──────────────────────────────────────────────────── 12.3 Interface Outline 12.3.1 Messages Data received or sent by the interface is called a message. The following are the message types: Command messages Program messages Query messages Messages Response messages Execution confirmation messages (RS-232C only) Of these, program messages are those received by the unit from the controller, while response messages are those sent from the unit to the controller.
──────────────────────────────────────────────────── 12.3.2 Command Syntax The names of commands for the 3194 are as far as possible mnemonic. Furthermore, all commands have a long form, and an abbreviated short form. In command references in this manual, the short form is written in upper case letters, and then this is continued in lower case letters so as to constitute the long form.
(3) LF with EOI (GP-IB only), as message terminators. To terminate a response message, the 3194 always provides the appropriate EOI signal, and also sends a terminating character sequence. By the use of the "TRANsmit:TERMinator" command either of the following can be...
Further, if the accuracy of a numerical value exceeds the range with which the 3194 can deal, it is rounded off. (5 and above is rounded up; 4 and below is rounded down). ① NR1 format: integer data (+12, -23, 34) ②...
──────────────────────────────────────────────────── For the integer values as a parameter of the following commands, the decimal fractions are rounded, but for the ":CURRent [channel]:RANGe" command for current range setting in range 0.2A and 0.5 A, the second decimal place is rounded. The real numbers as a parameter of the following commands are rounded to the fifth decimal place.
・When the unit is reset by a key press. ・When a query error is generated. The 3194 has an output queue of 2000 bytes capacity. If the response messages overflow this limit of 2000 bytes, a query error is generated, and the output queue is cleared.
──────────────────────────────────────────────────── 12.3.11 Status Model In its implementation of the serial polling function using service requests, the 3194 employs the status model specified by IEEE 488.2. The term "event" refers to any phenomenon which generates a service request. Generation of service requests...
The status byte register is an 8-bit register whose contents are output from the 3194 to the controller, when serial polling is being performed. If even only one bit in the status byte register has changed from 0 to 1 (provided that it is a bit which has been set in the service request enable register as a bit which can be used), then the MSS bit is set to 1. ...
──────────────────────────────────────────────────── 12.3.13 Event Registers (1) Standard event status register (SESR) The standard event status register is an 8-bit register. If any bit in the standard event status register is set to 1 (after masking by the standard event status enable register), bit 5 (ESB) of the status byte register is set to 1. Status byte register (STB) bit 5 Standard event status register (SESR)

1. ・Execution is impossible due to an abnormality inside the 3194. Query error. This bit is set to 1 when a query error is detected by the output queue control.
Page 142
The event status registers are numbered 0 to 2, and are each 8-bit registers; they correspond to bits ESB0 to ESB3 of the status byte. Each bit has a particular 3194 event allocated to it. The constituent bits are masked by the corresponding event status enable register, then the summary (logical OR) is copied to one of bits 0 to 2 (ESB0- ESB2) of the status byte (STB).
Page 143
──────────────────────────────────────────────────── (4) Event status registers 0 (ESR0) This register is used principally to monitor start and stop processing events. The following commands are used for reading the event status register 0, and for setting the event status enable register 0 and for reading it. Reading event status register 0 *ESR0? Setting event status enable register 0...
Page 144
──────────────────────────────────────────────────── (5) Event status registers 1 (ESR1) This register is used to monitor the input units for out of range values. Bits 1 to 6 correspond to channels 1 to 6. The bits are summaries of the event status registers 11 to 16 (ESR11 to ESR16), which show the out-of-range information for each input unit.
Page 145
──────────────────────────────────────────────────── (6) Event status registers 2 (ESR2) This register monitors for out-of-range inputs to the 9605-01 HARMONIC MEASURMENTS UNIT. Its value is therefore all zeros unless the optional 9605-01 is installed. Bits 1 to 6 correspond to the harmonic analysis boards for channels 1 to 6. However, since a maximum of three harmonic analysis boards can be selected simultaneously, no more than three bits can ever be set.
Page 146
──────────────────────────────────────────────────── (7) Event status registers 11 to 26 (ESR11 to 26) These registers are event status registers indicating out-of-range inputs for input unit channels 1 to 6 and harmonic analysis board input channels 1 to 6. A summary of these registers is reflected in ESR1 and ESR2. The following commands are used for reading the event status register, and for setting the event status enable register and for reading it.
──────────────────────────────────────────────────── (8) Event status register F (ESRF) This register is an event status register indicating out-of-range inputs for frequency inputs. A summary of this register is reflected in bit OF of ESR1. The following commands are used for reading the event status register, and for setting the event status enable register and for reading it.

──────────────────────────────────────────────────── 19.4 Internal Block Diagram of the 3194 The internal construction of the 3194 is shown below. The broken lines indicate options. When the optional input units (9600, 9601, and 9602) are used, the voltage (U), current (I), and active power (P) are converted to DC voltages by analog computation in the input unit, and the waveform peak value is detected by an analog peak hold function.

APPENDIX 1 ──────────────────────────────────────────────────── Appendix 3P3W wiring Diagram for the example using the option 9605 Voltage Load ① ② ① Voltage is measured between lines and current is measured with phase, so U2 is phased 60°from U1. When the load is purely resistive, I1 lags U1 by 30°, and I2 leads U2 by 30°.
