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 isO FF(O UT 0or f ault
shutdown) it will r
e
turn “OFF”.
MS?
Returns the Master/Slave setting. Master: n= 1, 2, 3, or 4 Slave: n=0
NOTES:
1. In Advanced parallel mode (refer to S
ec. 5.15.2), “n” is the total system current.
2. In Advanced parallel mode, “MC?” returns the Masterunit current multiplied by the number of slave
units +1.

GLOBAL OUTPUT COMMANDS
7.9.1
GENERAL
All supplies, even if not the currently addressed su
pply, receiving a global
comm.
and will execute
the command. No response to the PC issuing the command will be returned to the PC. The PC iss

ing the command will be responsible to delay and anyother com municationsuntil the command is
execute. 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 curr
ent: 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.

Latching faults (FB, OVP, SO) are cleared, OU
T fault stays

GPV n
Sets the output voltage value in volts. The range of voltage values is shown in

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 char plus dec. pt
4.
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

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.
6.
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 comm
u
nication is
not interrupted.
