Table 5-6: Alarm status register content.
Table 5-7: Error codes register content.
2.Alarm Status Register:
The alarm status register records fault conditions occurring during power supply operation. Any set bit
in this register causes the ‘alarm’ bit in the operational status register to be set. Reading the register
does not change it’s content. The register is cleared by :DCL; command.
3. Error Codes Register:
The error codes register records errors that occurred during the programming of the power supply.Any
set bit in this register causes the ‘prog’ bit in the alarm status register to be set. Reading the register
does not change it’s content. The register is cleared by :DCL; command.
Notes: (*1) Since at eachAC turn off theAC fail bit is generated and stored, it is recommended to
send a :DCL; command following application ofAC voltage to the power supply, to clear the
alarm status register.
(*2) FOLD bit is automatically reset upon cancellation of FOLD protection.
(*3) OVP, OTP and ‘prog’bits reset atAC turn-off or by :DCL; command.

Reads the alarm status register content.
Returns the string AL followed by ASCII characters representing the
register’s content.
Refer to table 5-6 for the register content description.
