Instruction Manual (Remote Control)

1.1 Overview

1.1

Overview

The DP power source supports following four types of remote interfaces:USB (USB Test and Measurement Class USB488 Subclass, abbreviated to USBTMC hereinafter)
RS232
GPIB (available when specified at the order.)LAN (available when specified at the order.)The DP power source is provided with the USB, RS232, GPIB (specified at the order) and LAN(specified at the order) remote interfaces and is remote-controllable by a computer or other
instruments. By sending remote commands for each function and receiving the data, you can control
the function execution and read the internal state such as setting values and error statuses.
Regardless of which communication interface is used, you can create and use a program that uses the
Virtual Instrument Software Architecture (VISA) library. If you do not have a license to use VISA
library, you need to obtain one (generally, it requires some cost).
Irrespective of differences in interface, each function can be used with the same command from theremote interface. However, some functions are not available in the RS232, GPIB and LAN due tointerface-specific restrictions.
[Restrictions in RS232, GPIB and LAN]
 Status and register acquisition method
Serial poll-based status register acquisition is not available.
For details, see 2.2.
 Handling of termination symbol at command send/receive
The RS232, LAN always requires a termination symbol.
 Binary data handling
Arbitrary waveform data in binary data cannot be sent.
 Remote/Local state transition condition
The RS232, LAN cannot perform the state transition from Remote to Local using the
remote command. Only the panel operation can change the state to Local.

About Remote and Local

1.6.1 Remote StateIn the Remote state, the control panel key operations are not accepted. However, the output off(OUTPUT key) and the switching to the Local state (+) are available.

 Switching to the Remote state
When communication is established after the command is sent from the computer to the product, theDP power source switches to the Remote state.

1.6.2 Local State
Control panel key operations are accepted.
 Switching to the Local state
The Shortcut operation+

switches the state to Local.

The Remote state is cleared when the LOCAL key is pressed in the Remote state, when the GPIB bus
REN line is set to False (High) from the computer, or when the GTL command is received. However,the LOCAL key is disabled when the DP power source is in the local lockout state. To clear the local
lockout status, you need to set the GPIB bus REN line to False (High) on the computer.

Considerations

1.7.1 Considerations Common to the Interfaces• The input buffer size is 2048 bytes.
The DP power source interprets and executes the commands sequentially as it stores received
commands to the input buffer. It can also handle a data of more than the size of the input buffer, where
the data includes one statement which consists of multiple commands concatenated together and is
terminated with the message terminator (delimiter symbol or EOI). However, the input buffer becomesfull if the communication data volume is too large compared to the speed of command interpretationand execution. In that case, the computer cannot send any command, and therefore results intransmission timeout.
Note that the transmission timeout does not occur if the communication is taking place with the RS232
flow control set to None. However, other error occurs such as command execution error because thecommand sent from the computer is not received correctly by the DP power source.
If there is an error during interpretation or execution of any one of the multiple commands that areconcatenated and sent to the DP power source, any commands after that command up to the message
terminator are discarded; not interpreted or executed.
• The output buffer size is 2048 bytes.
The output buffer is cleared if the size of the response data in reply to the query command from thecomputer exceeds the output buffer size. At this time, the DP power source sets the query error bit of
the standard event status register to 1.
During the processing of data that includes multiple commands concatenated up to the message
terminator (delimiter symbol or EOI) in one statement, if the size of the response data exceeds theoutput buffer size, the command parsing and execution is continued while the excess response data
does not remain in the output buffer.
• The maximum number of errors that can be queued is 16.
Every time a command parsing and execution error occurs, the error message is queued in the error
queue. If command errors occur beyond the maximum queuing number of errors, the error message
stored in the 16th queue is replaced with -350,”Queue overflow.”• The USB, RS232, GPIB and LAN interfaces are expected to be used under a relatively stableenvironment. Avoid using in a place that has power fluctuation or environment with much electricalnoise.

1.7 Considerations---- Restrictions------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Do not insert or remove a USB memory while the main unit is performing the remotecommunication. This may damage the USB memory or cause the main unit tomalfunction.
Insert or remove a USB memory after terminating the remote command based
auto-execution program and similar activities.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1.7.2 USB Interface• To use a USB interface, USBTMC device driver software needs to be installed on your computer.
• Not that not all USBTMC device driver software pieces provided by every company have been tested
for operation verification.
Operation verification was performed on our USBTMC compatible device driver software (dedicatedto the attached application) and the USBTMC device driver software that comes with NI-VISA
provided by National Instruments.

