Use the setup command to enable the option card analog inputs to be used for adjusting the settings
when the supply is in remote mode. Note that the current and voltage setting fields must be blank
when changing the source of settings in remote mode if the source is not the host port.

Use the setup command to change the channel 1 current and voltage settings. In this example the
source of the current setting and the source of the voltage setting will be forced to “host” because the
host has just changed the settings (if the unit is not in remote mode the setup command will not be
accepted and a NAK response will be sent).

Notes:
1. Blank fields are ignored so whatever setting is currently active for that field will still be active after a
command with a blank field.
2. A command type of 1 (set) is only allowed if the power supply is in remote mode as indicated by the
LED on the front panel.
3.
The source of the setting automatically changes to “host” if the setting value is changed by the host.
For example, if the host changes the voltage setting using the setup command, then the source of
the voltage settin
g is automatically changed to “host”.
4. The
“source of the settings in remote mode” setting has no effect when the supply is not in remote
mode (remote mode is indicated when the RMT indicator is on).
5.
The source of a setting can only be changed to “option card” if the appropriate option card is
installed.
6. The voltage and current settings should be blank in any command where the source is set to a
value other than the host.
7. The source of a setting in remote mode is the existing source of the setting in remote mode.
Changing the source of a setting with this command will immediately change the source of the
setting in remote mode. Changes made to the source of a setting in remote mode with this
command will not be maintained through a power cycle. Use the use
r settings ‘t’ command to
change the default (at power on) source of the setting.
8. The operate and remote switch functionality when in the remote mode will depend on the settings in
the User Settings command.
9. Sending this command with a command type of 0 (read) and the channel ID set to zero will receive
no response. The channel must be specified (not zero) when reading settings with this command.
10. Both channels on a power supply can be set (command type 1) to the same value using one
instance of this command with the channel set to zero.
11. Setting a XTC unit type that is not compatible with the currently selected XTC control type will
cause a NAK response.
12. Changing the totalizer units or resolution will cause the totalizer value to be reset to zero. The
total
izer can also be cleared using the user settings “t” command.
