Page 40: Figure 2-2 Maximum Load Wire Length For 1 V Line Drop
Installation Maximum Load Wiring Length For Operation With Sense Lines Figure 2-2 Maximum Load Wire Length for 1 V Line Drop Noise and Impedance Effects To minimize noise pickup or radiation, use shielded twisted pair wiring of the shortest possible length for load sense wires. Connect the shield to the power supply chassis.
Page 41: Step 5: Performing Functional Tests
Step 5: Performing Functional Tests The functional test procedures include: • Power-on and front panel functional checks • Voltage mode operation and current mode operation checks. For information on local operation, see “Local Operation” on page 3–1 for adjusting front panel controls and settings. Powering the Power Supply On/Off To power on the power supply: 1.
Page 42: Voltage And Current Mode Operation Checks
Installation Voltage and Current Mode Operation Checks To perform the voltage and current mode operation checks: 1. Ensure that the front panel power switch is in the On position and the output is disconnected. 2. If the OUTPUT ON/OFF button is illuminated, press the button to turn off the output.
Page 43: Step 6: Connecting Loads
Step 6: Connecting Loads This section describes how to connect loads to the power supply for both single and multiple loads. WARNING: Shock hazard There is a shock hazard at the power supply output when operating at an output greater than 40 V. To protect personnel against accidental contact with hazardous voltages, ensure that the load and its connections have no accessible live parts.
Page 44: Inductive Loads
Installation Inductive Loads To prevent damage to the power supply from inductive kickback, connect a diode across the output. The diode must have a voltage rating at least 20% greater than the power supply's output voltage and have a current rating greater than or equal to the power supply's output rating.
Page 45: Connecting Multiple Loads
Connecting Multiple Loads The proper connection of distributed loads is an important aspect of power supply use. The common method of connection is a radial load connection. Power is connected to each load individually from a single pair of terminals designated as the positive and negative distribution terminals.
Page 46: Step 7: Connecting Remote Sensing
Installation Step 7: Connecting Remote Sensing WARNING: Shock hazard There is a potential shock hazard at the sense connectors when using a power supply at an output greater than 40 V. Select wiring with a minimum insulation rating equivalent to the maximum output voltage of the power supply for use as local sense jumpers or for remote sense wires.
Page 47 3. Connect one end of the shielded twisted pair wire to the chassis ground point on the power supply. 4. Connect the positive sense line (+SNS) from the positive regulation point as close as possible to the load terminals to pin J1.1. 5.

Page 49: Local Operation
Local Operation Chapter 3, Local Operation, provides the procedures for local (front panel) operation such as: • Configuring settings. • Operating in constant voltage mode and constant current mode. • Using the protection features. • Using multiple power supplies.
Page 50: Introduction
Local Operation Introduction Once you have installed the power supply and connected both the AC input power and the load (covered in “Installation” on page 2–1), the power supply is ready for local operation. To turn the power supply on, see “Powering the Power Supply On/Off”...
Page 51: Table 3-1 Select And Set From The Front Panel
Fine adjustment Pressing the Rotary knob/Enter button to change the mode to fine adjustment mode provides the ability to manipulate the last significant mode digit. Once the exact desired value for the setting has been selected, press the Rotary knob/Enter button to commit the value to the unit. The coarse and fine adjustment modes are used for setting the voltage and current set points, OVP and UVP settings.
Page 52: Navigating The Menu System
Local Operation Navigating the Menu System The menu system of the XTR follows a select and set model with the exception of the VOL and CUR modes. See “Setting VOL and CUR Modes”. The general procedure for setting up the features in the select and set model is: 1.
Page 53 • When the CUR mode is selected, the current set point will blink in the output current display. 2. Use the Rotary knob/Enter button to adjust the set point. The adjustments you make to the set point affect the opposing output value (voltage when in CUR mode or current when in VOL), which will update in the non-blinking display.
Page 54: Normal Display Mode And Inactivity Timeout

