INSTALLATIONS ANWEISUNGEN
Vorsicht
Vor Anschluss an das Netz ist die Aufstellanleitung wie nachstehend beschrieben zu beachten. Die
nachstehenden Sicherheitsanweisugen mussen während aller Phasen des Betriebes, des
Services
und der Reparatur dieser Ausrustung beachtet werden. Alle notwendigen Bedingungen die
sicherstellen, dass die Einrichtung zu keiner Gefahr im Sinne dieser Norm führen kann, sind in diesem
Handbuch beschrieben.
TDK
-
Lambda Americas Inc. ist nich ve
rantwortlich fur Fehler, die bei der Inbetriebnahme des Gerates
auf Grundlage dieser Sicherheitsanweisungen durch den Betreiber entstehen können.
Betriebsbedingungen
Die Genesys
TM
Stromversorgungs
-
Reihe ist zur installation gemass Uberspannungs
-
Kategorie
2
entwickelt worden.
Installatios Kategorie (Uberspannungs
-
Kategories) 2 bedeutet: Kleinindustrie, Geräte, bewegliche
Ausrustung etc.. mit Uberspannungen kleiner als Installation Kategorie 3.
Erdungskonzept
Dieses Produkt ist ein Gerat mit Schutzklasse1. D
amit gefahrliche Energieinhalte und Spannungen
vermieden werden, ist das Geratechassis an eine Schutzerde anzuschliessen. Das Gerat muss an die
AC-Wechselspannungsversorgung mit 3 Leitern (L, N, PE) angeschlossen werden. Der PE
-
Anschluss ist an ein
en festen Erder anzuschliessen. Bei Festverdrahtung des Gerates ist
sicherzustellen, dass der PE Anschluss als erstes durchgefuhrt wird.
Jede mogliche Unterbrechung des PE
-
Leiters oder Trennung der PE Masses kann einen moglichen
elektrischen Schlag hervorr
ufen, der Personenschaden zur Folge hatte.
Vorsicht
Erdung des DC
-
Ausgangs
Es besteht Energiegefahr am RS232/RS485 und IEEE Anschluss, falls die Ausgangsspannung des
Gerates grosser ist als 400V und der positive Ausgangsanschluss des Netzteil
es geerdet wird. Dies gilt
insbesondere auch bei Reihenschaltungen von unterschiedlichen Netzteilen. Wird die RS232/485 oder
IEEE Schnittstelle verwendet, ist darauf zu achten, dass der Plus
-
Ausgangsanschluss nicht geerdet
wird.
Absicherung
Sicherungen dur
fen nur durch autorisierte TDK
-

3.9 CONNECTING THE LOAD
3.9.1
Load Wiring
The following considerations should be mad
e to select wiring for connecting the load to the power su
p-
ply:Current carrying capacity of the wire (refer to Section 3.9.2)
Insulation rating of the wire should be at least equivalent to the maximum output voltage of the
power supply.
Maximum wire lengt
h and voltage drop (refer to Section 3.9.2)
Noise and impedance effects of the load wiring (refer to Section 3.9.4).
3.9.2
Current Carrying Capacity
Two factors must be considered when selecting the wire size:
1.
Wires should be at least heavy enough not to overhea
t while carrying the power supply load
current at the rated load, or the current that would flow in the event the load wires were
shorted, whichever is greater.
WARNING
Shorting the output may e
xpose the user to hazar
d
ous
voltages. Observe proper safety procedures.
WARNING
Turn Off the AC input power bef
ore making or changing any
rear panel connection. Ensure that all connections are s
e-
curely tightened before applying power. There is a potential
shock hazard when using a power supply with a rated ou
t-
put greater than 40V.

