8.2.12 Examples – APE Query Commands
The TLK header will setup the AC Power System to talk data. The TLK header will setup the AC
Power System to report a programmed output parameter if the program header is the argument for
the TLK header.
To setup the AC Power System to report a measured value, attach a measurement header as the
TLK argument. The measurement headers are VLT, CUR, PWR, APW and PWF with an A, B or C
extension and FQM with no extension.
Note: Unlike the California Instruments L Series controllers, sending a TLK XXX command to the Ls
Controller will not cause the front panel to display the measurement screen. This is due to the
different measurement screen layout and organization of the Ls series controller versus the L series
controller.
The following string will setup the AC Power System to measure the phase A power output when it is
talk addressed:
TLK PWR A
All arguments for the TLK header are shown in Table 3-13. Table 3-14 shows an example response
for all TLK arguments with no A, B or C extension. For 1-phase systems, all responses will only
include the phase A value. For 3-phase systems, if the TLK argument includes the A, B or C
extension, the response message will be only for the indicated phase.
A GPIB Service Request (SRQ) will be generated at the completion of a measurement if the SRQ2
header is included with the TLK string. The following string will cause the Service Request to be
generated when the power system has finished the power factor measurement.
TLK PWF SRQ2
Example talk responses are shown in Table 8-5.
