CURRent:PROTection:STATe
This command enables or disables the overcurrent (OC) protection function. If the
overcurrent protection function is enabled and the ac source exceeds the
programmed level, then the output is disabled and the Questionable Condition
status register OC bit is set (refer to “Programming the Status Registers” on
page 259 in Chapter 5, "Programming Examples"). An overcurrent condition can
be cleared with OUTPut:PROTection:CLEar after the cause of the condition is
removed.
NOTE
Use OUTP:PROT:DEL to prevent momentary current limit conditions caused by
programmed output changes from tripping the overcurrent protection.
