Supported OLC Commands (User Level)
Command Parameters Description
K Access Level Key code Enables access to advanced generator controls.
Only used by MKS Trained Field Service and
Applications personnel
E RS ‐ 232 Enable None Enables RS ‐ 232 control of the generator
I RS ‐ 232 Disable None Disables control of the generator through the RS ‐
232 port. Even when control is disabled,
readbacks can still be obtained via this interface.
N RF ON None Enables RF Output
F RF OFF None Disables RF Output
A Forward Power
Leveling
None Sets the controller leveling mode to forward
leveling. In this mode, forward power will match
the setpoint, except when the generator exceeds
the reverse power limit.
V Delivered Power
Leveling
None Sets the controller leveling mode to delivered
leveling. In this mode, the load power (forward –
reflected) will match the setpoing, except when
the generator exceeds the reverse power or
forward power limits.
G External Power
Leveling
None Future use – sets the controller leveling mode to
external leveling. In this mode, an external
readback signal (i.e. DC bias) sets the level the
generator will attempt to achieve.
P Power Setpoint XXXXXX Sets the power setpoint for the generator. After
the ‘P’ command is issued, the generator will
respond with “Enter New Setpoint (AAAAAA ‐
BBBBBB):”. The power setpoint must be entered
as a six digit value (i.e. 000750 for 750W. Note ‐
the leading zeros are required)
C CEX Enable None Activates CEX mode. In this mode, the generator
receives its drive signal from the source attached
to CEX IN. Please review the specifications section
for CEX signal requirements.
J CEX Disable None Disables CEX mode. When disabled, the
generator uses its internal 13.56MHz source.
Q Set Pulse High
Time
XXXXXX When utilizing pulse mode, this command sets the
pulse high time in microseconds. After the ‘Q’
command is issued, the generator will respond
with “High Pulse Time:”. The pulse high time must
be entered as a six digit value (i.e. 005000 for
5000us. Note ‐ the leading zeros are required).
X Set Pulse Low
Time
XXXXXX When utilizing pulse mode, this command sets the
pulse low time in microseconds. After the ‘X’
command is issued, the generator will respond
with “Low Pulse Time:”. The pulse low time must
be entered as a six digit value (i.e. 005000 for
5000us. Note ‐ the leading zeros are required)
U Enable Pulsing None Enables internal pulsing of the RF output.
Y Disable Pulsing None Disables internal pulsing and allows CW operation
of the generator.
