Status reporting

The Output Register

0

0

0

ARM

RLY

POL

ON

STBY

ARM

the Power Module is Armed (new SET and PROT values are stored and

 

do not effect the output)

RLY

Output Disconnect Relay is closed (0) or open (1).

POL

Output Polarity (using relays) is Positive (0) or Negative (1).

ON

Power Module’s output is enabled (1).

STBY

Power Module’s output is actually disabled - Standby (1).

The Output Register shows the current state of the Power Module.

The Faults Register

0

0

0

R_FB

TEMP OVP

OCP

SENS

R_FB

Retry Foldback caused the Power Module to shutdown (1).

TEMP

Power Module Over Temperature (1).

OVP

Power Module’s Over Voltage Protection was tripped (1).

OCP

Power Module’s Over Current Protection was tripped (1).

SENS

Power Module’s Sense lines have excessive voltage drop (1).

The Faults Register shows the current state of the Power Module.

The Status Register

0

0

0

CAL

CONF

FLT

WRN

1

CAL

Power Module is not calibrated (1).

CONF

the confidence Test had errors (1).

FLT

the Faults Register has some bits set (1).

WRN

the Warnings Register has some bits set (1).

The Status Register shows the current state of the Power Module.

Bit 0, usually returns 1 (this is the Power Module’s ready flag - it will be 0 during the execution of lengthy commands mostly inaccessible to the user).

The Error Code

The Power Module’s Error Code Byte is cleared when read.

The Events Enable Register

PON

0

CMD

OUT

ERR

FLT

WRN

OPC

The Events Enable Register has the same structure as the Events register. It is used as a mask for generating the Power Module’s Status Summary Bit. A set bit in the Events Enable Register enables the corresponding Events Register bit to set the Summary Bit.

The register is set with the CESE <int> Command and read with the CESE? Query.