CAUTION
When local sensing, a
short from +LS or +S to
-
V or
-
S or
-
LS,
will cause damage to the power supply. Reversing the sense
wires might cause damage to the power supply in local and
remote sensing. (Do not connect
-
S to +V or +S to
-
V).
2.
Wire size should be selected to enable voltage drop per lead to be less than 1.0V at the rate
d
current. Although units will compensate for up to 5V in each load wire, it is recommended to
minimize the voltage drop (1V typical maximum) to prevent excessive output power consum
p-
tion from the power supply and poor dynamic response to load changes. Ple
ase refer to T

3.9.4
Noise and I
m
pedance Effects
To minimize the noise pickup or radiation, the load wires and remote sense wires should be twisted
pairs to the shortest possible length. Shielding of sense leads may be necessary in high no
ise env
i-
ronments. Where shielding is used, connect the shield to the chassis via a rear panel Ground screw.
Even if noise is not a concern, the load and remote sense wires should be twisted
-
pairs to reduce
coupling, which might impact the stability of powe
r supply. The sense leads should be separated from
the power leads.
Twisting the load wires reduces the parasitic inductance of the cable, which could produce high fr
e-
quency voltage spikes at the load and the output of the power supply, because of current
variation in
the load itself.
The impedance introduced between the power supply output and the load could make the ripple and
noise at the load worse than the noise at the power supply rear panel output. Additional filtering with
bypass capacitors at the
load terminals may be required to bypass the high frequency load current.
3.9.5
Inductive lo
ads
Inductive loads can produce voltage spikes that may be harmful to the power supply. A diode should
be connected across the output. The diode voltage and current rating should be greater than the
power supply maximum output voltage and current rating. C
onnect the cathode to the positive output
and the anode to the negative output of the power supply.
Where positive load transients such as back EMF from a motor may occur, connect a surge suppre
s-
sor across the output to protect the power supply. The breakd
own voltage rating of the suppressor
must be approximately 10% higher than the maximum output voltage of the power supply.
3.9.6
Making the load connections
6V to 60V Models
Refer to Fig.3
-

tions
when using a power supply with a rated output greater than 40V. T
o
protect personnel against accidental contact with hazardous vol
t
ages,
ensure that the load and its connections have no accessible live parts.
Ensure that the load wiring insulation rating is greater than or equal to
the maximum output voltage of the powe
r supply.
CAUTION
Ensure that the load wiring mounting hardware does not short the ou

WARNING
OUTPUT TERMINAL GROUNDING
There is a potential shock hazard at the RS232/RS485 and the IEEE ports when
using power supplies with rated or combined voltage greater than 400V
with the
Positive Output of the power supplies grounded. Do not connect the Positive
output to ground when using the RS232/RS485 or IEEE under the above cond
i-
tions.
3.10 LOCAL AND REMOTE SENSING
The rear panel J2 sense connector is used to configure the power supply for local or remote sensing
of the Output Voltage. R
e
fer to Fig.3
-
14 for sense
connector location.
3.10.1
Sense wiring
3.10.2
Local sensing
The power supply is shipped with the rear panel J2 sense connector wired for local sensing of the
Output Voltage. See Table 3
-
4 for J2 terminals assignment. With local sensing, the Output Voltage
regulatio
n is made at the output terminals. This method does not compensate for voltage drop on the
load wires, therefore it is recommended only for low load current applications or where the load reg
u-
lation is less critical.

WARNING
There is a potential shock hazard at the sense connector when using a
power
supply with a rated Output Voltage greater than 40V. Local sense and remote
sense wires should have a minimum insulation rating equivalent or greater than
the maximum Output Voltage of the power supply. Ensure that the connections at
the load end ar
e shielded to prevent accidental contact with hazardous voltages.

3.10.3
Remote sensing
Use remote sense where the load regulation at the load end is critical. In remote sense, the power
supply will compensate for voltage drop on the load wires. Refer to the power supply specific
a
tions for
the maximu
m voltage drop on load wires. The voltage drop is subtracted from the total voltage avai
l-
able at the output. Follow the instructions below to configure the power supply for remote sensing:
1.
Ensure that the AC On/Off is in the Off position.
2.
Remove the local
sense jumpers from J2.
3.
Connect the negative sense lead to terminal J2
-
5 (S) and the positive sense lead to term
i
nal J2
-
1(+S) of the J2 mating connector. Ensure that the J2 mating connector is plugged securely into
the rear panel sense connector, J2.
4.
Turn O
n the power supply.
Notes:
1.
If the power supply is operating in remote sense and either the positive or negative load wire is not
connected, an internal protection circuit will activate and shut down the power supply. To resume
operation, turn the AC On/Off
to the Off position, connect the open load wire, and turn On the
power supply.
2.
If the power supply is operated without the remote sense lines or local sense jumpers, it will co
n-
tinue to work, but the output voltage regulation will be degraded. Also, the O
VP circuit may act
i-
vate and shut down the power supply.

