VOLT:PROTection:CLEar
This command is used to clear the OVP state. Before sending this command, please increase
the upper limit of OVP or reduce the output voltage.
Note: Please remove the device that tripped this protection and then send the command again.
Command syntax: [SOURce:]VOLTage:PROTection:CLEar
[SOURce:]VOLTage:LIMIt[:LEVel]<voltage>
This command is used to set the limit of the output voltage.
Command syntax: [SOURce:]VOLTage:LIMIt[:LEVel] <NRf>
Parameter: MIN to MAX|MIN|MAX|DEF
Unit: V| mV| uV
Query syntax: [SOURce:]VOLTage:LIMIt[:LEVel]?
Return parameter: <NRf>
[SOURce:]APPLy {<voltage>|MIN|MAX} [,{<current> |MIN|MAX}]
This command combines two commands in one: “VOLTage, CURRent”. APPLy command will
only be effective when the setting values are within the range of the upper voltage and current
limits.
Command syntax: [SOURce:]APPLy <NRf>,<NRf>
Parameter: MIN to MAX|MIN|MAX
Unit: V, A
Query syntax: [SOURce:]APPLy?
Return parameter: <NRf>,<NRf>
Example: APPL 5,2 //sets output voltage to 5 V and output current to 2 A
5.8 MEASUREMENT Commands
MEASure[:SCALar]:VOLTage[:DC]?
This command is used to query the actual output voltage.
Command syntax: MEASure[:SCALar]:VOLTage[:DC]?
Parameter: None
Return parameter: <NRf>
Return parameter unit: V
Example: MEAS:VOLT?
FETCh:VOLTage?
This command is used to read the voltage to be handled in the sample cache. After sending the
command, the readings will be sent to the computer. This command does not affect the
instrument settings. This command does not trigger a measurement operation, and queries
only the latest available reading. Before reading the new reading, the command returns old
readings.
