Description

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Used to implement commands that have been sent

59

 

 

to and held by the power supply (power supply

 

 

 

continues to operate with previous values until

 

 

 

trigger command is received). See HOLD

 

 

 

command. The device trigger interface message

 

 

 

performs the same function.

 

 

 

 

 

*0-15

 

Cause power supply to store and recall up to 16

60

 

 

sets of the complete machine state except for

 

 

 

output on/off. Machine state consists of:

 

 

 

programmed voltage (first and second rank),

 

 

 

programmed current (first and second rank), soft

 

 

 

voltage limit, soft current limit, delay time,

 

 

 

service request on/off, foldback (first and second

 

 

 

rank), mask (first and second rank), and hold.

 

 

 

Initial Condition: Each storage register is

 

 

 

initialized to the turn-on values.

 

 

 

 

 

STS?

ASTS?

UNMASK mnemonics

UNMASK xxx

**STS xxx

**ASTS xxx

Used to read the contents of the status register,

60

which maintains the present status of the power

 

supply. See Table 3-9 for a description of each bit

 

in the status register, and the bit weight for each

 

condition.

 

 

 

Used to read the contents of the accumulated-

61

status register, which stores any bit that was

 

entered in the status register since the

 

accumulated-status register was last read,

 

regardless of whether the condition still exists.

 

The bit descriptions and weights are the same as

 

in the status register, see Table 3-9.

 

 

 

Determines which conditions are capable of

62

setting bits in the FAULT register; therefore,

 

allows operator to define which conditions are

 

fault conditions. Conditions can be enabled either

 

by sending a string of mnemonics after the

 

command UNMASK, or by sending the decimal

 

equivalent of the total bit weight for all conditions

 

to be enabled. The mnemonics and bit weights are

 

the same as in the status register, see Table 3-9.

 

Mnemonics are separated from each other by

 

commas, and may be sent in any combination and

 

in any order. The command UNMASK NONE

 

disables all conditions from setting bits in fault

 

register. Initial Condition: UNMASK NONE