CHAPTER 5 LOCAL OPERATION
5.1 INTRODUCTION
This Chapter describes the operating modes that are not involved in programming and monitoring the
power supply via its serial
communication port (RS232/RS485) or by remote analog signals. E
n
sure
that the REM/LOC LED on the front panel is Off, indicating Local mode. If the REM/LOC LED is On,
press the front panel REM/LOC button to change the operating mode to Local.
-
For informat
ion regarding Remote Analog Programming, refer to Chapter 6.
-
For information regarding usage of the Serial Communication Port, refer to Chapter 7.
5.2 STANDARD OPERATION
The power supply has two basic operating modes: Constant Voltage Mode and Constant C
urrent
Mode. The mode in which the power supply operates at any given time depends on the Output Vol
t-
age setting, Output Current setting and the load resistance.
5.2.1 Constant Voltage Mode
1.
In constant voltage mode, the power supply regulates the Output V
oltage at the selected value,
while the load current varies as required by the load.
2.
While the power supply operates in constant voltage mode, the VOLTAGE LED on the front panel
illuminates.
3.
Adjustment of the Output Voltage can be made when the power suppl
y output is enabled (Output
On) or disabled (Output Off). When the output is enabled, simply rotate the VOLTAGE encoder
knob to program the output voltage. When the output is disabled, press the PREV button and
then rotate the VOLTAGE encoder knob. The VO
LTAGE meter will show the programmed Output
Voltage for 5 seconds after the adjustment has been completed. Then the VOLTAGE meter will
display “OFF”.
4.
Adjustment resolution can be set to coarse or fine resolution. Press FINE button to select b
e
tween
the low
er and higher resolution. The FINE LED turns On when the resolution is set to FINE.
5.2.2 Constant Current Mode
1.
In constant current mode, the power supply regulates the Output Current at the selected value,
while the voltage varies with the loa
d requirement.
2.
While the power supply is operating in constant current mode, the CURRENT LED on the front
panel illuminates.
3.
Adjustment of the Output Current setting can be made when the power supply output is enabled
(Output On) or disabled (Output Off).
-
Disabled output (Off): Press PREV button and then rotate the Current encoder knob. The
CURRENT meter will show the programmed Output Current limit for 5 seconds after the adjus
t-
ment has been completed. Then the VOLTAGE meter will display “OFF”.
NOTE
If after completing the adjustment, the display shows a different value
than the setting, the power supply may be at current limit. Check the
load condition a
nd the power supply Output Current setting.
NOTE
The maximum and minimum setting values of the output voltage are
limited by the Over Voltage
protection and Under Voltage limit se
t
ting.
Refer to Sections 5.3 and 5.4 for more details.
83
-
507-013 Rev. D
35
-
Enabled
output, power supply in Constant Voltage mode: Press the PREV button and then rotate
the CURRENT encoder knob. The CURRENT meter will show the programmed Output Current
for 5 seconds after the adjustment has been completed, and then will return to show the
actual
load current.
-
Enabled output, power supply in Constant Current mode: Rotate the CURRENT e
n
coder knob to
adjust the Output Current.
4.
Adjustment resolution can be set to Coarse or Fine adjustment. Press the FINE button to select
between the Coarse an
d Fine resolution. The FINE LED turns On when the resolution is set to
FINE.
5.2.3 Automatic Crossover
If the power supply operates in Constant Voltage mode, while the load current is increased to greater
than the current limit setting, the power supply wi
ll automatically switch to Constant Cu
r
rent mode. If
the load is decreased to less than the current limit setting, the power supply will automatically switch
back to Constant Voltage mode.
5.3
OVER VOLTAGE PROTECTION (OVP)
The OVP circuit protects the load in
the event of a remote or local programming error or a power su
p-
ply failure. The protection circuit monitors the voltage at the power supply sense points and thus pr
o-
vides the protection level at the load. Upon detection of an Over Voltage condition, the po
wer supply
output will shut down.
5.3.1
Setting the OVP level
The OVP can be set when the power supply output is Enabled (On) or Disabled (Off). To set the OVP
level, press the OVP/UVL button, so that the CURRENT meter shows “OUP”. The VOLTAGE meter
shows the OV
P setting level. Rotate the VOLTAGE encoder knob to adjust the OVP level. The display
will show “OUP” and the setting value for 5 seconds after the adjustment has been co
m
pleted, and
then will return to its previous state.
The minimum setting level is approximately 105% of the
set Output Voltage, or the value in Table 7
-
6, whichever is
hi
gher. The maximum setting level is shown in Table 5
-1.To preview the OVP setting, press the OVP/UVL pushbu
t-
ton so that the CURRENT display will show “OUP”. At this
time, the VOLTAGE display will show the OVP setting. A
f-
ter 5 seconds, the display will retu
rn to its previous state.

