Release 3.0 105
Section 4. Remote Operation
Overview
This chapter is divided into 3 main parts:
• “Remote Analog Operation” on page 108 provides an overview of how to use
remote analog control
• “Multichannel Operation (6000 Watt only)” on page 113 gives information on
the setup and use of Multichannel functionality
• “RS-232 Operation” on page 118 explains how to send commands to the power
supply using the SCPI programming language
In addition to front panel operation, the power supply can be operated remotely
through the following interfaces:
• Analog 0 to 5V, 0 to 10V
• RS-232
• GPIB (with optional GPIB/CANbus card, only available for 6000 Watt units)
• Multichannel (with optional GPIB/CANbus card, only available for 6000 Watt
units)
The connecting ports for these interfaces are shown in, Figure 1.6 and Figure 4.1.
The remote interfaces (except for the analog programming interface) accept
commands in 2 formats: IEEE 488.2 common commands and SCPI commands.
SCPI commands that are aliases for the IEEE 488.2 common commands have been
provided for use over the multichannel interface.
