Example: Configuring a Single Drive Channel
The following example illustrates the sequence of commands to configure a
single drive channel with continuous drive. In the example, the operations
are directed to channel 1 on remote module 3.
The drive source must be disabled before configuring pulse or paired
modes. The channel is then un- paired and the pulse mode disabled
(enables continuous drive). Power supply recovery time and settling time
is then set to 10 ms and 12 ms, respectively. Verify is then enabled.
The switches are set to a
CLOSe
default state and
OCOLlector
drive with
an
EXTernal
power supply is selected. The channel is closed. The final
query of the channel state involves querying both verified state and
whether channel drive is occurring.

The

query returns a 0 if the channel is not
being driven and a 1 if the channel is being driven.
