4.22 Source Subsystem - Voltage

This subsystem programs the output voltage of the Lx/Ls Series AC source.

Subsystem Syntax

[SOURce:]

VOLTage

:ALC

[:STATe] ON | OFF | REG

Sets Auto Level Control to on (trip), off, or regulation

:SOURce INTernal | EXTernal Sets voltage sense source

[:LEVel]

[:IMMediate]

[:AMPLitude] <n>

Sets the ac rms voltage amplitude

:TRIGgered

[:AMPLitude] <n>

Sets the transient voltage amplitude

:MODE <mode>

Sets the voltage mode (FIX|STEP|PULS|LIST)

:PROTection

[:LEVel] <n>

Sets the overvoltage protection threshold

:STATe <bool>

Sets the overvoltage protection state

:RANGe <n>

Sets the voltage range

:REFerance INTernal | EXTernal

Set the voltage referance to internal or external(RPV)

:SENSe

[:SOURce] INTernal | EXTernal Sets voltage sense source

:SLEW

[:IMMediate] <n> | INFinity

Sets the voltage slew rate

:MODE <mode>

Sets voltage slew mode (FIX|STEP|PULS|LIST)

:TRIGgered <n> | INFinity

Sets the transient voltage slew rate

VOLTage:ALC[:STATe]

These commands select the various auto level control (ALC) modes. The ALC mode uses the
voltage measurement feedback to more precisely regulate the output voltage. The following ALC
modes can be selected:

ON | 0

This enables the ALC trip mode. If the programmed voltage cannot be
maintained, the output is disabled (relay opens) and a 801 Voltage error
is generated.

OFF | 1

This disables the ALC mode.

REG | 2

This enables the ALC regulation mode. The output voltage is regulated
based on the readback voltage but if regulation cannot be maintained, the
output does not trip off. Instead, a status bit is set in the Event Status
register to indicate the AC source is out of regulation. (This mode
requires firmware revision 0.98 or higher).

Note that the command format will take either alphanumeric or integer data but the query form
always returns numeric data (NR1).
