Abstract

A system is described. The system includes at least one power supply, a control system communicatively coupled to the at least one power supply, a communication module, and at least one channel connecting the at least one power supply to the communication module. The at least one channel is also configured to support communication according to a particular communication protocol. The communication module is configured to interface with two or more power supplies of the at least one power supply via the at least one channel, and each power supply of the at least one power supply is configured to transmit diagnostic data associated with the power supply to the communication module via the at least one channel.
