N67xx DUT Power Supply Installation
Inhibit Input
Pin 3 can be configured as a remote inhibit input. The polarity of pin 3 can also be
configured. Pin 8 is the common for pin 3.
The Inhibit Input function lets an external input signal control the output state of all
the output channels in the DUT power supply. The signal latency is 5 microseconds.
Pin 3 can be programmed for the following Inhibit modes, which are stored in
non-volatile memory:

To select the inhibit input polarity:
DIG:PIN3:POL <pol>
To latch the Inhibit signal:

Inhibit modes
Mode
Description
LATChing
Causes a logic-true transition on the Inhibit input to disable all outputs. The
outputs will remain disabled after the inhibit signal is received.
LIVE
Allows the enabled outputs to follow the state of the Inhibit input. When the
Inhibit input is true, the outputs are disabled. When the Inhibit input is false, the
outputs are re-enabled.
OFF
The Inhibit input is ignored.
