MODE?

Returns the power supply operation mode. When the power supply is On (OUT

1) it will return “CV” or “CC”. When the power supply is OFF (OUT 0 or fault

 

 

shutdown) it will return “OFF”.

27

MS?

Returns the Master/Slave setting. Master: n= 1, 2, 3, or 4 Slave: n=0

NOTES:

1.In Advanced parallel mode (refer to Sec. 5.15.2), “n” is the total system current.

2.In Advanced parallel mode, “MC?” returns the Master unit current multiplied by the number of slave units +1.

7.9 GLOBAL OUTPUT COMMANDS

7.9.1General

All supplies, even if not the currently addressed supply, receiving a global command will execute the command. No response to the PC issuing the command will be returned to the PC. The PC issuing the command will be responsible to delay and any other communications until the command is exe- cute. 200 Ms minimum is the suggested delay.

If the command contains an error, out of range values for example, no error report will be sent to the issuing PC.

GRST

Reset. Brings the power supply to a safe and known state:

 

 

Output voltage: 0V, output current: 0A, OUT: Off, Remote: RMT 1,

 

AST: Off

OVP: Max,

UVL: 0.

 

The conditional register (FLT and STAT) are updated. Other registers are not

 

changed.

 

 

 

Non-Latching faults (FB, OVP, SO) are cleared, OUT fault stays

GPV n

Sets the output voltage value in volts. The range of voltage values is shown in Ta-

 

ble 7-5. ‘n’ may be up to 12 char plus dec. pt

 

GPC n

Program the output current value in amperes. The range of current values is

 

shown in Table 7-6. ‘n’ may be up to 12 characters plus decimal pt

GOUT

Turns the output to ON or OFF:

 

 

 

“OUT 1/ON” = turn on

 

 

 

“OUT 0/OFF” = turnoff, clears CV and CC bits in the Status Condition (STAT).

 

OUT ON will respond with “E07’ if the output cannot be turned on because of a

 

latching fault (OTP< AC, ENA, SO) shutdown.

 

GSAV

Save present settings. Same settings as power-down last settings listed in Error!

 

Reference source not found. Except the address and Baud rate are not saved

 

Saves to the RAM. These settings are erased when the supply power is switched

 

off and the new ‘last settings’ are saved.

 

GRCL

Recall last settings. Settings are from last power-down or from last ‘SAV’ or

 

‘GSAV’ command. Address and Baud rate are not recalled so communication is

 

not interrupted.
