Command

Description

DLY <seconds>

S ts a programmable time delay employed by the supply before reporting fault

 

conditions. The power supply uses the time delay after receiving a new output

 

voltage or current setting via VSET or ISET, or after receiving RST, TRG, or OUT

 

ON

omma ds. During the time delay, the power supply disables CV, CC, and

 

FOLD conditions from generating faults, preventing possible nuisance foldback if

 

the sup ly momentarily switches modes while changing an output setting.

 

Range: 0 to 32 seconds, with 32ms resolution

 

Initial value: 0.5 second

DLY?

Asks for he setting of the programmable time delay before the supply reports fault

 

conditions.

 

R

ponse: DLY <seconds>

 

 

ERR?

Asks for he most recent remote programming error. When the power supply

 

d te ts a programming error, it lights the ERR LED and sets the ERR bit in the

 

accumulated status and fault registers. If the error bit has been masked using the

 

MASK command, then the ERR bit in the registers will not set. Once an error is

 

d te ted, the remaining portion of the command line is discarded. An error query

 

cl ars the ERR bit in the accumulated status register. See “Error Codes” on page 3–

 

19.

 

 

Response: ERR <error number> Example: ERR 0 (if no error)

 

 

FAULT?

Asks for the state of the fault register. A bit is set in the fault register when a fault

 

arises for that condition. Lists the conditions which activate a fault bit. You can use

 

the MASK command to disable bits from being set in the fault register.

 

When a bit is set in the fault register it also asserts a signal on the Pin 4 user signal

 

line. You can tie the Pin 4 fault line signal to the power supply's own External

 

Shutdown user line, Pin 1, so that the shutdown signal goes low (active) in the case

 

of a user-defined fault.

 

The FAULT? query clears bits in the supply's fault register and fault line.

 

Response: FAULT <fault mask> where fault mask is the decimal equivalent of the

 

total bit weights for the operating conditions as listed in the fault register. See

 

“Accumulated Status, Status, and Fault Registers” on page 3–17.

 

 

FOLD

Sets foldback mode for the supply. Foldback protection disables the power supply

<2/CC>, <1/CV>,

output when the output enters the fold condition. Reset with the RST command.

<0/OFF>

Example: Specify FOLD 1 or FOLD CV (Constant Voltage) when you want the

 

supply to operate in Constant Current mode and have foldback protection disable

 

the output if the supply switches to Constant Voltage mode.

 

Initial value: FOLD 0/OFF
