Master unit settings
1
Configure the settings for the connection with the PC.
For details on settings for the connection with the PC, see Interface Setup.
2
Press CONFIG several times until CF60 is displayed.
3
Turn the VOLTAGE knob until CF67 (multichannel (VMCB) domain num-
ber) is displayed.
4
Use the CURRENT knob to set the domain number.
PWR-01s that have the same domain number perform multichannel operations.
Set this value to a number other than 0.
5
Turn the VOLTAGE knob until CF68 (multichannel (VMCB) channel
number) is displayed.
6
Use the CURRENT knob to select 0.
Because this is the master unit, set this value to 0.
7
Turn the PWR-01 off.
Caution
The LAN interface can be accessed from any place on the network. If necessary,
configure the security settings. You can apply password protection for security,
and you can restrict the IP addresses to limit the hosts.
Turning power on
First turn the slave units on, and then turn the master unit on. If the PWR-01s are
organized in a rack system, turn all the units on at the same time. If you turn the
master unit on first, the slave units will not be detected correctly.
When a slave unit turns on, all its LEDs light, and then the following sequence is
displayed: the rated voltage and rated current, the firmware version number, and
then the build number. Each item is displayed for approximately 1 second. Then,
the slave unit displays "I-F SLAV" and enters the wait state. When the PWR-01 is
designated as a slave unit by the master unit, the slave unit enters the operation
wait state.
The slave unit will not stop displaying "I-F SLAV" until it receives the slave designa-
tion from the master unit. Check the CONFIG parameters (CF61, CF67, and CF68)
and the LAN connection. If you change the CONFIG parameters, reboot the PWR-
01.
When the master unit turns on, all its LEDs light, and then the following sequence
is displayed: the rated voltage and rated current, the firmware version number, and
then the build number. Each item is displayed for approximately 1 second. Then,
the master unit displays "FIND CH" and searches for slave units. When the master
unit finishes searching, it enters the operation wait state.
Checking the multichannel configuration
To check the multichannel configuration, send the INSTrument:CATalog? query.
You cannot check the configuration from the panel.
