In continuous operation, a repetitive pulse train switches between two load levels, a main
level (which can be either the immediate or triggered level) and a transient level. The rate at
which the level changes is determined by the slew time (see slew time descriptions for CC,
CP, CR, or CV mode as applicable). In addition, the frequency and duty cycle of the
continuous pulse train are programmable. Use the following commands to program
continuous transients:

MODe:CURRent

; the CC mode is active

TRANsient:MODE CONTinuous

;

CURRent 5
CURRent:TLEVel 10
CURRent:TRANsient:FREQuency 1000
CURRent:TRANsient:DUTy 40

; remain at 10 amps for 40% of the period

INPut ON
TRANsient ON
