2.2.12 SYSTem
SYSTem:ERRor[:NEXT]?
Queries the error code and error message of the load. When the
“ERR” annunciator on the front panel is turned on, one or more
errors have occurred to the load. At most 20 error records can be
saved in the load. It will be not saved if the error records exceed
20.
1 The error queue operates in a FIFO (first-in, first-out) mode to
save and read the error. The first returned error is the first
saved error. When all errors have been read, the ““ERR”
annunciator will be turned off automatically.
2 If the error records exceed 20, the last error in the error queue
will be replaced by 350, “Too many errors”. The load will not
save any additional error message, unless you clear or read
errors from the queue.
3 If there is no error occurs to the executing command, “No
error” will be returned.
*CLS can clear the error queue, while *RST can not. All error
records will be lost after the load is turned off.
Command Syntax: SYST:ERR[:NEXT]?
Parameter: None
Returned Parameter: <NR1>?<AARD>
SYSTem:VERSion?
Queries the software version number, e.g. V1.00.
Command Syntax: SYST:VERS?
Parameter: None
Returned Parameter: <AARD>?<NR2>
SYSTem:REMote
Sets the load in Remote status. An error message will be gener-
ated when the load is communicated via GPIB port.
Command Syntax: SYSTem:REMote
Parameter: None
Returned Parameter: None
Related Commands: SYSTem:LOCal
SYSTem:LOCal
Sets the load in Local status. An error message will be generated
when the load is communicated via GPIB port.
Command Syntax: SYSTem:LOCal
Parameter: None
Returned Parameter: None
Related Commands: SYSTem:REMote
2.2.13 TRlGger Subsystem
TRIGger[:IMMediate]
This command generates a trigger signal to the load, regardless
of which trigger source is currently in effect. It has the same func-
tion as the *TRG command.
Command Syntax: TRIGger[:IMMediate]
Parameter: None
Related Commands: TRIG:SOUR
TRIGger:SOURce
Selects the load trigger source. There are three trigger sources:
BUS, EXTernal, HOLD.
BUS: Accepts a GPIB <GET> signal or *TRG command as the
trigger source.
EXTernal: Selects the External trigger input terminal or key on the
front panel as the trigger source. The input signal at the External
trigger input terminal is TTL; the falling edge is triggered.
HOLD: Only the TRIGger:IMMediate command causes a trigger in
this mode. All others, including *TRG, are ignored.
Command Syntax: TRIGger:SOURce <aard>
Parameter: BUS| EXTernal| HOLD
Example: TRIG:SOUR EXT
Query Syntax: TRIGger:SOURce?
Returned Parameter: <aard>
TRIGger:FUNCtion
Sets Transient (Tran) or List function for the trigger object.
Command Syntax: TRIGger:FUNCtion <aard>
Parameter: Tran| List
Query Syntax: TRIGger:FUNCtion?
Example: TRIG:FUNC LIST
Returned Parameter: <aard>Tran| List
INITiate[:IMMediate]
Activates the trigger input terminal once. After a trigger signal has
been received it is automatically deactivated again
Command Syntax:INITiate [:IMMediate]
Paramater: None
Example: INIT
Related Commands: *TRG
INITiate:CONtinuous
Activates the trigger input terminal permanently.
Command Sytax: INITiate:CONtinuous 1
Parameter: ON(1) OFF(0)
Example: INIT:CONT1
Returned Parameter: <NR1> Value: 0 for OFF, 1 for ON
Related Commands: *TRG
