbleBee® Serie, HORNET® Serie:

• Automatic probe detection
• Save and load probe settings to enable reproducible measurements
• Free color selection of the channel identifier to match the selected oscilloscope input
• Offset zeroing without entering values
• Changing the offset step size when using the probe manually
• Numerical input of the offset voltage to mask DC components in the signal, allowing the user more detailed insight into the signal without overdriving the oscilloscope's input amplifier
• Setting the desired division factor
• Dark switching of the entire keypad for use of the probe in dark chambers
• Keypad lock to protect against unauthorized access and thus against unwanted changes to the settings
• Activate / mute keypad buzzer for manual and remote operation
• Detection and counting of overvoltages or overdriven amplifiers with path detection
• Switchable continuous signaling (beep) when overvoltage (overload) is detected
• The software enables the use of PMK probes in semiconductor testers or in environments that are not accessible or dangerous for the user during operation.

The software enables the use of PMK probes in semiconductor testers or in environments that are inaccessible to the user or hazardous during operation. ​

FireFly®:

• Display of probe status
• Display of the battery level
• Switching the probe head module on and off
• Auto-zero functionality
• Display of the communication status
• Resetting the error memory
• Display of the propagation delay
• Keyboard lock setting
