Using the Solar Array Simulator 4
Series E4360 User’s Guide 57
Set the Output Voltage
Front Panel:
SCPI Command:
Press the Voltage key.
Enter a value and press Select.
To set output 1 to 50 V:
VOLT 50,(@1)
To set all outputs to 60 V:
Set the Output Current
Front Panel:
SCPI Command:
Press the Current key.
Enter a value and press Select.
To set output 1 to 1 A:
CURR 1,(@1)
To set all outputs to 2 A:
Enable the Output
Front Panel:
SCPI Command:
Press the On/Off key.
To enable/disable both outputs
using the front panel On/Off key,
select System\Preferences\Keys.
Check On/Off affects all channels.
The All indicator will be on.
To enable only output 1:
OUTP ON,(@1)
To enable all outputs:
OUTP ON,(@1,2)
Because of internal circuit start-up procedures, Output On may take up
to 75 milliseconds to complete its function. Conversely, Output Off may
take up to 75 milliseconds to complete its function.
To mitigate these built-in delays, you can program the output to zero
volts rather than using the output on/off function.
Making Measurements
Each output channel has its own measurement capability. The output
voltage and current are measured simultaneously by acquiring a number
of samples at the selected time interval, applying a window function to
the samples, and averaging the samples.
The power-on and *RST time interval and number of samples settings
yield a measurement time of 1.7 milliseconds per reading (166 data
points at 10.24 µs intervals). The output windowing function is
Rectangular. Use the following commands to make a measurement:
Front Panel:
SCPI Command:
Select the Meter key.
Measure the output voltage or
current:
MEAS:VOLT? (@1,2)