3.
There are four methods to reset the OVP circuit.
a) Press the OUT button.
b) Turn the power supply Off using the AC On/Off switch, wait until the front panel display turns
Off, then turn the power supply On using the AC On/Off switch.
c)
Turn the power supply output Off and then On using the SO control
(refer to Section 5.7). In
this method the power supply should be set to Auto
-
Restart mode.

UNDER VOLTAGE LIMIT (UVL)
The UVL prevents adjustment of the Output Vol
t
age below a certain lim
it. The combination of UVL
and OVP functions, allow the user to create a protection window for sensitive load circuitry.
5.4.1
Setting the UVL level
Setting the UVL can be made when the power supply output is Enabled (On) or Disabled (Off). To set
the UVL level,
press the OVP/UVL button TWICE, so that the CURRENT meter shows “UUL”. The
VOLTAGE meter shows the UVL setting level. Rotate the VOLTAGE encoder knob to adjust the UVL
level. The display will show ‘UUL” and the setting value for 5 seconds after the adjust
ment has been
completed and then will return to its previous state.
UVL setting values are limited at the maximum level to approximately 95% of the Output Voltage se
t-
ting. Attempting to adjust the UVL above this limit will result in no response to the adju
stment attempt.
The minimum UVL se
t
ting is zero.
5.5
FOLDBACK PROTECTION
Foldback protection will shut down the power supply output if the load current exceeds the current
limit setting level. This protection is useful when the load circuitry is sensitive to
an overcurrent cond
i-
tion.
5.5.1
Setting the Foldback protection
To arm the Foldback protection, the FOLD button should be pressed so that the FOLD LED illum
i-
nates. In this condition, transition from Constant Voltage to Constant Current mode will activate the
Fol
dback protection. Activation of the Foldback protection disables the power supply output, causes
the ALARM LED to blink and displays “Fb” on the VOLTAGE meter.
5.5.2
Resetting activated Foldback protection
There are four methods to reset an activated Foldback pr
otection.
1.
Press the OUT button. The power supply output is enabled and the Output Voltage and Cu
r
rent
will return to their last setting. In this method, the Foldback protection remains armed, therefore if
the load current is higher than the current limit
setting, the Foldback protection will be activated
again.
2.
Press the FOLD button to cancel the Foldback protection. The power supply output will be di
s-
abled and the VOLTAGE display will show “OFF”. Press the OUT button to enable the power su
p-
ply output.
3.
Tur
n the power supply output Off and then On using the SO control (refer to Section 5.7). In this
method the Foldback protection remains armed, therefore if the load current is higher than the
output current setting, the Foldback prote
c
tion will be activated.
4.
Turn the power supply Off using the AC On/Off switch, wait until the front panel display turns Off,
then turn the unit back ON again. The power supply output is enabled and the Output Voltage and
Current will return to their last setting. In this method,
the Foldback protection remains armed,
therefore if the load current is higher than the output current setting, the Foldback protection will
be activated again.
5.6
OUTPUT ON/OFF CONTROL
The Output On/Off Enables or Disables the power supply output. Use this
function to make adjus
t-
ments to either the power supply or the load without shutting off the AC power. The Output On/Off
can be activated from the front panel using the OUT button or from the rear panel J1 connector. The
OUT button can be pressed at any ti
me to Enable or Disable the power supply output. When the ou
t-
put is disabled, the Output Voltage and Current fall to zero and the VOLTAGE display shows “OFF”.

