To enable the input, use the command:
INPut ON
Input Voltage
The input voltage is controlled with the VOLTage command. For example, to set the input voltage to 25
volts, use:
VOLTage 25
Input Current
All models have a programmable current function. The command to program the current is:
CURRent <n>
where <n> is the input current in amps.
Overcurrent Protection
The electronic load can also be programmed to turn off its input if the current protection level is
reached.
As explained in Section 3.3 Subsystem Commands, this protection feature is implemented by the
following command:
CURRent:PROTection:STATe ON | OFF
NOTE: Use CURRent:PROTection:DELay to prevent momentary current limit conditions caused by
programmed input changes from tripping the overcurrent protection.
Generating Triggers
You can generate a single trigger by sending the following command over the GPIB:
TRIGger:IMMediate
Note that this command will always generate a trigger. Use the TRIGger:SOURce command to select
other trigger sources such as the mainframe's external trigger input.
Programming Transients
Transient operation is used to synchronize input changes with internal or external trigger signals, and
