Operation
Command Reference
| Command | Description | 
| 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 J7 | 
| 
 | 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 | 
| OVCAL | Causes the master controller to perform automatic calibration of the | 
| 
 | supply’s over voltage protection circuitry. Set CMODE ON before using this | 
| 
 | command. Ensure jumper J65 on the  | 
| 
 | for remote operation. | 
| OVSET <voltage> | Sets the supply’s over voltage protection trip point in volts (default) or in | 
| 
 | millivolts. If the trip point is exceeded, or if the trip point value is lower than | 
| 
 | the present output voltage setting, the supply will ignore the command, turn | 
| 
 | on the ERR LED, and set the ERR bit in the accumulated status register. | 
| 
 | Reset with the RST command. | 
| 
 | Range: 0 to 110% of model maximum output voltage (VMAX) | 
| 
 | Initial value: 110% of model VMAX | 
| 
 | 
 | 
| OVSET? | Asks for the supply’s present over voltage protection limit. | 
| 
 | Response: OVSET <voltage> | 
| REN <1/ON>,<0/OFF> | Remote Enable. When set to REN 0, the power supply is in local mode. If a | 
| 
 | command is sent from the computer, the power supply does not respond | 
| 
 | but remains in local mode. When set to REN 1, the power supply will enter | 
| 
 | remote mode if a command is sent from the computer. See also | 
| 
 | “Remote/Local Operation” on page 27. | 
| REN? | Asks for the state of the remote enable. See REN command. | 
| 
 | Response: REN <state> | 
| 
 | 
 | 
| ROM? | Asks for the version number of the master and slave EPROMs located on | 
| 
 | the interface PCB. | 
| 
 | Response: ROM M:<version> S:<version> | 
| 
 | 
 | 
| RST | Resets the supply to present voltage and current settings if the output is | 
| 
 | disabled by over voltage or foldback protection. Output values may be | 
| 
 | changed via VSET, ISET, and OVSET while the unit is disabled, but those | 
| 
 | values will not take effect until RST is applied. |
