30 Language Dictionary

*PSC causes a write cycle to nonvolatile memory. If *PSC is programmed to 0, then the *ESE and
*SRE commands also cause a write cycle to nonvolatile memory. The nonvolatile memory has a finite
number of write cycles (see "Table 1-2, Supplementary Characteristics"). Programs that

repeatedly write to nonvolatile memory can eventually exceed the maximum number of write cycles

and may cause the memory to fail.

*RCL


Meaning and Type
Recall Device State

Recalling a previously stored state may place hazardous voltage at the power supply output.


Description
This command restores the power supply to a state that was previously stored in memory with a *SAV command to the
specified location. The following states are recalled:

CURR[:LEV][:IMM]

OUTP[:STAT]

OUTP:REL:POL

CURR:PROT:STAT

OUTP:PROT:DEL

VOLT[:LEV][:IMM]

DIG:DATA[:VAL]

OUTP:REL[:STAT]

VOLT:PROT[:LEV]


Sending *RCL also does the following:

Forces an ABORt command before resetting any parameters (this cancels any uncompleted trigger actions).

Disables the calibration function by setting CAL:STATe to OFF.

Sets display functions as follows:

DISP[:WIND][:STATe] to ON.

DISP[:WIND]:MODE to NORMal.

DISP[:WIND]:TEXT to ' '.

Sets INIT:CONT to OFF.

Sets TRIG:SOUR to BUS.


At power turn-on, the power supply normally is returned to the factory defined turn-on state (see *RST). However, it also
may turn on to the state stored in location 0 (see Turn-On Condition under "Chapter 5 - Front Panel Operation" of the power
supply Operating Guide).
