BIT 4882 030507
B-3
Description: Sets programmed current level at power supply output. This command programs output current
to a specific value; actual output current will depend on load conditions. If the value exceeds the max-
imum for the model being programmed, error message -222,”Data out of range” is posted in output
queue. (See example, Figure B-1.)
B.8 [SOURce:]CURRent[:LEVel][:IMMediate][:AMPlitude] QUERY
CURR?
Syntax: Short Form: [SOUR:]CURR[:LEV][:IMM][:AMP]? MIN, MAX
Long Form: [SOURce:]CURRent[:LEVel][:IMMediate][:AMPlitude]? MIN, MAX
Return Value: = digits with decimal point and Exponent, e.g., 2.71E+1 for 27.1
Description: Returns either the programmed value, maximum value, or minimum value of current. The
CURR? query returns the programmed value of current. Actual output current will depend on load
conditions. The CURR?MAX query returns the maximum current allowed for a particular model.
CURR? Returns programmed current value. CURR? MAX returns maximum current allowed for
power supply. CURR? MIN returns minimum current allowed for power supply (always 0). Related
Commands: CURR. (See example, Figure B-1.)
B.9 [SOURce:]CURRent:[:LEVel]TRIGgered[:AMPlitude] COMMAND
CURR:TRIG
Syntax: Short Form: [SOUR:]CURR[:LEV]:TRIG[:AMP]
Long Form: [SOURce:]CURRent[:LEVel]:TRIGgered[:AMPlitude]
= digits with decimal point and Exponent, e.g., 2.71E+1 for 27.1
Description: Programs current value to be transferred to output by *TRG or TRIG commands. This command
can be used to reset many power supplies to preselected parameters by issuing a single *TRG or
TRIG command. Actual output current will depend on load conditions. If the value exceeds the maxi-
mum for the model being programmed, error message -222,”Data out of range” is posted in output
queue. Related Commands: CURR, *TRG, TRIG. (See example, Figure B-1.)
B.10 [SOURce:]CURRent:[:LEVel]TRIGgered[:AMPlitude]? QUERY
CURR:TRIG?
Syntax: Short Form: [SOUR:]CURR[:LEV]:TRIG[:AMP]?
Long Form: [SOURce:]CURRent[:LEVel]:TRIGgered[:AMPlitude]?
Return Value: = digits with decimal point and Exponent, e.g., 2.71E+1 for 27.1
Description: Returns the current value established by CURR:TRIG command. (See example, Figure B-1.)
B.11 .[SOURce:]VOLTage[:LEVel][:IMMediate][:AMPlitude] COMMAND
VOLT
Syntax: Short Form: [SOUR:]VOLT[:LEV][:IMM][:AMP]
Long Form: [SOURce:]VOLTage[:LEVel][:IMMediate][:AMPlitude]
= digits with decimal point and Exponent, e.g., 2.71E+1 for 27.1
Description: Sets programmed voltage level at power supply output. This command programs output voltage
to a specific value; actual output voltage will depend on load conditions. If the value exceeds the max-
imum for the model being programmed, error message -222,”Data out of range” is posted in output
queue. (See example, Figure B-1.
B.12 [SOURce:]VOLTage[:LEVel][:IMMediate][:AMPlitude]? QUERY
VOLT?
Syntax: Short Form: [SOUR:]VOLT[:LEV][:IMM][:AMP]? {MIN | MAX}
Long Form: [SOURce:]VOLTage[:LEVel][:IMMediate][:AMPlitude]? {MIN | MAX}
Description: Identifies programmed voltage, maximum allowable voltage, or minimum voltage (always 0).
The VOLT? query returns the programmed value of voltage. Actual output voltage will depend on load
conditions. The VOLT?MAX query returns the maximum voltage allowed for a particular model.
VOLT? MIN returns minimum voltage allowed for power supply (always 0). Related Commands:
VOLT. (See example, Figure B-1
