(Harmonic command) Make the frequency of one output a multiple of another output
for the ac voltage or ac power functions (sinewaves only). For example, in dual ac
voltage, have the frequency of the voltage output on the 5500A Calibrator front panel
NORMAL terminals at 60 Hz and the frequency of the voltage output on the AUX
terminals at the 7th harmonic (420 Hz). The range for the harmonics is 1 to 50.
You can assign the fundamental frequency output on either the 5500A Calibrator
NORMAL terminals or AUX terminals, or 5725A Amplifier BOOST terminals (if a
5725A Amplifier is connected) using the second PRI and SEC parameters. Omitting the
second parameter leaves the fundamental and the harmonic locations unchanged.
Parameters: <value>, PRI (fundamental at 5500A NORMAL terminals)
<value>, SEC (fundamental at 5500A AUX terminals or 5725A
Amplifier BOOST terminals, if a 5725A is connected)
Example: HARMONIC 5, PRI
Load the fundamental frequency at the primary (PRI) output (5500A Calibrator
NORMAL terminals), and the 5th harmonic frequency is at the secondary output (5500A
Calibrator AUX terminals, or 5725A Amplifier BOOST terminals, if a 5725A Amplifier
is connected and enabled). For example, if the fundamental frequency output is 60 Hz,
the harmonic frequency output is 300 Hz.

(Harmonic query) Return the present instrument harmonic characteristic and location of
the fundamental output PRI (primary, the 5500A Calibrator NORMAL terminals) or
SEC (secondary, the 5500A Calibrator AUX terminals, or 5725A BOOST terminals, if a
5725A Amplifier is connected and enabled).
Response: <value>, PRI (harmonic value, fundamental at primary output)
<value>, SEC (harmonic value, fundamental at secondary output)
Example: HARMONIC? returns 5, SEC
Return the 5th harmonic frequency is selected, and the fundamental is at the secondary
output (5500A Calibrator AUX terminals, or 5725A Amplifier BOOST terminals, if a
5725A Amplifier is connected and enabled). Therefore, the harmonic frequency appears
at the primary, or 5500A Calibrator NORMAL terminals.
