Device Clear Interface Function via the Host Computer. For proper time delays between com-
mands refer to PAR. 3.4. For details on the CIIL commands refer to PAR. 3.6.3 and Appendix C
as well as the Power Module Controller Manual. The following does not include the IEEE 488
Bus Commands.
1.
To verify the Power Module is operational the Host Computer sends:
CNF(cr)(lf)
b.
The Power Module Controller does self test
c.
All MAT Power Modules output enable relays open, all Power Modules go to maximum
rating, and the Power Module Controller checks for error flags. After the test, the relays
remain open and the Power Modules are set to zero.
4.
To verify the CNF command was implemented, the Host Computer sends:
STA(cr)(lf)
The Power Module Controller sends back (if no errors occur)
(sp)(cr)(lf)
5.
Proceed per PAR. 2.8.1 through 2.8.3 substituting full scale voltage/current values appropi-
ate to the model being checked
2.8.1
EXAMPLE 1: FULL SCALE VOLTAGE CHECK
Program the Power Module MAT 100-10 to full scale voltage and check that the front panel
meter reading and internal measured values are the same.
6.
To program the Power Module to 100 volts, with a current limit of 10 amps the Host Com-
puter sends:
FNC DCS :CH3 SET VOLT 100 SET CURL 10(cr)(lf)
The MAT at address 3, is now set to 100 volts, with a current limit of 10 amps.
7.
To verify the FNC command was implemented, the Host Computer sends:
STA(cr)(lf)
The Power Module Controller sends back (if no errors occur):
(sp)(cr)(lf)
8.
To measure the voltage at the output the Host Computer sends:
FNC DCS VOLT :CH3(cr)(lf)
The MAT at address 3 is now set to take a reading;
9.
To take a reading the Host Computer sends:
