B-3
B.5 INITiate[:IMMediate] COMMAND
INIT[:IMM]
Syntax: Short Form: INIT:[IMM] Long Form: INITiate[:IMMediate]
Description: Enables a single trigger. This command enables a single trigger. A *TRG command completes the
sequence. Upon receipt of the *TRG command, the power supply will return to the commanded values
of voltage and current established by the VOLT:TRIG and CURR:TRIG commands. After a *TRG com-
mand has been received, subsequent *TRG commands have no effect unless preceded by INIT or
INIT:CONT ON. Related Commands: *TRG, TRIG. (See example, Figure B-1.)
B.6 INITiate:CONTinuous COMMAND
INIT:CONT
Syntax: Short Form: INIT:CONT {ON | OFF} or {1 | 0} (1 = on, 0 = off)
Long Form: INITiate:CONTinuous {ON | OFF} or {1 | 0} (1 = on, 0 = off)
Description: INIT:CONT ON enables continuous triggers.; INIT:CONT OFF disables continuous triggers. If
INIT:CONT is OFF, then INIT[:IMM] arms the trigger system for a single trigger. If INIT:CONT is ON,
then the trigger system is continuously armed and INIT[:IMM] is redundant. Executing *RST command
sets INIT:CONT to ON. (See example, Figure B-1.)
B.7 INITiate:CONTinuous QUERY
INIT:CONT?
Syntax: Short Form: INIT:CONT? Long Form: INITiate:CONTinuous?
Return Value: 1 or 0
Description: Determines whether continuous triggers are enabled or disabled. Power supply returns value of
INIT:CONT flag: “1” = continuous triggers are enabled (INIT:CONT ON); “0” = continuous triggers dis-
abled (INIT:CONT OFF). (See example, Figure B-1.)
B.8 MEASure[:SCALar]:CURRent[:DC]? QUERY
MEAS:CURR?
Syntax: Short Form: MEAS[:SCAL]:CURR[:DC]?
Long Form: MEASure[:SCALar]:CURRent[:DC]?
Return Value: (digits with decimal point and Exponent)
Description: Measures actual current. This query returns the actual value of output current as determined by the
programmed value of voltage and current and load conditions. During calibration this command
returns the measurement tolerance (See example, Figure B-1.)
B.9 MEASure[:SCALar]:VOLTage[:DC]? QUERY
MEAS:VOLT?
Syntax: Short Form: MEAS[:SCAL]:VOLT[:DC]?
Long Form: MEASure[:SCALar]:VOLTage[:DC]?
Return Value: (digits with decimal point and Exponent)
Description: Measures actual voltage. This query returns the actual value of output voltage (measured at the
sense terminals) as determined by the programmed value of voltage and current and load conditions.
(See example, Figure B-1.)
B.10 MEMory:RELoad COMMAND
MEM:REL
Syntax: Short Form: MEM:REL Long Form: MEMory:RELoad
Description: Restores variables to power-up state by reloading all saved variables with data from non-vola-
tile RAM.
B.11 MEMory:UPDate COMMAND
MEM:UPD
Syntax: Short Form: MEM:UPD {INT | REF | LIM | SER | CONT | OUTP}
Long Form: MEMory:UPDate {INTerface | SERial | LIMits | REFerence | CONTrast | OUTPut}
Description: Saves selected variables. MEM:UPD INT saves GPIB address, Language (SCPI or CIIL) and all
SYST:SET (PAR. B.116) variables. MEM:UPD REF saves Reference Input state (Fixed, External, or
Ext Ref Lvl) and the Protection Limit reference state (Fixed, External or Lesser) described in Table 3-
15. MEM:UPD SER saves the serial communication state, baud rate, pace control and echo informa-
tion. MEM:UPD LIM saves limits for voltage and current and the maximum allowable protection values
for voltage and current. MEM:UPD CONT saves the display contrast and background settings for the
next power-up cycle. MEM:UPD OUTP saves the power supply on/off state and the mode of opera-
tion. Related commands: SYST:COMM:GPIB:ADDR, SYST:LANG, SYST:SET, VOLT:LIM, CURR:LIM,
CURR:PROT:LIM, VOLT:PROT:LIM, DISP:COL, DISP:CONT. See PAR. 3.5.2.2 and Figure 3-16 for
special programming considerations.
