4.3.5.2 OUTP:ARM (not available for XR Series power supplies)
This command selects between the modes of operation. There are two modes of operation for the
power supply: normal mode and auto sequence mode. Normal mode energizes the current
parameters of the supply until stopped. Auto sequence mode sequentially steps through the
memory updating the supply’s parameters as it increments. Each memory location contains the
voltage set point, current set point, over voltage trip, over current trip, and period. The period
parameter specifies the time period for operating at the memory location when auto sequence
operation is deployed. When enabled, the ARM light lights on the front panel.
To initiate a program sequence, select the starting memory location, execute this command, and
issue an OUPT:START (see OUTP:START) or use the front panel start switch. The ARM light
will blink after the start command. If this process reaches the upper memory limit, memory
location 99, the following memory location will revert back to 0 and continue. Auto sequence
operation will continue until an OUTP:STOP is commanded or a memory location with period set
to 0 is encountered.
ARM? returns the arm state of the power supply.

4.3.5.3 OUTP:START
This command closes the power supply’s input contactor and initiates either normal or program
mode. Auto sequence mode will be initiated if the ARM option is enabled. Normal mode
energizes the power supply with the current parameters for voltage set point, current set point,
over voltage trip, and over current trip. Auto sequence mode will sequentially step through
memory locations until the stop is commanded, OUTP:STOP, or a terminating condition is
reached (see PER, OUTP:STOP).
