FAQs

Does the ProbitGears simulate the physical load of each control gear?

Answer: No. Due of the wide variety of possible load characteristics this property will not be simulated. Any load simulation and testing has to be done manually by the user. The ProbitGears is designed to cause a minimal load based on its own operation and transceiver circuit (high impedance OPA receiver and MOSFET transmitter).
