1.5 CATASTROPHIC ERRORS
A catastrophic failure is generated each time the AC Power Supply experiences a hardware
failure. Errors are cleared whenever the AC Power Supply transmits a response, except in the
case of a short circuit fault which may only be cleared by cycling power to the AC Supply.
Catastrophic Error Messages
All begin with:
F/0/0ACS/0(DEV):
This message is followed by one explanatory message from the
following text:

OVERTEMP LED on the front panel will light.
CURRENT LIMIT FAULT <cr><lf>
SHORT CIRCUIT FAULT: AC SUPPLY <cr><lf>
An output loading fault has occurred causing the supply to exceed
5/0/0% rated current output. The supply automatically shuts down and
opens its output relay. The OVERLOAD LATCH LED on the front

on the rear panel. The dip-switch represents the address in binary format. Valid GPIB
Address settings are from 0 to 30. Switch 1 is the LSB, switch 5 is the MSB. Each individual
switch bit is set ('1') when in the 'OFF' position and reset ('0') when in the 'ON' position.
