SOURCE SCPI Command Reference

In the following table a "C" in the SCPI column indicates that the command is SCPI-compliant.
The Q? column indicates whether the command can also be used for querying.

Command Description

SCPI

Q?

SOURce

Source subsystem.

C

:CURRent

Sets the output current in amps (default) or in
milliamps.

C Q

[:LEVel]

Sets the output current in amps (default) or in
milliamps.

C Q

[:IMMediate]

Sets the output current in amps (default) or in
milliamps.

C Q

[:AMPLitude]
<0+NRf>

Sets the output current in amps (default) or in
milliamps.

C Q

:TRIGgered

Sets the value of the output current to be
implemented by the trigger.

C Q

:CLEar

Clears the trigger mode.

[:AMPLitude]
<0+NRf>

Sets the value of the output current to be
implemented by the trigger.

C Q

:LIMit

Sets an upper soft limit on the programmed
output current for the supply. The soft limit
prevents the supply from being inadvertently
programmed above the soft limit, thus
providing a method for protecting the load
against damaging currents.

C Q

[:AMPLitude]
<0+NRf>

Sets an upper soft limit on the programmed
output current for the supply.

C Q

:RAMP <0+NRf>
<0+NRf>

Sets the output current to ramp from the
present value to the specified value (first
argument) in the specified time (second
argument). See Ramp Function description
below.

N Q

:ABORt

Aborts ramping and clears trigger mode.

:ALL?

Returns the ramping status of all channels.

:TRIGgered
<0+NRf>

<0+NRf>

Sets the output current to ramp from the
present value to the specified value (first
argument) in the specified time (second
argument) upon the trigger command. See
Ramp description below.

N Q

:ONLine?

Returns the integer value 1(ONLINE) or 0
(OFFLINE) of the channel online status.
