Programming Sequences
Select Sequence to Program
PROGram:NAME <sequence_number>
<sequence_number> is a number between 1 and 10 that corresponds to the
number of the sequence.
Define the name of the program to be selected. If <sequence_number>
already exists, then that existing program is selected. If the program name does
not exist, then the new name is selected, but no program is defined by this
selection.
Editing the Sequence
To edit an existing step or to program new steps, use the following
commands:
PROG:STEP<step_number>[:EDIT] [[[[[<voltage>]
,<current>],<power>],<OVP_level>],{<time>|TRIG}]
Any of the step parameters may be omitted, in which case the default parameters
will be used. The defaults are 0 V, 0 A, 0 W, 0 V, 10 ms.
To insert a step between commands in an existing program, use this
command:
PROG:STEP<step_number>:INS <voltage>
,<current>,<power>,<OVP_level>,{<time>|TRIG}
The step number is where the inserted step is to be located. The existing step and
all following steps at that location are moved down.
In both the edit and insert commands:
• <step_number> ranges from 1 to 99.
• <time> defines the duration of the step and must be entered in the format
milliseconds. It ranges from 10ms to 99 hours.
• TRIG may be entered instead of a step duration. In this case, the unit will
hold the output levels at that step until a trigger signal is supplied.
Setting Sequence Repetitions
PROG:REP {ONCE |<sequence_count>|FOR|INF}
• ONCE will run the sequence once and return it to its STOP condition.
• <sequence_count> ranges from 1 to 9999. It will run the sequence the
number of times specified before putting it into the STOP condition.
