ADJOUT?
Description Sequential Command.
Returns the adjusted output magnitude and frequency. The adjusted output magnitude is
the output after modification by the front panel knob or the INCR remote command. In all
output functions but resistance, ADJOUT? behaves exactly like OUT?. In the resistance
function, OUT? returns the actual calibrator’s output, which cannot be adjusted, and
ADJOUT? returns what would be the reading on the Control Display in direct operation. The
frequency is always the present output frequency.
Parameter None
Response
1. (Float) Output amplitude
2. (String) Units (V, DBM, A, or OHM)
3. (Float) Frequency (0 if dc or ohms)
Examples
1.256983E+01,V,0 (12.56983V)
1.883E-01,A,4.42E+02 (188.3 mA, 442 Hz)
1.9E+06,OHM,0 (1.9 MΩ)
BOOST
Description
Overlapped Command, ignored if not in remote.
Activates and deactivates an accessory amplifier.
Parameter
ON Activates the appropriate amplifier for the type of output)
OFF Deactivates the active amplifier
Example BOOST ON
Activates the appropriate amplifier if the last OUT command selected an output supported
by the attached amplifier.
BTYPE
Description Sequential command, ignored if not in remote.
Selects the accessory amplifiers for current and voltage boost. If the BOOST command is
active when BTYPE is received, BTYPE does not take effect until the next time the BOOST
command is received. The setting of BTYPE remains even after the power is turned off.
Parameter One of the following:
VB5725 (Selects the 5725A for voltage boost)
IB5725 (Selects the 5725A for current boost)
Example: BTYPE IB5725
Selects Model 5725A as the current amplifier.
