Operating the Power Supply Locally 3 
Series N5700 User’s Guide  41 
To re-enable the output after it has shut down, you must disable the 
Shut-Off signal. In Auto-Restart mode, operation resumes 
automatically. In Safe-Start mode the Shut-Off function is latched. 
You must also press the OUT ON button or send an 
OUTPut:PROTection:CLEar command to resume operation. 
The Shut-Off function can be used to shut down multiple power 
supplies in a daisy-chain fashion as explained later in this chapter. It 
can also be used to reset the OVP and OCP as previously described.

NOTE 
Because this function is edge-triggered, it may not be triggered by every state 
change. For example, after applying AC power, the output will not be disabled 
by the Shut Off function if the Shut-Off input is in the shut-off state. This is 
because the unit has not detected an on-to-off signal transition. 
Enable/Disable Terminals 
CAUTION 
To prevent possible damage to the unit, do not connect the Enable + or Enable – 
terminals to the positive or negative output terminals. 
Enable/Disable terminals are available on the J1 connector to enable 
or disable the power supply output. This function is level-triggered. 
Simply connect a switch or relay between J1 pins 1 and 14. This 
function is activated by SW1 setup switch 9. 
These pins disable the output when they are opened. When the 
output is disabled, the PROT indicator on the front panel will blink. 
To re-enable the output after it has shut down, you must short the 
Enable + and Enable – terminals. In Auto-Restart mode, operation 
resumes automatically. In Safe-Start mode the Enable/Disable 
function is latched. You must also press the OUT ON button or send 
an OUTPut:PROTection:CLEar command to resume operation.
