I have a Model 2281S from Keithley and want to know how to perform battery simulation.
Also, how can I generate new models?
And is there software available for this?

You can perform battery simulation directly on the 2281S and generate charge models using the unit. The manual provides complete instructions and capabilities:
https://www.tek.com/en/tektronix-and-keithley-dc-power-supplies/2281s-manual/series-2281-precision-dc-supply-and-battery

We do provide software options for generating and running simulations.
Our KickStart software has a Battery Simulator Specialty Application that will allow you to create a model using the 2380 Series electronic loads and then run your simulation on the 2281S. You can find More information on the KickStart landing page:

You can also find a video showing the software in use here:

If you have used our graphical TTI Source Measure Units in the past to generate your models, such as the Model 2450, you can use the script attached.
