Function
Function and manual operation:
See explanation on page 33.
Programming
Setting command:
REPETITION n
Parameter: n (number)
Parameter type: Integer
Setting range 0 continuous repetition
1 to 255 sequence repetitions
Format: nnn
Default setting: unchanged (after RESET, *RST)
Example (HP Basic):
OUTPUT 713;"REPETITION 100"
{100 repetitions}
Query
Display the number of sequence repetitions.
Programming
Query command:
REPETITION?
Response string: REPETITION n
Length: 14 characters, fixed
Parameter: n (number))
Format: nnn
Example (HP Basic):
OUTPUT 713; "REPETITION?"
ENTER 713; A$
DISP A$
Display: REPETITION 100
SEQUENCE, SEQUENCE? – Automatic Sequential Recall of Stored
Settings
Function and manual operation:
See explanation on page 34.
Programming
Setting command:
SEQUENCE txt
Parameter: txt (status)
Parameter type: Text (character)
Setting range: GO SEQUENCE is started with Strt
command
HOLD
2)
Pause, suspend sequence at
current memory location
CONT
2)
Resume automatic sequence run
with the next valid memory location
STRT
3)
Execute the first valid memory
location, output is activated, step-
by-step control
STEP
3)
Execute the next valid memory
location
STOP
3)
Execute the stop address and end
the automatic sequence run or
step-by-step control
Example (HP Basic):
OUTPUT 713;"SEQUENCE GO"
Notes:
1) This function is modified as of software release 003.
ON Open SEQUENCE,
as of rel. 003
1
SEQUENCE always
open
OFF Close / exit SEQUENCE,
as of rel. 003
1
same function as
SEQUENCE STOP
Default setting: ON (after RESET, *RST)
2) HOLD and CONT are only available as of software release 003.
When you switch your KONSTANTER on, rel 00x appears at
the display, indicating which software release you have.
3) Step-by-step control, similar to external trigger function /
T_MODE RCL
If no executable data have been saved to the stop address,
the last setting remains valid and the output is deactivated.
Attention: Automatic and step-by-step sequence control
(external trigger or setting command) are not interlocked.
Query
Through software release 10:
Only for compatibility with existing programs for older device
versions. The response is always SEQUENCE ON.
Programming (as of software release 04.001)
Query command:
SEQUENCE?
Response string: SEQUENCE txt,n1,n2
Length: 21 characters, fixed
Parameter: txt (status)
n1,n2 (number of remaining repetitions,
current address)
Possible responses to text: “RUN”, “HOLD”, “RDY”
RUN: active sequence
HOLD: sequence suspended
RDY: device in initial state
Possible responses for number of remaining repetitions:
000: device in initial state,
no sequence running
001 ... 255: current number of remaining
repetitions
999: continuous repetition, no specified
number of repetitions
Example (HP Basic):
OUTPUT 713; "SEQUENCE?"
ENTER 713; A$
DISP A$
Display: SEQUENCE RUN,237,111
RUN: active sequence
237: current number of remaining
repetitions
111: current address (memory location)
