Basic Setup Procedure
This procedure can be used as a quick reference for those familiar with the
configuration requirements for the GPIB interface as installed in the DC power
supply. For those who want more information, each step refers to more detailed
procedures located in subsequent sections. Execute each step of the procedure in the
sequence given.
Table 2.1
Setup Procedure
*
This text uses National Instruments' IBIC (Interface Bus Interactive Control) program commands
developed for their GPIB interface for computer controllers as examples only.
Step # Description
Action
Reference
1
Primary Address
Selection
Use GPIB interface rear panel switches
A1 to A5 to select a unique primary
address. Setting the address identifies
the power supply to the computer
controller in a GPIB system.
See
“IEEE-488 Primary Address
Selection” on page 20
2
PON SRQ
Selection
Use the rear panel SRQ switch to select
the state of the Power ON Service
Request
See
“Power On Service Request
(PON SRQ)” on page 21
3
Remote/Local
Operation
Use the rear panel PON REM switch to
select remote or local startup of the
power supply.
See
“Remote/Local Operation” on
page 21
4
IEEE-488
Controller
Connection
Connect the IEEE-488 bus to the supply
at connector J8.
See
“IEEE-488 Controller
Connection” on page 23
5
Power ON
Power on the unit. Before proceeding,
check to ensure that the green REM
LED on the front panel is on.
See
“Internal PCB Jumper
Selections” on page 23
and
“User
Signals” on page 25
for information
about Local/Remote OVP, TTL
Shutdown, and auxiliary connector
J21 user signals.
6
Configure
Computer
Controller
Configure the controller to match the
power supply identification and
characteristics using one of the available
programs.
One such program is IBCONF
(Interface Bus Configuration) from
National Instruments. This program
is used here as an example only.
7
Test
Test the link by communicating with the
power supply.
Example: VSET2;ISET1
This command string sets power
supply voltage to 2V and its current
limit to 1A.
Example: ibwrt "vset2;iset1" As
above, using IBIC. *
