CONNECTION OF REMOTE I/O 7 IO IOI/O Two 9-pin “D” type connectors mounted on the rear panel provide REMOTE-INPUT- OUTPUT control and information. These connectors mate with a standard 9 pin D- sub-miniature connector provided by the user. The output mates to a male (plug) connector while the input mates to a female (receptacle) connector.
indicates what conditions activate each pin. When a terminal becomes active the relay closes thereby allowing the external voltage to operate an external device. Pins 1 and 2 provide the PASS signal. Pins 3 and 4 provide the FAIL signal. Pins 5 and 6 provide the PROCESSING signal.
Page 138
RESET switch remains active even when you connect a remote reset switch so that high voltage can be shut down from either location. The Remote File Select function gives you the capability to quickly change parameters and initiate a test remotely. You can access Ten pre-programmed test files by connecting pins 1, 6, 8 and 9 to the common pin 7, in different combinations.

NE PAS CONNECTER TENSION OU DE COURANT AUX ENTRÉES DE SIGNAL, CELA POURRAIT PROVOQUER DES DOMMAGES AU CIRCUIT DE CONTRÔLE Remote Interlock HypotULTRA is equipped with a Remote Interlock feature. Remote Interlock utilizes a set of closed contacts to enable the instrument’s output. If the Remote Interlock contacts are open the output of the instrument will be disabled.
BUS REMOTE INTERFACE GPIB/USB/RS-232 This section provides information on the proper use and configuration of the bus remote interface. The USB/RS-232 remote interface is standard on the HypotULTRA but the GPIB (IEEE-488) interface option can be substituted for the USB/RS-232 interface.
8 data bits 1 stop bit No parity This interface does not support XON/XOFF protocol or any hardware handshaking. The controller should be configured to ignore the handshaking lines DTR (pin 4), DSR (pin 6) CTS (pin 8) and RTS (pin 7). If the port cannot be configured through software to ignore these lines the handshake lines should be jumpered together in two different sets.
A maximum separation of 4 m between any two devices and an average separation of 2 m over the entire bus. A maximum total cable length of 20 m. No more than 15 device loads connected to each bus, with no less than two-thirds powered on.
USB/RS-232 / GPIB Interface Command List Echo and Response Considerations USB/RS-232 Responses The USB/RS-232 bus will automatically send any response back to the controller's input buffer. GPIB Queries and Responses The HypotULTRA GPIB bus will not send any data to the controller without being queried.

is completed successfully. *OPC? Returns an ASCII "1" after the command is executed. *WAI After the command is executed, it prevents the instrument from executing any further query or commands until the no-operation-pending flag is TRUE. *PSC {1|0} Sets the power-on status clear bit. When set to 1 the Standard Event Enable register and Status Byte Enable registers will be cleared when power is turned ON.
Page 159
An Event register report defines conditions or messages at each bit. The bits are latched and remain at an active state until the register is either Read or Cleared. Reading the Event register automatically clears the register and sets all bits to inactive state or 0.
Page 160
After the serial poll (SPOLL) is executed the RQS bit will be cleared to 0, and the remaining bits will remain unchanged. The Status Byte will not change value until the event register is read and cleared for the corresponding Status Byte bit. For example after the All Pass SRQ has been enabled, when the test(s) have finished with pass indications the instrument will set the hardware SRQ line and output the Status Byte of 41 hex.
OPTIONS Introduction This section contains a list and descriptions of available factory installed options at the time of this printing. The list of options contains an option code number that can be referenced on the data plate on the rear panel of the unit. Option Label On the rear panel of the instrument, you will find a label that contains the option code.
