Example 1: Enter into the battery discharge operation; set the termination voltage to 15 V, and the discharge current to 3 A; turn on the
load, and start the battery discharge operation; turn off the load and stop the battery discharge operation; clear the discharged time
and discharged capacity of the battery; exit the battery discharge operation.
For the above operating procedures, the corresponding SCPI commands should be:
INPUT OFF Turns off the load
BATTERY ON Activates the battery discharge operation screen
BATT:VOLT:OFF 15V Sets termination voltage to 15V
BATT:DIS:CURR 3A Sets discharge current to 3A
INPUT ON Turns on the load, and start battery discharge operation
INPUT OFF Turns off the load, and stop battery discharge operation
operationBATTERY OFF Exits the battery discharge operation
4.10 Saving and Recalling
The operating procedures for saving and recalling operation are shown below:
1 Press the key + key to enter into the saving menu, or press the key + key to enter into the recalling menu.
2 Press the Entry keys or the knob to select saving or recalling position.
3 Press the Enter key to confirm and exit the saving or recalling menu. If the saving is selected, the values of the 2-1 parameters will
be saved in the specified location (0-9) in EEPROM; if the recalling is selected, the values of the parameters should be the values
saved in specified location in EEPROM.
Example 1: Set the mode to CCL; set the current value to 2 A; turn on the load; save the settings in Location 0 in EEPROM; the next
time the load is turned on, these settings will become the power-on settings.
For the above operating procedures, the corresponding SCPI commands should be:
MODE CCH Sets the load to CCH status
CURR 2 Sets the current value to 2A
*SAV 0 Saves the present settings in Location 0 in EEPROM
