supply (+6V, +25V, or -25V output) to be monitored on the display and allow knob

adjustment o that supply.

2Tracking enable / disable key Enables / disables the track mode o ±25V supplies.

3isplay limit key Shows the voltage and current limit values on the display and

allows knob adjustment or setting limit values.

4Recall operating state key Recalls a previously stored operating state rom

location “1”, “2”, or “3”.

5Store operating state / Local key1 Stores an operating state in location “1”, “2”,

or “3” / or returns the power supply to local mode rom remote inter ace mode.

6Error / Calibrate key2 Displays error codes generated during operations, sel -test

clockwise or counter clockwise.

10 Resolution selection keys Move the lashing digit to the right or le t.

11 Voltage/current adjust selection key Selects the knob unction to voltage control or

current control.

1The key can be used as the “Local” key when the power supply is in the remote

interface mode.

2You can enable the “calibration mode” by holding down this key when you

turn on the power supply.

3You can use it as the “Secure” or “Unsecure” key when the power supply is

in the calibration mode.

Front-Panel Voltage and Current Limit Settings

You can set the voltage and current limit values from the front panel

using the following method

1Press the key a ter turning on the power supply.

2Set the knob to the voltage control mode or current control mode using the

voltage/current adjust selection key.

3Move the blinking digit to the appropriate position using the resolution selection keys.

4Change the blinking digit to the desired value using the control knob.

5Press the key to enable the output. A ter about 5 seconds, the

display will go to the output monitor mode automatically to display the voltage

and current at the output.

Note All front panel keys and controls can be disabled with remote interface

commands. The Agilent 3631A must be in “Local” mode for the front panel

keys and controls to function.

Use the voltage/current adjust selection key, the resolution selection keys, and

the control knob to change the monitoring or limiting value of voltage or current

In This Book

General Information Chapter 1 contains a general description of your

power supply. This chapter also provides instructions for checking your

power supply, connecting to ac power, and selecting power-line voltage.

Initial Operation Chapter 2 ensures that the power supply develops its

rated outputs and properly responds to operation from the front panel.

Front-Panel Operation Chapter 3 describes in detail the use of

front-panel keys and how they are used to operate the power supply from

the front panel. This chapter also shows how to configure the power supply

for the remote interface and gives a brief introduction to the calibration

features.

Remote Interface Reference Chapter 4 contains reference information

to help you program the power supply over the remote interface. This

chapter also explains how to program for status reporting.

Error Messages Chapter 5 lists the error messages that may appear as you

are working with the power supply. Each listing contains information to help

you diagnose and solve the problem.

pplication Programs Chapter 6 contains some remote interface

applications to help you develop programs for your application.

Tutorial Chapter 7 describes basic operation of linear power supplies and

gives specific details on the operation and use of the Agilent E3631A power

supplies.

Specifications Chapter 8 lists the power supply’s specifications.

If you have questions relating to the operation of the power supply, call

1-800-452-4844 in the United States, or contact your nearest Agilent

Technologies Sales Office.
