Remote Operation

*RST (Reset)

*RST (Reset)

Syntax

*RST

Description

*RST is equivalent to a power up condition for the switch hardware.

All relays for which DRIVE is ON are set to the positions determined by ROUTe:PFAil. For any relays not in either the ROUTe:PFAil:OPEN or ROUTe:PFAil:CLOSE list, the positions which are stored in the “last state” list in RAM are used to set the initial switch position. The “last state” list contains the programmed positions of the switch hardware that existed the last time a MEM:SAVE command or a SAVE TO EEROM keypress took place.

The setting of the switches during *RST or power up is done with VERIFY turned OFF, to get all the relays and sense lines into a known state. VERIFY is then turned on for any switches in the VERIFY list.

*RST affects only the switches themselves and does not affect the configuration data stored in RAM (DRIVE and VERIFY lists, drive and delay times, etc).

The [IP] or [Instr Preset] key does a *RST operation, as does the *TST? command.

Example Command

OUTPUT 709;“*RST”

NOTE

The power supply recovery time (see TRIG:SEQ:DEL on page 4-62) will be

 

reset to the default value of 200 msec if the *RST command is issued.
