Parameter

Specification

when not uses as Trig Out. This function is mutually exclusive with the
Function Strobe output.

Function Strobe:

Active for any voltage or frequency program change. 400

µ

s pulse for voltage

or frequency change. Isolated TTL output. This function is mutually exclusive
with the Trigger Output. Same output is used for Trigger Output if Trigger
Output is programmed as part of list system.

Output Status:

Monitors status of output relay. Isolated TTL output. High if output relay is
closed, low if output relay is open.

Non volatile memory
storage:

Series I: 8 complete instrument setups and transient lists, 32 events per list.

Series II: 16 complete instrument setups and transient lists, 100 events per
list.

Waveforms

Sine (Models with Standard controller)

Sine, square, clipped, user defined (Models with Pi controller)

Transients

Voltage: drop, step, sag, surge, sweep

Frequency: step, sag, surge, sweep

Voltage and Frequency: step, sweep

IEEE-488 Interface:

SH1, AH1, T6, L3, SR1, RL2, DC1, DT1
Syntax: IEEE 488.2 and SCPI
Response time is 10 ms (typical)

RS232C Interface:

Bi-directional serial interface
9 pin D-shell connector
Handshake:

CTS, RTS

Data bits:

7, 8

Stop bits:

1,2

Baud rate:

9600 to 115,200 bps

Syntax: IEEE 488.2 and SCPI.
Note: Disconnect any USB connection when using the RS232 interface.

USB Interface:

Standard USB 1.1 peripheral.
Data transfer rate: 460,800 bps
Syntax: IEEE 488.2 and SCPI.

Note:

Use of the USB port to control more than one power source

from a single PC is not recommended, as communication may not be
reliable. Use GPIB interface for multiple power source control.

LAN Interface:

Option –LAN. When the LAN interface is installed, the RS232 interface is
disabled.

RJ45 Connector, 10BaseT, 100BaseT or 1000BaseT,
Data transfer rate: 460,800 bps
Protocol: TCP/IP.
Syntax: IEEE 488.2 and SCP
Note: Disconnect any USB connection when using the LAN interface.

Current Limit Modes:

Two selectable modes of operation:

1. Constant current mode (voltage folds back with automatic recovery)

2. Constant voltage mode with trip-off (Relays open).