AC power; even if SO is at an Off level). After an On to Off transition it is detected, the SO will Enable
or Disable the power supply output according to the
signal level or the short/open applied to J1. This
function is useful for connecting power supplies in a “Daisy
-
chain” (refer to Section 5.16). The SO
control can also be used to reset the OVP and Fold Protection (refer to Section 5.3 and 5.5 for d
e-
tails)
.
When the unit is shut
-
off by a J1 signal, the VOLTAGE display will show “SO” to indicate the unit
state. J1 contact 15 is the SO signal input and contacts 2 and 3, IF_COM, are the signal return (co
n-
nected internally). Co
n
tacts 2, 3 and 15 are optically i
solated from the power supply output.

5.14 SERIES OPERATION
Power supplies of the SAME MODEL can be connected in series to obtain increased output voltage.
Split connection of the power supplies gives positive and negative output voltage.
5.14.1 Series connection for increased outp
ut voltage
In this mode, two units are connected so that their outputs are summed. Set the Current of each
power supply to the maximum that the load can handle without damage. It is recommended that d
i-
odes be connected in parallel with each unit output to
prevent reverse voltage during start up s
e-
quence or in case one unit shuts down. Each diode should be rated to at least the power supply rated
Output Voltage and Output Current. Refer to Fig.5
-
1 and 5
-
2 for series operation with local and r
e-
mote sensing.
Remote programming in series operation for increased output voltage:
1. Programming by external voltage:
The analog programming circuits of this power supply
are referenced to the negative output potential. Ther
e-
fore, the circuits used to contro
l each series connected
unit must be separated and floated from each other.
2. Using the SO function and PS_OK signal: The Shut
-
Off and PS_OK circuits are referenced to the
isolated interface common, IF_COM (J1
-
2,3). The
IF_COM terminals of different units
can be connected to
obtain a single control circuit for the power supplies co
n-
nected in series.
CAUTION
Do not connected power supplies from diffe

5.15 PARALLEL OPERATION
Up to four units of the same VOLTAGE and CURRENT rating can be connected in parallel to provide
up to four times the Output Current ca
pability. One of the units operates as a Master and the remai
n-
ing units are Slaves. The Slave units are analog programmed by the Master unit. In remote digital o
p-
eration, only the Master unit can be programmed by the computer, while the Slave units may be
con-nected to the computer for voltage, current and status readback only. Follow the following procedure
to configure multiple supplies for parallel operation. Refer to Sec. 5.15
.1
and to Sec. 5.15.2 for d
e-
tailed explanation.
5.15.1
Basic parallel operation
In thi
s method, setting the units as Master and Slaves is made by the rear panel J1 connections and
the setup switch SW1. Each unit displays its own output current and voltage. To program the load cu
r-
urrent divided by the number of units in
the system. Refer to the following procedure to configure multiple supplies for basic parallel operation.
1. Setting up the Master unit
Set the Master unit Output Voltage to the desired voltage. Program the Output C
urrent to the desired
load current divided by the number of parallel units. During operation, the Master unit operates in CV
mode, regulating the load voltage at the programmed Output Voltage. Connect the sensing circuit to
local or remote sensing as shown
in Fig.5
-
4 or fig.5
-
5.
2. Setting up the Slave units
-1.The Output Voltage of the Slave units should be programmed 2
-
5% higher than the Output
Voltage of the Master unit to prevent interference with the Master unit’s control. The Output
Current settin
g of each unit should be programmed to the desired load current divided by the
number of pa
r
allel units.
-
2. Set the rear panel setup switch SW1 position 2 to the up position.
-
3. Connect a wire jumper between J1
-
8 and J1
-
12 (refer to Table 4
-
4).-4. Conne
ct J1 terminal 10(IPGM) of the slave unit to J1 terminal 25(P) of the master unit.
During operation, the Slave units operate as a controlled current source following the Master Ou
t-
put Current. It is recommended that the power system be designed so that eac
h unit supplies up
to 95% of its current rating because of the imbalance which may be caused by cabling and co
n-
nection vol
t
age drop.

