Using the APPLy Command
The APPLy command provides the most straightforward
method to program the power supply over the remote
interface. You can select the output voltage and current in
one command.
APPLy {<voltage>| DEF | MIN | MAX}[,{<current>| DEF |
MIN | MAX}]
This command is a combination of VOLTage and CURRent
commands.
The APPLy command changes the power supply’s output to
the newly programmed values only if the programmed values
are valid within the presently selected range. An execution
error will occur if the programmed values are not valid
within the selected range.
You can substitute MINimum, MAXimum, or DEFault in place
of a specific value for the voltage and current parameters.
For more details of parameters, refer to
Table 3- 2 for each
model.
If you specify only one parameter of the APPLy command,
the power supply regards it as the voltage setting value.
APPLy?
This command queries the power supply’s present voltage
and current setting values and returns a quoted string. The
voltage and current are returned in sequence as shown in
the sample string below (the quotation marks are returned
as part of the string).
