ARPS Command1

Description

Similar SCPI

 

 

Command

RST

This command resets the power supply if the output is disabled by

OUTP:PROT:CLE

 

the overvoltage, remote inhibit, or foldback protection circuits.

 

 

The power supply resets to the parameters stored for the power-on

 

 

state. Note that the settings can be changed while the supply is

 

 

disabled.

 

HOLD OFF

These commands determine if certain newly received

VOLT:TRIG

HOLD 0

commands are immediately acted on by the power supply

CURR:TRIG

HOLD ON

or are acted on later while the supply continues to operate with

 

HOLD 1

previously received values. HOLD ON can be used to

 

 

synchronize power supply actions with the actions of other GPIB

 

 

devices. (See the TRG command.) Initial condition: HOLD OFF

 

 

 

 

HOLD?

This command reads the HOLD setting.

VOLT:TRIG?

 

 

CURR:TRIG?

 

 

 

T

These commands cause the power supply to act on commands that

INIT ON;TRIG

TRG

have been previously sent, but are being held (pending). The

INIT ON;*TRG

 

supply continues to operate with previously received values until a

 

 

trigger command is received (see HOLD command.) The device

 

 

trigger interface message performs the same function.

 

 

 

 

STO RCL

These commands cause the power supply to store and recall power

*SAV

 

supply states, except for output on/off. Each state includes:

*RCL

 

voltage (lst and 2nd rank), current (lst and 2nd rank), soft voltage

 

 

and current limit, delay time, service request on/off, foldback (lst

 

 

and 2nd rank), mask (lst and 2nd rank), and hold.

 

 

Initial condition: Each register is initiated to the turn-on values.

 

 

 

 

STS?

This command reads the contents of the status register, which

STAT:OPER:COND?

 

maintains the present status of the power supply.

STAT:QUES:COND?

 

 

*ESE?

 

 

 

ASTS?

This command reads the contents of the accumulated status

STAT:OPER?

 

register, which stores any bit condition entered in the status

STAT:QUES?

 

register since the accumulated status register was last read,

*ESE?

 

regardless of whether the condition still exists.

 

 

 

 

UNMASK

These commands determine the conditions that will set bits in the

STAT:OPER:ENAB

mnemonics

fault register, allowing the operator to define the conditions that

STAT:QUES:ENAB

UNMASK

will be reported as faults. Fault conditions can be enabled by

*ESE

xxx

sending a string of status register mnemonics after the UNMASK

 

 

command. The mnemonics must be separated by commas, and

 

 

may be sent in any order, but must correspond to the condition that

 

 

will be enabled. Fault conditions can also be enabled by sending

 

 

the decimal equivalent of the total bit weight of all conditions to be

 

 

enabled. UNMASK NONE disables all conditions from setting

 

 

bits in the fault register. Initial condition: UNMASK NONE