Setting Over Voltage protection
The Master unit OVP setting should be programmed to the desired OVP level. The OVP setting of
the slave units should be programmed to a higher value than the Master OVP. Whe
n the Master
unit shuts down, it programs the Slave unit to zero Output Voltage. If a Slave unit shuts down
(when its OVP is set lower than the Master Output Voltage), only that Slave unit would shut down,
and the remai
n
ing Slave units would supply all of
the load current.
5.
Setting Foldback protection
Foldback protection, is desired, may only be used with the Master unit. When the Master unit
shuts down, it programs the Slave units to zero Output Vol
t
age.

two units, however the same connection method applies for up to 4 units.
5.15.2
Advanced parall
el operation
In this method, multiple supplies can be configured to parallel operation as a single power supply. The
total load current and output voltage are displayed by the Master unit and can be readback from the
Master unit. The Slave units display o
nly their o

CHAPTER 6 REMOTE ANALOG PROGRAMMING
6.1 INTRODUCTION
The rear panel connector J1 allows the
user to program the power supply Output Voltage and Current
with an analog device. J1 also provides monitoring signals for Output Voltage and Output Current.
The programming range and monitoring signals range can be selected between 0
-
5V or 0
-
10V using
the setup switch SW1. When the power supply is in Remote Analog programming mode, the serial
communication port is a
c
tive and can be used to query the power supply settings.

6.5 RESISITIVE PROGRAMMING OF OUTPUT VOLTAGE AND CURRENT LIMIT
For resistive programming, internal current sources, for Output Voltage and/or Output Current control,
supply 1mA current through external programmi
ng resistors connected between J1
-
9 & 22 and J1
-10& 23. The voltage across the programming resistors is used as a programming voltage for the power
supply. Resistance of 0
5Kohm or 0
10Kohm can be selected to program the Output Voltage and
Output Current
from zero to full scale.
A variable resistor can control the output over its entire range, or a combination of variable resistor
and series/parallel resistors can control the output over restricted portion of its range.
Perform the following procedure to
set the power supply to Resistive programming:
1.
Turn the AC On/Off switch to Off.
2.
Set setup switch SW1, positions 1 and 2 to their UP position.
3.
Set SW1, position 3 to select the programming resistor range according to Table 6
-4.4.
Set SW1, positions 7 and 8 t
o their UP position, to enable resistive programming mode.
5.
Connect a wire jumper between J1
-
8 and J1
-
12 (refer to Table 4
-
4).6.Connect the programming resistors to the mating plug of J1 as shown in Fig.6
-2.7.
Set the programming resistors to the desired resis
tance and turn the power supply ON. Adjust the
resistors to change the power supply output.
NOTES:
1.
SW1, positions 4, 5, 6 and 9 are not required for remote programming. Their settings can be d
e-
termined according to the application requirements.
2.
The contro
l circuits allow the user to set the Output Voltage and Output Current up to 5% over the
model
-
rated maximum value. The power supply will operate within the extended range, however it
is not recommended to operate the power supply over its voltage and curr
ent rating and perfor
m-
ance is not guaranteed.
3.
To maintain the temperature stability specification of the power supply, the resistors used for pr
o-
gramming should be stable and low noise resistors, with temperature coefficient of less than
50ppm.
4.
When resist
ive programming is used, front panel and computer control (via serial communication
port) of Output Voltage and Current are disabled.