1.7.3 RS232 Interface• One RS232 port cannot have multiple devices connected at one time.
• When communication is taking place with no flow control, the command may not be executed
properly. Use the flow control whenever possible.
• For communication that has the hardware flow control enabled, use a cable in which the RTS signal
and CTS signal lines are interlink-connected. Use the one that RTS on the computer side is connected
to CTS on the DP power source, CTS to RTS.
• To avoid malfunctioning due to radiated electromagnetic noise, ensure to use a shielded cable.

1.7 Considerations

1.7.4 GPIB Interface• Power off all devices on the bus when you connect or disconnect the GPIB cable.
• When using the GPIB, turn on the power to all devices connected to the bus.
• Up to 15 devices (including the controller) can be connected to the GPIB in one system.
The cable length has the following limitations.
•Total cable length is 2 meters x (number of devices) or 20 meters, whichever the shorter•Length of a cable is 4 meters or less
• Check carefully for the GPIB address before setting it. Using a duplicated address in one system maydamage devices.
• Inconsistency of the delimiter settings in the system might cause unexpected trouble. Use the samedelimiter setting for every device that exists in the system.

1.7.5 LAN Interface• If you set “TCP/IP mode” to “Manual” (manually determining IP address), be careful not to set thesame IP address to the other device.
• Use an appropriate cable for connection to your network.

Remote Command

3.1.1 Command Type and Format Concept
There are two types of remote commands of DP power source; the common commands definedin IEEE488.2, and the commands defined according to SCPI (Standard Commands for
Programmable Instruments) command specifications.

3.1.2 About SCPISCPI is a standard that defines the communication method between external controllers andmeasuring instruments.
For general information about SCPI, refer to the following document:
Standard Commands for Programmable Instruments (SCPI) VERSION 1999.0
http://www.ivifoundation.org/scpi/

Conventions
The commands mentioned in the description are written following conventions:<>[]{abc|xyz}[abc|xyz]
Uppercase, lowercase

DP Series< > indicates something other than itself. In the case of parameter or
response data, the abbreviation of the type is enclosed in < >. <NL>
indicates an ASCII character that has the value of 10 decimal, and similarly,<^END> indicates EOI.
The items enclosed in [ ] are optional. Note that "[" and "]" are not part ofthe command.
Means that either "abc" or "xyz" should be used.
Indicates that either "abc" or "xyz" can be used, but both are optional.
A whole word consisting of the combination of upper and lowercase lettersmakes a long form of the keyword, while an uppercase only part makes ashort form.

3.1 Remote Command

3.1.4 SCPI Command and Query Format
A SCPI command has a hierarchical structure that consists of a root keyword, one or more
lower-level keywords, parameters, and suffixes.
The followings show examples of command and query.
:OUTPut:STATe ON<NL><^END>:OUTPut:STATe?<NL><^END>
OUTPut is the root-level keyword that links second-level keywords. ON is a commandparameter.

3.1.5 SCPI Subsystem Command Tree
3.1.5.1

Structure of Command TreeSCPI applies a hierarchical structure similar to the one used in a file system to subsystemcommands.
In SCPI, this command structure is called a command tree, and Figure 3.1 shows an example ofa command tree.

root[:SOURce]:VOLTage:FREQuency[:LEVel][:IMMediate][:FIXed][:AMPLitude]
OFFSet:PHASe:OUTPut[:STATe]:SYSTem:ERRorFigure 3.1 Example of Command TreeIn the command tree shown in Figure 3.1, the keywords closest to the top ("[:SOURce]",":OUTPut", and ":SYSTem") are root-level keywords. To reach a lower-level keyword, youmust follow the path of keywords defined above it.
For example, to access ":OFFSet", the command should be specified by following the path[:SOURce] - :VOLTage - [:LEVel] - [:IMMediate] - :OFFSet.

