1.
As a means of changing the IEEE address used to connect to the L-
Series power source.
Only one L-Series power source is supported at a
time in this version of the LSGUI. This does include however multi-box L-
Series units operated from a single -P or -PT controller. The IEEE
address selected must match that of the connected L-Series unit or the
communication between the PC and the unit will not be established. Refer
to the L-Series instruction manuals for details on setting the IEEE address
from the front panel.
2.
To switch between connected mode (normal operation) and simulation
mode.
If a power source is found at the specified IEEE address, the
program selects normal mode of operation. If the power source is set to a
different IEEE address, or is otherwise not found at the specified IEEE
address, the simulation mode is automatically selected.
3.
To interact with the connected L-Series unit directly over the IEEE bus.
The command line and response window can be used to issue
Abbreviated Plain English (APE) commands to the L-Series unit. Any
responses will be displayed in the response window located below the
command line. All available APE commands are listed in the drop down
box on the command line. Use the mouse to click on the down arrow at
the right hand side of the command line and scroll down to click on the
command desired. Note that many commands may need additional
parameters. Consult the L-Series instruction manual for detailed
information on APE language syntax. This mode is particularly useful for
the development of complex programs.
