Notes:
1. The host must allow a minimum ‘no response’ time out of at least 100ms. This command
requires the slave to perform multiple memory accesses and therefore it can take significant
time to process.
2. A command type of 1 (set) is only allowed if the power supply is in host control mode (“t”
command).
3. This command stores the specified waveform to a central database of waveforms in non-volatile
memory. Any waveform can be run on any channel by specifying the appropriate waveform
index as the active waveform using the “s” command.
4. The waveform location, starting link and ending link number fields must not be left empty. An
empty data field in one of these locations will result in a NAK response.
5. This is a variable length command; the length depends on the starting and ending link numbers.
Any number of links can be specified. If the message length does not correlate with the starting
and ending link numbers a NAK response will be sent and no action is taken.
6. The ending link number must be equal to or greater than the starting link number.
7. Waveforms should start at link one in order to be properly loaded when selected from the front
panel control. If the waveform will only be selected by the host and the host properly sets the
home link to the start link then the start link can be any link, as long as it is numerically less than
the end link.
8. To execute a waveform that has been downloaded with the “w” command the active waveform
index (in the “s” command) must be set to the waveform index that was used in the “w”
command to download the waveform and the output type must be set to “Custom”. A waveform
is executed when the unit is placed in operate mode. Links are executed in numerical order
starting with the home link. Links will continue to execute until a link having a zero ramp
duration is reached. When a link having a zero ramp duration is reached control will return to
the home link and execution will continue. Both the home link and the active waveform are
specified in the “s” command.
9. The home link value (setup command “s”) can be changed at any time. Changing the home link
value will change where execution is started when going to operate mode and which link is
executed after a link having a zero ramp duration is reached.
10. When the “w” command is acknowledged the power supply has stored the waveform in the
specified location. Waveforms are stored in non-volatile memory each time the “w” command is
used to send a waveform. Avoid sending waveforms unless the waveform needs to be changed
since there are a finite number of times that the waveform memory can be written (around