7.4 MD MODE OPTION (Factory Installed)
7.4.1 MD Mode Description
The GEN supply is capable of operating in a multi drop e
nvironment
-
more than 1 supply co
n
ducting
serial communications on a single serial bus. A maximum of 31 GEN supplies can operate in this si
n-
gle bus. Upon power up the Gen will enter the point
-to-
point mode in which it is a
s
sumed that only 1
supply will op
erate on a serial bus. MD Mode must be enabled
-
Ref. Section 7.10.2.2. The user must
set all Slave supplies to a unique address. No two supplies may have the same address.
7.4.2
MD Mode enable
Serial communication mode
Refer to section 7.10.2.2. MD Mode is en
tered into via a Single byte command. In MD Mode the Ma
s-
ter supply shall operate in one of the two serial modes, RS232 or RS485, depending upon the rear
panel DIP switch setting and the Slave supplies shall operate in the RS485 s
e
rial mode.
7.4.3
MD Mode SRQ
In
MD Mode the SRQ generated by the supply is replaced by a single byte SRQ sent two times in s
e-
quence. The SRQ byte, in binary, will contain the address of the supply in the least significant 5 bits
with bits 5 and 6 set to logic zero and bit 7 set to logic
1. Ref. Table 7
-
4.
7.4.4
Communication Collisions
In MD Mode it is possible to have one supply issue an SRQ while another supply is transmitting
data/response to a command. When this happens, the HOST PC will receive garbled data and a
s-
sume that the data/respons
e was corrupted and thus re
-
send the command
-
the SRQ will probably
be lost. The method of recovery will be SRQ retransmission, Ref. Section 7.4.5, or pol
l
ing all attached
supplies to see who issued the SRQ
-
available by reading the SEVE? Regist
er.
7.4.5
MD Mo
de SRQ Retransmission
The supply can be commanded to retransmit the SRQ at regular intervals until it is answered to by the
HOST PC (Ref. Section 7.10.2.4). The retransmission interval is 10 ms plus the supply address mult
i-
plied by 20 ms.

7.10 SINGLE BYTE COMMANDS
7.10.1
General
Single byte commands are commands in which all the necessary data for the supply to
act upon is
contained in a single byte. Single byte commands will be executed immediately by the supply. If the
command requires data to be sent to the HOST PC or IEEE Board (see sections 7.10.4 and 7.10.3.1)
that response will be transmitted immediately
with no delay due to any software overhead. With the
exce
p
tion of the Disconnect from communications command, section 7.10.3.1, commands must be
sent by the HOST PC or IEEE Board 2 times in sequence for verif
i
cation. All have the most significant
bit, D7,
set to a logic 1. A CR, carriage return, character is not included in a single byte command.
The RST command will not change any setting made by a single byte command.
All Single Byte commands will be executed in 1 ms or less. This does not include any res
ponse sent
to the HOST/IEEE Board, which is dependent upon the response length and the serial transmission
speed (Baud rate).
7.10.2
Global commands without response
7.10.2.1
Disable MD Mode (MD MODE OPTION REQUIRED)
Disable is the default condition upon power up. The Hex
value of the command is 0xA0. Send it two
times in sequence. All supplies, both the currently addressed supply and all non
-
addressed su
p
plies,
will disable MD Mode as a result of this command.
7.10.2.2
Enable MD Mode (MD MODE OPTION REQUIRED)
Send to enable Multi
Drop Mode. The Hex value of the command is 0xA1. Sent it two times in s
e-
quence. When this command is sent, the supply will set SRQ retransmission to the disable state; if
you wish it to be enabled you must send the enable command. All supplies, both the cu
rrently a
d-
dressed supply and all non
-
addressed supplies, will enable MD Mode as a r
e
sult of this command.
7.10.2.3
Disable SRQ retransmission (MD MODE OPTION REQUIRED)
Disable is the default condition upon power up. The Hex value of the command is 0xA2. Sent
it two
times in sequence. If the supply sends an SRQ it will only sent it 1 time. All supplies, both the cu
r-
rently addressed supply and all non
-
addressed supplies, will disable SRQ retransmission as a result
of this command. All status registers will retain thei
r data when this command is sent.
7.10.2.4
Enable SRQ retransmission (MD MODE OPTION REQUIRED)
Enable retransmission of SRQs. This is only available when the Multi Drop Mode is enabled in the
supply. The Hex value of the command is 0xA3. Send it two times in sequen
ce. If the supply sends an
SRQ it will be repeated on a timely basis, 10 ms plus 20 ms times the supply address, until answered.
All supplies, both the currently addressed supply and all non
-
addressed supplies, will enable SRQ r
e-
transmission as a result of
this co
m
mand.
7.10.2.5
Enable FLT Bit in the SENA Register
The Hex value of the command is 0xA4. Send it two times in sequence.
7.10.3
Global commands with response
7.10.3.1
Disconnect from communications
Command the supply to end all data transmissions to the HOST PC/IEEE Board
and cease its role as
the active addressed supply. The HOST PC/IEEE Board will be required to re
-
send the ‘ADR nn’ co
m-
mand to reestablish communications with the supply. After receiving the first command the supply will
respond with an OK<CR>. The Hex val
ue of the command is 0xBF. All supplies, both the currently
addressed supply and all non
-
addressed supplies, will
respond to this command; but only the cu
r-
rently a
d
dressed supply (if any) will respond with the ‘OK’.

