Manual Operation Manual Operation Introduction DC Power Supply can be operated manually or remotely via GPIB controller or RS-232C or APG interface which is described in Chapter 5 and section 3.3.1.3. The manual operation for using the front panel keyboard or rotary knob to input the data is described in this chapter. NOTICE If the operation mode is not saved before users power the instrument off, the operation mode is manual (default) when power it on next time.
Programmable DC Power Supply 62000P Series Operating & Programming Manual Following is the way to set the current (CC MODE): Press “ CURRENT ” and the rest settings are same as voltage as Figure 3-2 shows. (Be noted that in order to remain the output in CC mode the load current setting must be larger than the current, otherwise the output current will not equal to the set current.)

GPIB interface is an 8-bit parallel data bus that synchronizes with the host bus commands under the communication rate up to 1 Mbytes.

Remote Operation 5.3.2 Numerical Data Formats The numerical data format of 62012P DC Power Supply is listed in Table 5-5. Numerical data can be added to the suffix to distinguish data while the multiplier can be placed prior the suffix. Table 5-6 lists the suffix used by 62012P DC Power Supply and Table 5-7 lists the multiplier.
Programmable DC Power Supply 62000P Series Operating & Programming Manual 5.3.5 Basic Definition 5.3.5.1 Command Tree Structure The commands of the DC Power Supply are based on a hierarchical structure, also known as a tree system. In order to obtain a particular command, the full path to that command must be specified.
Remote Operation 5.3.5.7 Program Message Unit Program message unit represents a single command, programming data, or query. Example: VOLT?, OUTPut ON. 5.3.5.7.1 Program Message Unit Separator (;) The separator (semicolon ;) separates the program message unit elements from one another in a program message.
Programmable DC Power Supply 62000P Series Operating & Programming Manual may arise, because the prior state of the 62012P DC Power Supply will affect the response of a coupled parameter to its programming. For example, assuming that the current was set to 20A and a new state is required to change the voltage to 80V.
