B.37 OUTPut[:STATe]? QUERY

OUTP?

Syntax:

Short Form: OUTP[:STAT]?

Long Form: OUTPut[:STATe]?

Return Value: (0 or 1)

Description: Indicates whether power supply output is enabled or disabled. Returns 0 if output disabled,

returns 1 if output enabled. Related Commands: OUTP. (See example, Figure B-1.)

B.38 [SOURce:]CURRent[:LEVel][:IMMediate][:AMPlitude] COMMAND

CURR

Syntax:

Short Form: [SOUR:]CURR[:LEV][:IMM][:AMP]
Long Form: [SOURce:]CURRent[:LEVel][:IMMediate][:AMPlitude]
= digits with decimal point and Exponent, e.g., 2.71E+1 for 27.1

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
CURR:LIM[:HIGH] value, error message -222,”Data out of range” is posted in output queue. Related
Commands: *RCL, *SAV, CURR:LIM[:HIGH]. (See example, Figure B-1.)

B.39 [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 con-
ditions. The CURR? MAX query returns the maximum current allowed for a particular model. CURR?
Returns programmed current value. CURR? MIN returns minimum current allowed for power supply
(always 0). Related Commands: CURR. (See example, Figure B-1.)

B.40 [SOURCE:]CURRENT:LIMIT[:HIGH] COMMAND

CURR:LIM[:HIGH]

Syntax:

Short Form: [SOUR:]CURR:LIM[:HIGH]
Long Form: [SOURce:]CURRent:LIMit[:HIGH]
= digits with decimal point and Exponent, e.g., 2.71E+1 for 27.1

Description: Sets limit for maximum power supply output current. If the value exceeds the current protection

value (set by CURR:PROT, see PAR. B.44), error message -222,”Data out of range” is posted in the
output queue. NOTE: If the current limit is changed, any previously established trigger levels higher
than the new limit must be reprogrammed to be lower than the new limit; otherwise triggers will cause
the output to exceed the new limit. Once the limit is established, the unit will not accept trigger values
higher than the programmed limit. Related Commands: CURR. (See PAR. 3.3.5.1 and Figure 3-2 for
special programming considerations. See example, Figure B-4.)

B.41 [SOURce:]CURRent:LIMit[:HIGH]? QUERY

CURR:LIM[:HIGH]?

Syntax:

Short Form: [SOUR:]CURR:LIM[:HIGH]? Long Form: [SOURce:]CURRent:LIMit[:HIGH]?
Return Value: = digits with decimal point and Exponent, e.g., 2.71E+1 for 27.1

Description: Returns value representing current limit set by CURR:LIM[:HIGH] command. Related Com-

mands: CURR:LIM[:HIGH], CURR. (See example, Figure B-4.)
