Multichannel Setup
If you use the multichannel (VMCB) function, you can connect one PC to up to 31
PWR-01s to construct a virtual multichannel power supply system. This is useful
when you want to synchronize the operation of multiple PWR-01s or minimize the
number of communication ports that are required.
■ Multichannel connections
Set one PWR-01 as the master unit (VMCB master unit), and then connect this
PWR-01 to the PC through the LAN, RS232C, or USB interface. The other PWR01s are slave units (VMCB slave units). Use a switching hub or broadband router to
connect the slave units to the master unit through the LAN interface. Use standard
LAN cables (category 5).

■ Multichannel settings
On the master unit, congure the settings for the connection with the PC, and set
the channel and domain.
On the slave units, congure the LAN settings, and set the channels and domains.
PWR-01s that have the same domain number perform multichannel operations
as a single VMCB network. You can connect up to 31 PWR-01s to a single VMCB
network.
Multichannel uses Multicast DNS (mDNS). Under Hostname / Service on the LAN
CONFIG page accessed through a Web browser, the Enable mDNS check box
must be selected. By default, this check box is selected.
For datails of CONFIG settings, see the PWR-01 user's manual.
- Note -
• Within the VMCB network, channel 0 is assigned to the master unit and all other
channel numbers are assigned to slave units. Do not assign the same channel
to two different PWR-01s on the same VMCB network.
• Congure all PWR-01s so that they have the same LAN settings (CF61: IP
address assignment method, CF67: VMCB domain number).
Slave unit settings
Normally, you should set DHCP and AUTO IP to ON to set the IP address automatically. For details on the LAN settings, see LAN under Interface Setup.
Congure all PWR-01s on the same VMCB network so that they have the same
CONFIG settings (CF61: IP address assignment method, CF67: VMCB domain
number).
The remote interface setting (CF40) is not valid on slave units.
Press CONFIG several times until CF60 is displayed.

Caution
The LAN interface can be accessed from any place on the network. If necessary,
congure the security settings. You can apply password protection for security,
and you can restrict the IP addresses to limit the hosts.
Turning power on
First turn the slave units on, and then turn the master unit on. If the PWR-01s are
organized in a rack system, turn all the units on at the same time. If you turn the
master unit on rst, the slave units will not be detected correctly.
When a slave unit turns on, all its LEDs light, and then the following sequence is
displayed: the rated voltage and rated current, the rmware version number, and
then the build number. Each item is displayed for approximately 1 second. Then,
the slave unit displays "I-F SLAV" and enters the wait state. When the PWR-01 is
designated as a slave unit by the master unit, the slave unit enters the operation
wait state.
The slave unit will not stop displaying "I-F SLAV" until it receives the slave designation from the master unit. Check the CONFIG parameters (CF61, CF67, and CF68)
and the LAN connection. If you change the CONFIG parameters, reboot the PWR-
01.
When the master unit turns on, all its LEDs light, and then the following sequence
is displayed: the rated voltage and rated current, the rmware version number, and
then the build number. Each item is displayed for approximately 1 second. Then,
the master unit displays "FIND CH" and searches for slave units. When the master
unit nishes searching, it enters the operation wait state.
Checking the multichannel conguration
To check the multichannel conguration, send the INSTrument:CATalog? query.
You cannot check the conguration from the panel.
KIKUSUI Electronics Corp.PWR-01 Interface Manual
Overview of Command
Overview of Command
The information that is exchanged between the controller (PC) and the device
(PWR-01 series) is called a message.
The PWR-01 uses the SCPI language for the messages.
There are two types of messages, commands that are sent from the PC to the
PWR-01 and responses that are sent from the PWR-01 to the PC.
Command Hierarchy
SCPI commands are ASCII-based commands designed for test and measurement
devices. The command hierarchy is structured around the common root or node,
which is the construction block of the SCPI subsystem. A command consists of a
program header, parameters, and punctuation.
The hierarchy is explained using the SOURce subsystem as an example.
Program header ParameterHierarchy of node
SOUR: Root node
CURRSecond level
:LIM Third level
:AUTO <boolean> Fourth level
VOLT Second level
:EXTThird level
:RANG<character> Fourth level
:SOUR<character> Fourth level
A higher node is separated from a lower node using a colon (:).
Command Syntax
This manual denotes SCPI commands using the following format.
SCPI commands can be issued using the short form. The short form of a SCPI
command is the section of the command written in uppercase.
SCPI commands can be sent in the long form or short form. Since SCPI commands
are not case-sensitive, CURR, Curr, and curr are all accepted as the short form of
CURRent. In the long form, CURRENT, Current, and current are all acceptable.
• A space is required between the program header section and the parameter sec-
tion.
• Multiple parameters, when available, are concatenated using commas.
• Commands are concatenated using semicolons (compound command).
CURRent:SSTart:FALL 25MS;RISE 25MS
In the second command, CURRent:SSTart: is omitted. This is because the path is
set to CURRent:SSTart: by the rst command CURRent:SSTart:FALL.
