Command

 

Command

OVSET <n>

This command programs the overvoltage protection. See Table

VOLT:PROT

 

4-3 for the programming range of this command.

 

 

Initial condition: MAX

 

POL 0 1

Only applies to units with Option 760. This command sets the

OUTP:REL:POL 01

 

polarity of the output relays to either normal (1) or inverted (0).

 

 

Initial condition: POL 1

 

PON 0 1

This command enables (1) or disables (0) SRQ at power-on.

PSC 0 1

 

Initial condition: last programmed value

 

RELAY 0 1

Only applies to units with Relay Option 760. This command opens

OUTP:REL 0 1

 

(0) or closes (1) the output relays without affecting the

 

 

programmed output state of the unit.

 

 

Initial condition: RELAY 1

 

RLYPON 0 1

Only applies to units with Relay Option 760. This command opens

RCL 0

 

(0) or closes (1) the output relays at power-on without affecting

 

 

the programmed output state of the unit.

 

 

Initial condition: RLYPON 1

 

ROM?

This command returns the ROM version of the dc source.

*IDN?

 

Data Representation: AAA AAA

 

RST

This command resets the dc source if the output is disabled by

OUTP:PROT:CLE

 

the output protection circuits.

 

SENS:CURR

This command sets the current measurement range of the dc

SENS:CURR:RANG

:RANG <n>

source. See Table 4-3 for the programming range of this

 

 

command.

 

 

Initial condition: MAX

 

SENS:SWE

This command defines the number of data points in a

SENS:SWE:POIN

:POIN <n>

measurement sweep.

 

 

Initial condition: 32

 

SENS:SWE

This command defines the time period between measurement

SENS:SWE:TINT

:TINT <n>

samples.

 

 

Initial condition: 15.6 µs.

 

SRQ 0 1

These commands enable or disable the dc source's ability to

*SRE

 

request service from the controller for fault conditions. UNMASK

 

 

defines which conditions are defined as faults.

 

 

Initial condition: SRQ 0

 

STS?

This command reads the contents of the status register, which

STAT:OPER:COND?

 

maintains the present status of the dc source.

STAT:QUES:COND?

 

Data Representation: ZZZZD

*ESE?

SYST:LANG

This command causes the alternate language to become active

SYST:LANG

 

and to be stored in nonvolatile memory. In this case, the

 

 

commands are equivalent. After being shut off, the dc source will

 

 

resume in the last-selected language when power is restored.

 

 

The parameter must be either COMP or SCPI.

 

TEST?

This command causes the dc source to run selftest and report

*TST?

 

any detected failures.