Instruction Manual (Remote Control)

3.1 Remote Command
3.1.5.2

Current Path Movement

The current path is a level within the command tree, and becomes the first command path fromwhich the command parser starts the search when the next command is sent. The commandparser determines the current path according to the following rules.
(1)At power-on and reset
The current path is set to the root.
(2)Message terminator
Upon reception of <NL> (message terminator), the current path is set to the root.
(3)Colon (command separator)
When a colon is placed between two keywords, the colon moves the current path down one
level in the command tree.
(4)Colon (root specifier)When a colon is placed at the beginning of a command, the colon sets the current path to theroot.
(5)Semicolon
Semicolons do not affect to the current path.
(6)Space
Spaces do not affect to the current path.
(7)Comma
Commas do not affect to the current path.
(8)IEEE488.2 common command
Common commands do not affect to the current path.
By using semicolons properly, multiple commands can be sent efficiently.
For example,:SOURce:VOLTage:LEVel:IMMediate:AMPLitude 1.0; OFFSet 1.0<NL><^END>
is the same as sending the following two commands::SOURce:VOLTage:LEVel:IMMediate:AMPLitude 1.0<NL><^END>:SOURce:VOLTage:LEVel:IMMediate:OFFSet 1.0<NL><^END>

DP Series

46

Instruction Manual (Remote Control)

3.1 Remote Command
When an optional keyword is omitted, you should pay careful attention to the current pathmovement.
For example,:VOLTage 1.0<NL><^END>
sets the current path to ":SOURce."
If you want to send the following two program messages as one program message,:SOURce:VOLTage:LEVel:IMMediate:AMPLitude 1.0<NL><^END>:SOURce:FREQuency:FIXed 100.0<NL><^END><Program message which is executed properly>:SOURce:VOLTage 1.0; FREQuency:FIXed 100.0<NL><^END><Program message which causes parsing error>:SOURce:VOLTage:LEVel:IMMediate:AMPLitude1.0; FREQuency:FIXed 100.0<NL><^END>
Here, the current path of the second command is":SOURce:VOLTage:LEVel:IMMediate" (by right, it must be ":SOURce"). Therefore,":FREQuency:FIXed 100.0" causes parsing error.

Keyword

The keyword in the command syntax is a string of up to 12 characters consisting of uppercase
and lowercase alphabetic characters, underscore (_), and numeric characters, beginning with analphabetic character.
Most keywords are shown as a mixture of uppercase and lowercase characters.
The uppercase characters represent the short form for commands. Either long or short form
format can be accepted; commands are not case sensitive actually.
Examples for the keyword "OUTPut" are listed in Table 3.2.

Keyword Separator

Keyword separators serve to separate the current keyword and the next lower-level keyword asshown in the example below. Colons (:) are used as keyword separators.
:OUTPut:STATe?
3.1.6.5

Root Specifier

A colon (:) at the beginning of the subsystem command serves as a root specifier.
The root specifier sets the current path to the root.
As colons (:) are also used as command separators, you need to carefully use them dependingon your purpose.
SOURce:FREQuency:FIXed 100.0→

All colons are header separators:SOURce:FREQuency:FIXed 1.0→

The first colon is the root specifier

SOURce:FREQuency:FIXed 100.0; :OUTPut ON→

The third colon is the root specifier

Optional Keywords

The keywords enclosed in square brackets ([]) are optional, and can be omitted. However, thesquare brackets ([]) are used for description purpose only, and are not included in the actualcommand to be sent.
If the keyword is omitted, the command parser interprets the command as if that optional

For example,:OUTPut[:STATe]means that you can use either of the following commands::OUTPut:STATe:OUTPut
3.1.6.7

Implied Channels (Optional Numeric Keyword Suffix)

Many commands allow you to specify channels by using an optional numeric keyword suffix.
For example,:OUTPut[1|2]:STATe {ON|OFF}means commands for channel 1 and 2 as follows::OUTPut[1]:STATe {ON|OFF}:OUTPut2:STATe {ON|OFF}
Here, you need to note that if you do not specify the channel number, the channel 1 will beselected as an implied channel.
For example, to control the channel 1 output to be turned ON, you can use either of thefollowing commands.
:OUTPut1:STATe ON:OUTPut:STATe ON

Figure 3.9 Boolean Value Parameter (<BOL>) Syntax

The boolean parameter is interpreted the values other than 0 as true, and 0 as false.
If the specified value includes a fractional part, that value is interpreted as the whole number
obtained by rounding the fractional part. Therefore, "0.4" is false (rounded off to 0), and "0.5"is true (rounded off to 1).
3.1.6.11 String Program Data (<STR>)
The syntax of the string program data is shown in Figure 3.10.

Figure 3.10 String Parameter (<STR>) Syntax

In the DP power source, you cannot use the following nine characters as a part of a string: \, /, :,*, ?, “, <, >, |. If the string includes one of these characters, an error process will be raised.(Theerror message returns an error code :-150 "String data error.")

The syntax of the block program data is shown in Figure 3.11.

