*IDN?
This query command reads the power supply’s identification string. The power supply
returns four fields separated by commas. The first field is the manufacturers name,
the second field is the model number, the third field is reserved (always “0”), and the
fourth field is a version code which contains three numbers. The first number of the
version code is the firmware version number for the main power supply processor; the
second is for the input/output processor; and the third is for the front-panel processor.
For example:
ARRAY,3662A,0,1.3-1.0-1.5
*RST
This command resets the power supply to its power-on state.
Command State
CURR[:LEV][:IMM] Output dependent value
CURR[:LEV]:TRIG Output dependent value
DISP[:STAT] ON
INST[:SEL] P6V
INST:COUP NONE
OUTP[:STAT] OFF
OUTP:TRAC OFF
TRIG:DEL 0
TRIG:SOUR BUS
VOLT[:LEV][:IMM] 0
VOLT[:LEV]:TRIG 0
The reset operation sets the output current to the maximum value.
*TST?
This query performs a complete self-test of the power supply and returns “0” if the
self-test passes or “1” if it fails.
*SAV { 0| 2 | ……|9 }
This command stores the present state of the power supply, which can store 10 sets of
operating states from 0 to 9. The state storage features in saving the states or values of
INST[:SEL], VOLT[:IMM], CURR[:IMM], OUTP[:STAT], OUTP:TRAC,
TRIG:SOUR and TRIG: DEL.
*RCL { 0| 2 | ……|9 }
This command recalls a previously stored state. To recall a state, you must store it in
advance. When recalling a stored state, you must use the same memory location used
previously to store the state.
