A-5
A.2.2.10 Reset
The Reset function sets the power supply to its power on state. Voltage and current are set to 0,
and relays are opened. If the channel # is set to 0, all power supplies are reset, otherwise, only
the selected channel is reset.
A.2.2.11 RevisionQuery
The RevisionQuery function returns the firmware revision of the Kepco TMA VXI-27 power sup-
ply controller and the revision of the Kepco Instrument driver.

A.2.2.12 SelfTest
The SelfTest function opens all output relays, and programs all power supplies to their maximum
levels, then resets the outputs to 0. If any errors in output occurred, the channel number of the
failed supplies are returned, otherwise a 0 is returned. If failures occur, the Questionable Event
register must be read from each failed channel, using the GetStatus function, to determine the
cause of failure and to clear the SelfTest error. This does not apply to the currently selected
channel, since the register value for that channel is automatically returned by the self test func-
tion itself.
A.2.2.13 Set
The Set function sets the output voltage and current values of the power supply, as determined
by the load. The load determines if the supply will be in Constant Voltage or Constant Current
mode. See also mode.