Figure 3.11 Block Program Data (<BLK>) Syntax

For the definite length block program data, if "^END" is received before receiving the specified
number of bytes, it is treated as a command error.
The DP power source only accept the definite length block program data, and the number string
between # and the first byte data is fixed to 48192. The byte data must be 8192 bytes.
3.1.6.13 Parameter Separator
If you want to send multiple parameters in one command, you need to separate the adjacentparameters with a comma (,).
3.1.6.14 Query Parameter
Most of the queries supported by the commands that have decimal numeric parameters canreturn the minimum or maximum values if "MINimum" or "MAXimum" is specified after "?".
For example, to query the minimum and maximum values of the frequency, send the following
queries::SOURce:FREQuency? MINimum:SOURce:FREQuency? MAXimum

3.1.7 Overview of Response Message Formats
3.1.7.1

Response Message

The response data that can be read from the DP power source when the command is sent by thecomputer to inquire something is called "response message." The command sent by thecomputer is called "query", and a question mark (?) is placed at the end of the command.
3.1.7.2

Response Message Syntax

The syntax of the response message is shown in Figure 3.14.

Figure 3.14 Response Message Syntax

In response messages, commas (,) and semicolons (;) are used as separators. When multiple
values are returned by one command, data items are separated by commas (,).
When multiple queries are sent in the same message, the data item groups for each query areseparated by semicolons (;).

Program Command List

This chapter describes the program commands for the DP power source.
Some commands may be given permission or inhibition of acceptance for each output function.
Some other commands may be handled as a command error or may not be accepted, to maintain the
integrity of the internal operation state of the DP power source. In addition, some commands may
not be run depending on the output phase mode supported by the purchased product.
For these commands that require special attentions, tips are described to run them properly in"Program Command Description".

5.1 DP power source Control Programming

5.1

DP power source Control Programming

This section explains how to remote-control the DP power source from the personal computer
through the USB interface.
This section assumes an understanding of the VISA (Virtual Instrument System Architecture)
programming interface and programming language supported by the VISA library.
This program is checking the operation in the following environment.
VISA library: National Instruments' NI-VISA.net 16 Library.

* Added ".NET 4.0 Development Support (NS)" to the function to be installed.
Programming Environment: Microsoft Visual Studio 2015 .Net Framework 4.0 or higher with C#
languageThis section describes:a) Continuous output setting
Switch the output function mode to Continuous, make the output setting, then turn on the output.
After that, use the measurement function to read the measured output value.
b) Sequence function control
Switch the output function mode to Sequence, read the sequence data pre-stored in the main unit,
and start the sequence execution. After that, use the measurement function to read the measured
output value.
c) Simulation function control
Switch the output function mode to Simulation, read the simulation data pre-stored in the mainunit, and start the power fluctuation simulation. After that, use the measurement function to readthe measured output value.
d) Obtain status register
After setting the warning status transition filter and the warning event enable register, obtain thestatus byte to check for the warning state.
These explanations are intended for helping you understand the remote command control procedure,
and thus omit general programming considerations such as error detection processing and variable
initialization processing.
For the VISA library installation, see the document from the VISA library distributors.

5.6 Cautions in Programming

5.6
a)Cautions in Programming
When a program command send from the computer is interrupted on the way, an error may occur
in the next program command. If there was an interruption on the way, perform the device clear.

b)

When the computer interrupts receiving on the way after the computer sent a query message thendata transfer was started with the DP power source specified as talker, the DP power source may
freeze awaiting for send. If there was an interruption on the way, perform the device clear.

c)

After the computer sent a query message, if the computer sends another query message without
specifying the DP power source as talker, the response to the first query may be returned with thetrailing response to the next one (without delimiter).
When the DP power source does not work as talker after a query message is sent, perform thedevice clear.

7.3 Code Used

7.3

Code Used

The DP power source as the listener can accept ISO 7-bit codes (JIS/ASCII), except when receiving
binary data, and ignores MSB of 8-bit data (e.g., parity). Any program codes are interpreted andexecuted with no case sensitivity. However, the control characters except <CR>, <LF>, and <TAB>(codes from 0 to 8, B, D to 1F, and 7F in hexadecimal) are ignored.
As the talker, it sends ISO 7-bit codes (JIS or ASCII) with no parity except when sending binary data
(MSB of 8-bit data = 0). All alphabetical characters in the program code are sent in uppercase.
When binary data is sent and received, all 8-bit patterns are valid and the standard IEEE floating
point format (including any control codes) is supported.
