──────────────────────────────────────────────────── 7.3.2 Connecting the Cables CAUTION The input logic level is 0 to 5 V. To avoid damage to the product, do not apply voltage other than this level. Example of connecting The MASTER CLK, SYNC CLK and RUN/STOP signals are each connected by daisy chaining the units together.
MASTER CLK IN and SYNC CLK IN will be ignored. SYNC Master Set the 7075 to Master. The MASTER CLK and SYNC CLK signals will be output, and signals at the MASTER CLK IN and SYNC CLK IN will be ignored.
GP-IB/RS-232C Interface Implementation 8.1 Overview (1) Compliance and reference standards The 7075 includes the GP-IB interface as a standard feature. Compliance standard: IEEE Standard 488.1-1987 Reference standard: IEEE Standard 488.2-1987 (2) Codes used for device-dependent messages The following are the codes used for device-dependent messages.
──────────────────────────────────────────────────── 8.2 Operations Never connect another device to operate as controller when the WARNING unit's control function is in use, as this could cause malfunctions and, in the worst case, damage to the unit. 8.2.1 Settings of the GP-IB Interface Set the function, address, transmit terminator on the GP-IB screen.
Example: When sending the messages from the personal computer to the 7075. :OSET:AMPL 1,10.000 This message sets the amplitude of channel 1 of the 7075 to 10.000 V. Query program messages Orders for responses relating to the results of operation, results of self-test, or the state of device settings.
Page 80
It generates response messages in the long form (when headers are enabled) and in upper case letters. The names of commands for the 7075 is as far as possible mnemonic. Furthermore, all commands have a long form, and an abbreviated short form.
Page 81
──────────────────────────────────────────────────── Query program These are for commands used for interrogating the unit about the result of an headers operation or about a setting. These can be recognized as queries by a question mark appearing after the program header. The structure of the header is identical to that of a command program header, with "?"...
Page 82
Further, if the accuracy of a numerical value exceeds the range with which the 7075 can deal, it is rounded off. (5 and above is rounded up; 4 and below is rounded down.) NR1 format: integer data...
Message bytes usable by the unit are as follows. (1) Address command group GTL ( Go To Local ): Enables local operation of the 7075. SDC ( Selected Device Clear ): Sets the 7075 to initialized state. (2) Universal command group LLO ( Local Lock-Out ): Disables local operation of the 7075.
──────────────────────────────────────────────────── 8.2.6 Status Model In its implementation of the serial polling function using service requests, the 7075 employs the status model specified by IEEE 488.2. The term "event" refers to any phenomenon which generates a service request. Status byte register (STB)
──────────────────────────────────────────────────── 8.2.7 Status Byte Register Each bit of the status byte is a summary (logical OR) of the event register corresponding to that bit. Further, the status byte and each event register has an enable register corresponding to it, and according to the setting of this enable register (which starts off at zero when the power is turned on) it is possible to mask the service requests originating from each event.
When a command which has been received contains a syntactic or semantic error, this bit is set to 1. Bit 5 When a command is received that is not in the 7075 command set There is a mistake in a program header. The number of data parameters is wrong.
8.2.9 The Input Buffer and the Output Queue (1) Input buffer The 7075 has an input buffer of 256 bytes capacity. Messages which are received are put into this buffer and executed in order. When more than 256 bytes of data are sent so the buffer becomes full, the GP-IB bus enters the waiting state until buffer space becomes available.
(3) Command Reference Description The command reference lists common commands first, followed by 7075- specific commands. The 7075-specific commands are categorized in the following order: environment & miscellaneous settings, environment settings and self diagnostics, output settings, disk modes and others.
* TST? Requests execution of, and queries the result of, the self test. Syntax Function Causes the 7075 to perform the self test, * TST? and returns the result thereof as a numerical data value in NR1 format (0 or...
Page 90
Function Forces the unit to wait until all previous * WAI commands have executed. Note All 7075-specific commands are sequential type, so the WAI command has no effect. However, it is included for compliance with the IEEE-488.2 1987 standard. *CLS Clears the status byte register and the event registers.
Page 91
──────────────────────────────────────────────────── *ESE (GP-IB only) Sets the standard event status enable register. Function Syntax Loads the effective format of the *ESE <NR1> Standard Event Status Register (SESR) <NR1> = 0 to 255 into the Standard Event Status Enable Example Register (SESER). Transmission *ESE 36 Decimals are rounded off.
Page 92
──────────────────────────────────────────────────── *SRE (GP-IB only) Sets the service request enable register (SRER). Function Syntax Loads the effective format of the Status *SRE <NR1> Byte Register (STB) into the Service <NR1> = 0 to 255 Request Enable Register (SRER). Example Decimals are rounded off. *SRE 33 Transmission Bits 0 and 5 of SRER are set to 1.

If damage is suspected, check the "Troubleshooting" section before contacting your dealer or Hioki representative. If the unit has been subject to moisture, or if oil and dust have accumulated in the unit interior, the danger of electrical shock or fires resulting from the deterioration of insulation increases greatly.
HIOKI representative. When sending the unit for repair, to prevent damage in transit pack well. Insert cushioning material so that the 7075 cannot move within the package. Be sure to include details of the problem. HIOKI cannot bear any responsibility for damage that occurs during shipment.
