Condition on ( ) and that configuration is recalled, a
warning screen (See Menu Map, Section 3.7.9) will be
displayed
* . The user is given the option to press Yes (F1)
to enable or No (F4) to disable the output. All other
settingwill be programmed according to the recalled
configuration regardless of this choice.
* Note: The warning screen will not appear if the Output is already enabled.
3.8.4 Sequencing
I NTRODUCTION
The SGI sequencing function allows the user to set up the supply to
automatically run a series of voltage, current and power mode operations.
This is especially useful for setting up the supply to test to compliance
standards, or unburdening the test computer in automated testing
applications. Through RS-232, IEEE-488 or Ethernet, an external
computer can trigger the sequences (see SG Series Programming
Manual). Up to 50 sequences may be stored, with each sequence
containing up to 20 individual steps. With the ability to string sequences
together and an extensive list of step functions such as ramping, looping,
goto and subroutine calls, the user can define a nearly infinite variety of
test sequences.
The following sections will assist the user in programming, testing and
running a sequence from the front panel.
B ASIC S EQUENCE O PERATION
To access the main Sequencing menu press F3 from
Home Menu Page 1. From here any one of 50
sequences may be selected. The default names for
sequences are TESTxx where xx is a number from
01 to 50. Using SCPI commands via the RS-232,
IEEE-488, or Ethernet interface, the user may
rename these test sequences with meaningful
names of up to 15 characters (see SG Series
Programming Manual).
Note:
DO NOT use non-sequence-related SCPI commands while performing
sequence operations.
Note:
DO NOT use sequence SCPI commands as stand-alone commands
outside a sequence.
