Description
Example
TX> :SYST:SET?
RX> :SYST:SET MEAS, 0.0
At the current system set, when the instrument is switched on, the controller will be in
measurement mode and the set-point will be zero.
This command can set the instrument to control mode, immediately after switch-on, with a
set-point to 100 mbar, by sending:
TX> :SYST:SET CONT, 100.0
TX> :SYST:SET?
RX> :SYST:SET CONT, 100.0000000
Note:
The controller will not change mode without a switch on/off process. During normal
operations use the following command example:
TX> :SOUR 2000
TX> :OUTP 1
This switches on the controller immediately with a set-point of 2000 mbar.