7.10.4
Addressed commands with response
7.10.4.1
Read
registers
Send (0x80 + Address) (1 byte binary
-
send 2 times sequentially). The supply will return the contents
of the Status Condition Register, the Status Enable Register, the Status Event Re
g
ister (SEVE?), the
Fault Condition Register, the Fault Enabl
e Register and the Fault Event Register IFEVE/). All registers
will be represented in two Hex bytes. Following the register data, a single dollar sign, $, will be added
to signal the end of data and the start of a chec
k
sum. The checksum will be the sum of
all register
data and will be represented in two Hex bytes. The transmission will end with the CR character. If r
e-
petitive sending of SRQs was active and the supply was sending them, the supply will stop sen
d
ing
repetitive SRQs but leave the function activ
e. The contents of the registers will not be destroyed. Note
that the supply does snot have to be the active addressed su
p
ply.
Note that this command will not execute if another command is being processed.
7.10.4.2
Print Power On Time
Print the total time the suppl
y has operated under AC power. Send 2 bytes in sequence, A6 Hex and
the address of the supply in binary. A 32 bit integer will be returned in 8 Hex bytes. The data will be
the number of minutes that power has been ‘ON’ in the supply in binary. A ‘$’ sign a
nd 2 byte Hex
checksum will be appended to the data. There is no method provided to reset this number.
Retransmit last message.
Send (0xC0 + Address) (1 byte binary
-
send 2 times sequentially). The supply will return the last
message sent. Note that the s
upply does not have to be the active addressed su
p
ply.
This command will not execute if another command is being processed.
Note that Single byte commands do not load data into the supply’s data output buffer.
Thus this command will not cause the supply to
retransmit data obtained from any previous Single
Byte Command.
7.10.4.3
Retransmit Last Message
Send (0xC0 + Address) (1 byte binary
-
send 2 times sequentially). The supply will return the last
message sent. Note that the supply does not have to be the active ad
dressed su
p
ply.
This command will not execute if another command is being processed.
Note that Single byte commands do not load data into the supply’s data output buffer. Thus this co
m-
mand will not cause the supply to retransmit data obtained from any prev
ious Single
Byte Command.
7.10.4.4
Test if MD Mode is Installed
Send AA Hex followed by the address of the supply in binary. If not installed, the supply will return a
‘1’. If installed, the supply will return a ‘0’.
7.10.5
Addressed commands without response
7.10.5.1
Acknowledge
SRQ
Send (0xE0 + Address) (1 byte binary
-
send 2 times sequentially). The supply will stop re
-
sending
SRQ. If Enable SRQ retransmission is active, it will remain active.
7.10.5.2
Re-enable SRQ with out reading/clearing the SEVE Register
Send A5 Hex followed by the
address of the supply in binary and new SRQ’s generated by new
events in the Fault Event will be enabled without reading and clearing the Status Event Register. All
events previously recorded in the Fault Event Register must have been serviced by the user
’s sof
t-
ware prior to this command to take affect.

CHAPTER 8 ISOLATED ANALOG PROGRAMMING OPTION
8.1 INTRODUCTION
Isolated Analog Programming is an internal Option Card for analog programming of the Genesys
TM
power supply se
ries. The option is factory installed and cannot be obtained with a GPIB (IEEE
-
488)
Interface. Output Voltage and Output Current can be programmed and readback through optically is
o-
lated si
g
nals which are isolated from all other ground references in the po
wer supply.
There are two types of Isolated Analog programming cards:
1.0-
5V/0
-
10V option (PN: IS510): Using 0
-
5V or 0
-
10V signals for programming and readback.
2.4-
20mA option (PN: IS420): Using current signals for programming and readback.