Page 58: Standard Operation
Local Operation Standard Operation The power supply can be controlled by two methods, either from the front panel or from any of the remote interfaces. Front panel control is referred to as local operation (default setting) while control via any of the remote interfaces is called remote operation.
Page 59 Output disabled The mode of operation is not determined until the output is enabled. The CV and CC mode LEDs will not indicate the mode while the output is disabled. Constant Voltage Mode Operation If the output is enabled and the configured current set point is much higher than the requirements for the attached load, then the voltage will rise until it reaches the voltage set point.
Page 60: Figure 3-3 Operating Modes
Local Operation The reverse operating mode change can also occur if the load resistance is increased to the point that the required load current drops below the I value. At that point the power supply would crossover to CV mode and the load current would be free to vary as the load resistance changed Figure 3-3 Operating Modes To set...

Local Operation Clearing Alarms Clearing Triggered and Manual Alarms To clear a triggered alarm, use one of the following methods: • Turn the power supply Off and then On. • Press and hold the Rotary knob/Enter button for 3 seconds. •...
Page 67: Front Panel Alarm Led
Clearing Automatic Alarms Some alarms will clear automatically when the condition that caused the alarm is no longer present. When an alarm automatically clears, the output voltage and current displays will return to normal, but the ALARM LED will remain illuminated to indicate that an alarm has occurred. If an automatic alarm is triggered, the normal alarm clearing procedure still applies.
Page 68: Alarm Masking
Local Operation The alarm LED will remain illuminated until the alarm is manually cleared (see “Clearing Triggered and Manual Alarms” on page 3–18) or by turning the main output on if the alarm has automatically been cleared. Alarm Masking It is possible to completely disable some alarms through the use of the alarm mask.
Page 69: Alarm Output Latching
Alarm Output Latching When an alarm is triggered, the output will be disabled with the exception of the Fan alarm. When an alarm is cleared, the alarm output latch determines if the output should be re-enabled to the state before the alarm occurred or if the output should remain in the off state.
Page 70: Setting Foldback Mode
Local Operation Setting Foldback Mode Foldback mode is used to disable the output when a transition is made between the operating modes.

Page 212: Using Scpi Commands
SCPI Command Reference Using SCPI Commands This Manual shows SCPI commands in the following format: CALibration:CURRent:LEVel {<current>|MIN|MAX} The command is expressed as a mixture of upper- and lowercase letters. The uppercase letters suggest how the command can be abbreviated into a short form.
Page 213 The following punctuation is not sent with the command string: • Braces ({ }), or curly brackets, identify a selection of choices. Choose one of the enclosed values. • Vertical bars, or pipes, ( | ) can be read as “or” and is used to separate the choices found within the braces.
Page 214: Parameter Types
SCPI Command Reference Terminating Characters Every command string must end with a terminating <new line> character. It is also acceptable to use a <carriage return> followed by a <new line>. Terminating a command string always resets the SCPI command path to the root level.
Page 215 Numeric Parameters Numeric parameters are number representations such as decimal points, optional signs, and scientific notation. Values such as MINimum and MAXimum are accepted as substitutes for numbers. When DEFault is provided as a parameter, the machine selects the default value automatically.

Page 245: Error Messages
Error Messages Appendix B, Error Messages, provides information on the error messages which may appear. Errors are placed in a queue as they are detected.
Page 246: Command Error List
Error Messages Error Messages Errors are placed in a queue as they are detected. The queue works on a first in, first out (FIFO) basis. If the queue overflows, the last error in the queue is replaced with error –350, “Queue Overflow”. When all errors have been read from the queue, further error queries return 0, “No error”.
Page 247: Execution Error List
Execution Error List An error in the range [-299, -200] indicates that an error has been detected by the instrument’s execution control block. The occurrence of any error in the class causes the execution error bit (bit 4) in the Event Status Register to be set.
