Service
Service request is a uniline message asserted by the power supply at power on and
Request
for fault conditions. Ten (10) power supply conditions are defined as faults: CV, CC,
OV, OTP, SD, FOLD, ERR, ACF, OPF, and SNSP. See "Accumulated Status, Status,
and Fault Registers" on page 46 for more information. Power ON (PON) can also be
flagged in the fault register if the supply's rear panel power on service request
(PON SRQ) switch is set to ON. See "Power On Service Request (PON SRQ)" on
page 21.
Enabling or disabling a condition from asserting service request does not affect the
condition within the power supply, nor the external status indicators.
