Subsystem Commands
SOURce Subsystem
For <CURRent|VOLTage>, specify CURRent for current output or VOLTage fo r
voltage output.
For <STARt|STOP>, specify STARt for the sweep start value, or STOP for the
sweep stop value.
Parameter data Sweep start or stop value. value (see “Source Output Ranges”
on page 2-36) |MINimum|MAXimum|DEFault (default is 0.0).
Parameter data type is NRf+. Query does not support
data=value.
The start and stop values can be expressed by the following formula, using the
center and span values set by the
[:SOURce]:<CURRent|VOLTage>:<CENTer|SPAN> command. So the last
command setting is effective for these sweep parameters.
start = center - span/2
stop = center + span/2
Query response data <newline>
data returns the present setting. If a parameter is specified, data returns the value
assigned to DEF, MIN, or MAX. Response data type is NR3.
Example :VOLT:STOP 10
:SOUR2:CURR:STAR?
[:SOURce]:<CURRent|VOLTage>:STEP
Sets the sweep step value of the current or voltage sweep output.
Syntax [:SOURce[c]]:<CURRent|VOLTage>:STEP step
[:SOURce[c]]:<CURRent|VOLTage>:STEP? [step]
For <CURRent|VOLTage>, specify CURRent for current output or VOLTage fo r
voltage output.
Parameter step Sweep step value. value (see “Source Output Ranges” on page
2-36) |MINimum|MAXimum|DEFault (default is 0). Parameter
data type is NRf+. Query does not support step=value.
The step value can be expressed by the following formula, using the points value set
by the
[:SOURce]:<CURRent|VOLTage>:POINts command and the span value set
by the [:SOURce]:<CURRent|VOLTage>:<CENTer|SPAN> command.
