Example
The following program segment shows how to use the INSTrument:COUPle
command to couple two outputs with voltage and current triggered levels. The
power supply is set to the newly programmed values as set by the
VOLTage:TRIGgered and CURRent:TRIGgered commands.
INSTrument:COUPle[:TRIGger]?
Query the output coupling state of the power supply. The returned value is 0
(OFF) or 1 (ON).
MEASure:CURRent?
Query the current measured across the current sense resistor inside the power
supply.
MEASure[:VOLTage]?
Query the voltage measured at the sense terminals of the power supply.
OUTPut:TRACk[:STATe] {ON|OFF}
This command enables or disables the power supply to operate in the track
mode. See “Track Mode Operation” on page 61 for more information on
tracking operation. At *RST, the track mode is disabled.
INST:SEL OUT1
Select the output1.
VOLT:TRIG 6
Set the triggered level to 6 V.
CURR:TRIG 3
Set the triggered level to 3 A.
INST:SEL OUT2
Select the output2.
VOLT:TRIG 18
Set the triggered level to 18 V.
CURR:TRIG 0.7
Set the triggered level to 0.7 A.
INST:COUP:TRIG ON
Couple the output1 and the output2.
TRIG:SOUR IMM
Set the trigger to immediate.
INIT
Trigger the power supply to output the trigger values for the
output1 and output2 supplies.
