10.7 Limit Subsystem

This subsystem controls the voltage frequency and current limit of the power source. These
limits are set at the factory and depend on the power source rating. It is not accessible by
the user. The query format is accessible however.

Subsystem Syntax

LIMit:

CURRent?

Queries the upper current limit

FREQuency:

LOW? Queries the lower frequency limit

HIGH? Queries the upper frequency limit

VOLTage?

Queries the upper voltage limit


LIMit:CURRent?

This command queries the maximum current limit the power source will operate at in the low
voltage range.

Command Syntax

LIMit:CURRent

Parameters

maximum current limit at low voltage range

[command

protected]

Query Syntax

LIMit:CURRent?

Returned Parameters

LIMit:FREQuency:LOW?

This command queries the lower frequency limit of the power source. On the 2003RP-AV,
the frequency range may have been factory configured to a fixed single value. In this case,
the High and Low frequency limits will be set to the same value and both queries will return
the same number. Sending a frequency command with any value other than the set value
will result in a “-100, Command Error”.

Command Syntax

LIMit:FREQuency:LOW

Parameters

Low freq limit [command protected]

Query Syntax

LIMit:FREQuency:LOW?

Returned Parameters

LIMit:FREQuency:HIGH?

This command queries the upper frequency limit of the power source. On the 2003RP-AV,
the frequency range may have been factory configured to a fixed single value. In this case,
the High and Low frequency limits will be set to the same value and both queries will return
the same number. Sending a frequency command with any value other than the set value
will result in a “-100, Command Error”.

Command Syntax

LIMit:FREQuency:HIGH

Parameters

High freq limit [command protected]

Query Syntax

LIMit:FREQuency:HIGH?

Returned Parameters
