where:
IE = IEEE Indicator
18 = Primary Address
Press 2,2, ENTER. This step loads the number 22 onto the
display. Pressing the ENTER button programs the primary
address to 22 and reverts the Model 706 to the channel
mode at the previously displayed channel.
Press PRGM, 3. This step shows the user that the primary
address has indeed changed to 22.
Now that you know how, change the primary address
back to 18.
2.9.5 Program 4 Save Relay Set Up
Program 4 is used to save (store) the present relay set up for
future use. This program is capable of storing 75 separate
relay set ups. This means the user can program 75 different
relay set ups, store the set ups, then use the stored set ups
when the need arises without reprogramming.
Program 4 is very useful in a situation where the instrument
and/or experiment is going to be shut down for a period of
time and the user does not want to reprogram the relay set up
when power is returned to the unit. The program is also
helpful when the user has programmed one relay set up and
needs to go to another completely different set up without
destroying or losing the existing set up. In this case it's possi-
ble to program one relay set up and store it with Program 4,
then program a different set up and store it with Program 4.
This way the user has both relay set ups stored for further
use.
NOTE
The Model 706 can only use one relay set up at a
time, they cannot be used simultaneously.
As an example of using Program 4, program the Model 706
for 10 channels with the odd numbered channels closed and
the even numbered channels open. When the set up is com-
plete, save the set up by using Program 4. Use the following
procedures to implement this example:
1. Press RESET. Selects the channel mode and reverts the
instrument to the programmed first channel.
2. Press 0, 0, 1, FIRST. Selects channel 1 as the first chan-
nel.
3. Press 0, 1, 0, LAST, Selects channel 10 as the last chan-
nel.
4. Press RESET. Reverts to the programmed first channel.
5. Press CLOSE. Closes presently displayed channel.
6. Press CHANNEL,
CHANNEL,
CLOSE. Advances the
Model 706 to channel 3 and closes it.
7. Press CHANNEL,
CHANNEL,
CLOSE. Advances the
Model 706 to channel 5 and closes it.
8. Press CHANNEL,
CHANNEL,
CLOSE. Advances
the
Model 706 to channel 7 and closes it.
9. Press CHANNEL,
CHANNEL,
CLOSE. Advances the
Model 706 to channel 9 and closes it.
10. Press PRGM, 4. Selects program mode, selects Program
4 and displays the following:
11. Press 1, ENTER. Select the relay set up 1 to be stored and
when ENTER is pressed the set up is stored in location
SAVOl . The display is then reverted to the channel mode
at the previously displayed channel.
To verify that the relay set up has been stored use the follow-
ing procedure:
1. Press RESET. Reset to the programmed first channel and
opens all relays.
2. Press PRGM, 5. Selects program mode and also Program
5.
3. Press 0, 1, ENTER. Selects location 01 and recalls the set
up.
4. Press CHANNEL nine times and notice that the odd
numbered channels are all closed and the even numbered
channels are all open. This verifies that relay set up was
indeed stored using Program 4.
For another test of the relay set up, shut off power to the
Model 706 for a few minutes. Turn the instrument back on
and press PRGM, 5,0, 1, ENTER. Notice that the odd chan-
nels are closed and the even channels are open. Thus, even
when power to the instrument was shut off the relay set up
remained in memory.
To store an additional relay set up, program the set up and
press PRGM, 4, 0, 2, ENTER. This action saves the relay set
up without disturbing the previously stored set up. This can
be done with up to 75 separate set ups.
The factory set values of Program 4 are all channels open and
channel 1 is the programmed first and last channel.
NOTE
Program 4 saves the entire relay set up program-
med on the Model 706. It does not save just the
relay set up between the programmed first and
last channels.
Program 4 also works in the
matrix mode.
2.9.6 Program 5 Recall Relay Set Up
Program 5 is used to recall a previously stored relay set up.
Program 4 and 5 work in conjunction with each other. Pro-
gram 4 is used to store a relay set up while Program 5 is used
to recall the relay set up that was stored using Program 4.
Program 5 also recalls the programmed first and last channels
along with the relay set up that was stored in the example of
Program 4.
In the example of Program 4, 10 channels were selected with
the odd channels closed and the even channels open. The set
2-21
