SETUP Configuration Commands and Queries
•
COILconst?
Returns the coil constant setting in kG/A or T/A per the selected field
units.
•
CONFigure:CURRent:LIMit <
current (A)
>
Sets the Current Limit in amperes. The Current Limit is the largest
magnitude operating current allowed during any ramping mode. For four-
quadrant power supplies, the Current Limit functions as both a positive
and negative current limit.
•
CURRent:LIMit?
Returns the Current Limit in amperes.
•
CONFigure:CURRent:RATING <
current (A)
>
Sets the magnet current rating in amperes.
•
CURRent:RATING?
Returns the current magnet rating in amperes.
•
CONFigure:PSwitch {0|1}
•
PSwitch:INSTalled?
“0” indicates that a persistent switch is not installed on the connected
superconducting magnet. “1” indicates that a persistent switch is installed.
If a persistent switch is installed, the persistent switch heated current and
time should be specified. The default value is “1”.
•
CONFigure:PSwitch:CURRent <
current (mA)
>
Sets the persistent switch heater current in mA.
•
PSwitch:AUTODetect?
Executes the auto-detection algorithm (Refer to section 3.10.2.7 on
page 54) and returns the appropriate persistent switch heater current in
mA. Note that after this value is returned, it can be entered into the Model
430 Programmer using the
CONFigure:PSwitch:CURRent
command.
•
PSwitch:CURRent?
Returns the persistent switch heater current setting in mA.
•
CONFigure:PSwitch:HeatTIME <
time (seconds)
>
Sets the time required in seconds for the persistent switch to become
resistive after the persistent switch heater has been activated.
•
PSwitch:HeatTIME?
Returns the persistent switch heated time in seconds.