This compound command is the same as entering the following commands.
CURRent:SSTart:FALL 25MS
CURRent:SSTart:RISE 25MS
An error occurs if a node that is not dened in the current path is designated.
Commands of different subsystems can be concatenated using a colon and a semicolon together.
This compound command contains two root nodes, SYSTem and VOLTage.
When the second or subsequent command starts with a colon, the path specied
by the previous command is cleared.
• The maximum number of characters that can be transmitted in a single line is
512.
KIKUSUI Electronics Corp.PWR-01 Interface Manual
Overview of Command
■ Special symbols
Special symbols used in this manual to describe SCPI commands are dened below.
• Characters and numbers delimited by "|" in braces indicate that one of the items
is to be selected.
Do not include the braces in the actual program.
• The characters <> indicate program data.
Do not write <> in the actual program.
• Brackets indicate option data.
When option data is not sent with the program, the default value is applied.
Do not write [ ] in the actual program.
■ Queries
The device settings or status can be queried.
To make a query, add a question mark at the end of the program header section.
If a query has parameters, enter a space after the question mark followed by the
parameters.
CURRent? MIN
Response
A response returned as an answer to a query. It is a message that is always sent
from the device to the PC. The status of the device or measured values are transmitted to the PC.
■ Program terminator
All commands must be terminated using a valid terminator.
RS232CUSBLAN
VXI-11, HiSLIP SCPI-RAW
receptionLFLF or EOMLF or ENDLF
transmission LF or CR+LF LF+EOM LF+END LF
When a command string is terminated, the path is reset to the root level.
- Note CR (ASCII 0x0D) is not a terminator.
■ Common commands
The IEEE-488.2 and SCPI standards contain a set of common commands for reset, self-test, and other functions. These common commands always start with an
asterisk. The commands may have one or multiple parameters.
- Note When transmitting two queries in separate lines, read the response to the rst
query before transmitting the second line.
KIKUSUI Electronics Corp.PWR-01 Interface Manual
Overview of Command
Parameters
The parameter format of SCPI is derived from the program parameter format dened in IEEE 488.2.
The representation system of the program data that is used on the PWR-01 is indicated below.
■ Non-numeric parameters
Character string data (String)
Used when a series of ASCII characters are requested.
Be sure to enclose a string in single or double quotation marks. The start and end
quotation marks must match.
SYSTem:LANGuage "SCPI"
If you wish to use a quotation mark as a part of the string, enter two quotation
marks consecutively (with no characters in between).
Character data
Character data is used when only a limited number of values are available for the
program setting. Responses are returned in the short form.
TRIGger:TRANSient:SOURce {BUS|IMMediate}
Boolean data
Boolean data expresses a 1 or 0 condition or an ON or OFF condition. Responses
are returned as 1 or 0
OUTPut {ON|OFF|1|0}
■ Numeric parameters
NR1
Represents an integer.
Details are given in the IEEE 488.2 Standard Digital Interface for Programmable
Instrumentation.
If a 0 is returned in the response data, it is returned as +0.
NR2
Represents a real number (oating point).
Details are given in the IEEE 488.2 Standard Digital Interface for Programmable
Instrumentation.
NR3
Represents a real number (exponential).
Details are given in the IEEE 488.2 Standard Digital Interface for Programmable
Instrumentation.
The value +3.80000+E02 is returned for the response data 380. The number of digits to the right of the decimal is 5.
NRf
NRf is a generic term that includes NR1, NR2, and NR3.
Numeric
A numeric parameter such as a decimal point, optional prex, or measurement unit.
The syntax as a numeric representation is the same as NRf.
MINimum and MAXimum are available as substitutes for declaring certain values.
Units such as V, A, and W can also be used in a numeric parameter.
If a value that cannot be assigned is entered, the device rounds the value to the
closest possible value.
OUTP:DEL:ON 1.22
The setting resolution of the output-on delay is 0.1, so +1.20000E+00 is returned in
response to the OUTP:DEL:ON? query.
KIKUSUI Electronics Corp.PWR-01 Interface Manual
IEEE488.2 Common Commands
■ Special form numeric parameters
The special form numeric parameters MINimum, MAXimum and DEFault can be
used as substitutes for limit values when the parameter is numeric. In the example
below, the current limit is set to the minimum value.
SOURce:CURRent MINimum
Queries can be used to inquire the minimum and maximum values for most parameters.
SOURce:CURRent? MAX
SOURce:CURRent? MIN
■ Measurement units
The default measurement units are listed below. Commands are accepted even if
measurement units are not specied.
•V (voltage)•A (current)•HR (hour)MIN (minute)
•S (second)
The following optional prexes are supported. If you use optional prexes, specify
the measurement unit.
•M (milli)•K (kilo)•U (micro)
- Note -
• The unit symbols in the International System of Units contain lowercase characters. The IEEE standard uses uppercase characters. SCPI commands are not
case sensitive.
• Commands are accepted whether or not measurement units are specied.
• To enter “µ” in the data, use “U” instead.
