SCPI Instrument Command List
Range coupling Amplitude
Description Use this command to program the offset current of the OUTPUT signal.
Note that to set the OUTPUT levels in terms of current, you first have to
execute the
[:SOURce]:HOLD CURRent
command to enable the
:SOURce]:CURRent
subsystem.
The available current range is limited by the combination of:
• Specified Voltage limits
• Actual OUTPUT Impedance setting
:OUTPut:IMPedance
• Actual Expected Load impedance setting
Example To program the offset current of the output signal:
Command :CURR[1]:HIGH
Long
[:SOURce]:CURRent[1][:LEVel][:IMMediate]:HIGH

):
–82 mA to 152 mA typical
Description Use this command to program the high level current of the OUTPUT
signal. Note that to set the OUTPUT levels in terms of current, you first
:HOLD CURR
:CURR:OFF 50MA
Enable CURRENT subsystem
Set OUTPUT offset to 50 mA
Amplitude = High – Low
Offset =
