Protocol
ASCII based over USB-to-serial.
Some versions of the protocol description in manuals are incomplete or even erroneous.
| Command | Reply | Description | Remarks |
|---|---|---|---|
| GMOD\r | 3204\r OK\r |
Query model | Four-digit model code, e.g. 3202 for HCS-3202. |
| GETD\r | VVVVCCCCS\r OK\r |
Query displayed voltage, current and mode. | Four-digit voltage, e.g. 12.34; four-digit current, e.g. 12.34; status 0=constant voltage, 1=constant current. |
| SOUTn\r | OK\r | Disable output | Output on=0 (power-on default), off=1 |
| SESS\r | OK\r | Disable keyboard | Seems to time out after about 5 seconds. |
| ENDS\r | OK\r | Enable keyboard | When disabled with SESS. |
| VOLTnnn\r | OK\r | Set voltage to nn.n. | |
| CURRnnn\r | OK\r | Set current to nn.n or n.nn (model-dependant!). | |
| ... | ... | ... | Protocol description incomplete so far. |
