Command

Description

IRDAT <Ilo>,<Ihi>

Calculates and records the slope and offset for readback voltage using

 

IRLO and IRHI data. Set CMODE ON before using this command. See also

 

the calibration procedures in Section 4.

 

<Ilo> and <Ihi> are in <current> format.

IRHI

The power supply outputs a current value to an external device connected

 

as part of the calibration procedure and records a current readback value

 

internally. These values are at the high end of the programmed current

 

range. Refer to the output value as IRHI and record it to use as input with

 

the IRDAT command. Set CMODE ON before using this command. See

 

also the calibration procedures in Section 4.

IRLO

The power supply outputs a current value to an external device connected

 

as part of the calibration procedure and records a current readback value

 

internally. These values are at the low end of the programmed current

 

range. Refer to the output value as IRLO and record it to use as input with

 

the IRDAT command. Set CMODE ON before using this command. See

 

also the calibration procedures in Section 4.

ISET <current>

Sets the power supply’s output current in amps (default) or in milliamps.

 

This programmed current is the actual output in CC mode or the current

 

limit in CV mode.

 

Range: 0 to model maximum output current (IMAX)

 

Initial value: 0 amps

 

 

ISET?

Asks for the supply’s present output current setting. Does not apply to

 

current settings which are being held. See HOLD command.

 

Response: ISET <current>

 

 

MASK <mnemonics>

Disables the supply's previously unmasked operating conditions from

 

setting bits in the fault and status registers. See “Accumulated Status,

 

Status, and Fault Registers” on page 46. Mnemonics are separated from

 

each other by commas and may be sent in any order.

 

Mnemonics: CV, CC, OV, OT, SD, FOLD, ERR, PON, REM, ACF, OPF,

 

SNSP

 

Note: UNMASK NONE = MASK ALL (Initial value)

 

MASK NONE = UNMASK ALL

OUT <1/ON>,<0/OFF>

Enables or disables the supply’s voltage/current output. The supply will

 

continue to accept new commands while the output is disabled but these

 

will not be implemented until OUT ON or OUT 1 is received. OUT ON is the

 

default setting. When you start the supply in remote mode, the output is

 

enabled.

 

OUT OFF (or OUT 0) also sets the isolation signal on the rear panel J21

 

connector, line 3. You can use the to trip external relays to isolate the power

 

supply from the load.

 

Initial value: OUT ON (or OUT 1) for output enabled

OUT?

Asks for the present enabled/disabled status of the supply’s output

 

voltage/current.

 

Response: OUT 1 output enabled or

 

OUT 0 output disabled
