Using The Display

Changing or Entering Values

The following figure is an example of the keyboard display when a power module is addressed and the Meter function is active:

The keyboard continuously displays measured voltage and current. The blinking cursor initially highlights the voltage field,

which indicates that the value in that field can be changed using the numeric Entry keys. You can also use the and keys to move the cursor across the display to select other fields that you want to change.

Press repeatedly to increment the voltage value.

You can also use the numeric Entry keys to enter a new value directly into the field. The display will switch to the Command function when the numeric Entry keys are used. Enter the new value next to the SCPI command, and execute the

command with the key.

Displaying Status

Use the key to view the present state of the following status bits of the addressed module: CV, CC, OV, OC, OT, RT, WTG, and DWE. A Status mnemonic appears on the display only if the corresponding bit has been set in the status registers. In the following example, the display indicates that the module is in constant voltage (CV) mode and is waiting (WTG) for a trigger input.

The status response remains on the display until you press another key to do something else, or until the module goes into

remote mode. Press or to return to the meter function.
