INSTrument[:SELect] {OUTPut1|OUTPut2|OUT1|OUT2}
This command selects the output to be programmed by the output identifier.
The outputs of the power supply are considered as two logical instruments.
The INSTrument command provides a mechanism to identify and select an
output.
When one output is selected, the other output is unavailable for programming
until selected. The commands which are affected by the INSTrument
command are the output setting command (SOURce), measurement command
(MEASure), and calibration command (CALibration).
INSTrument[:SELect]?
Return the currently selected output by the INSTrument[:SELect] or
INSTrument:NSELect command. The returned value is OUTP1 or OUTP2.
INSTrument:NSELect {1|2}
This command selects the output to be programmed by a numeric value
instead of the output identifier used in the INSTrument:NSELect or
INSTrument[:SELect] command. 1 selects output1, and 2 selects output2.
INSTrument:NSELect?
Return the currently selected output by the INSTrument[:SELect]? or
INSTrument[:NSELect]? command. The returned parameter is 1 for
output1, and 2 for output2.
INSTrument:COUPle[:TRIGger] {ON|OFF}
Enable or disable a coupling between two logical outputs of the power supply.
The couple command consists of an optional subsystem node followed by a
signal parameter. The only valid parameter for the optional subsystem node is
the TRIGger subsystem. If no node follows the couple command, TRIGger
subsystem is assumed to be coupled. The parameter indicates to which logical
outputs the specified coupling is to apply. A list of outputs specifies a
particular set of logical outputs to be coupled. At *RST, all outputs are
uncoupled.
