Specifications
Language
Refer to CPI 6900K4 Series data sheets for detailed specifications of the basic unit. This data sheet covers
only those specifications which apply to the interface itself.

• Helix Fault
• Thermal Fault
Data Interface IEEE Std. 488-1978. Driver and receiver circuits are fully Bus compatible.
Receivers contain Bus terminating resistors and have 500 mV hysteresis.
Drivers are open collector devices, capable of driving up to 14 other Bus
compatible devices. Power up/down protection is included to prevent transmitting
invalid data to the Bus or holding the Bus when power is off.
Format Sixteen lines, eight for data and eight for control and status messages. Data
transfer is byte serial using a three-wire handshake per IEEE-488 Standard.
Address Capability Unit recognizes 31 primary addresses (address 0 through 30) or 31 secondary
addresses with a fixed primary address of 17 (address 1700 through 1730).
Interface Handshake
Repertoire:
CPI Simplified A simplified version of CIIL. All commands enclosed in brackets are deleted. In
Language (CSL) addition, the SRQ function is enabled allowing serial and parallel polling as well
as the “D” command status request.
Control Interface Compatible per proposed MATE System Control Interface Standard No. 2806763
Intermediate Language Rev. B. Several non-CIIL approved noun modifiers have been defined as required
(CIIL) by a TWTA. CIIL required commands are indicated herein enclosed by brackets [ ].
Listener Operation
Codes and Statements
Set-Up Statements
Set-Up to Standby FNC [SGC :CHØ SET GAIN 50 SET] VLST CR [LF]
If this command is received during the ON mode, high voltage will be switched
OFF and the amplifier placed in Standby; i.e., heater ON, high voltage OFF.
If this command is received when the heater is OFF, the heater will be switched
ON and the amplifier will switch to Standby at the end of the Heater Time Delay
period.
Set-Up to ON FNC [SGC :CHØ SET GAIN 50 SET] VLON CR [LF]
If this command is received when the amplifier is in Standby, the High Voltage
will be switched ON.
If this command is received when the amplifier is still in Heater Time Delay, High
Voltage will be switched ON at the end of the delay period.
If this command is received when the heater is OFF, the heater will be switched
ON and the amplifier will switch to High Voltage ON at the end of the Heater Time
Delay period.
