Enable (REN)
Command
Release 3.1
In local mode operation, you set the voltage and current output levels and the OVP
trip level with controls located on the front panel. Refer to the operating manual for
a description of the functions available at the front panel.
While in local mode operation, you can change power supply control to remote
mode by ensuring that REN is ON, then sending any software command and OUT
ON to restore the output. Return to local mode by pressing the front panel LOCAL
button, unless Local Lockout is in effect. If LLO is in effect, use the GTL command
to send the power supply into local mode, or use the REN OFF command to turn
off LLO and return the power supply to local mode.
Example:
Press the LOCAL button
Id?
Press the LOCAL button
You can use the Remote Enable command to toggle between local mode and
remote mode. The default setting at startup is REN ON. With the remote enable
command set at REN ON, you can return the power supply to remote mode
whenever you send any command from the computer. Any time that you change
from local to remote mode during a session, the output is programmed to turn off,
since the remote mode settings may be different from the local mode settings. Send
the OUT ON command to restore the output.
You can turn off Remote Enable and move power supply control to the front panel
by sending the REN OFF command. If the Local Lockout condition is in effect,
sending the REN OFF command will turn off the LLO condition before sending
the unit into local mode.
To check whether the power supply is remote enabled, use the REN? query
command.
Example:
REN ON
VSET 10;ISET 2
