CURRent:PROTection:STATe {0|1|OFF|ON}
This command enables or disables the overcurrent protection 
function of the power supply. An overcurrent condition can 
be cleared with the CURR:PROT:CLE command after the 
condition that caused the OCP trip is removed. At *RST, this 
value is set to ON.
CURRent:PROTection:STATe?
This query returns the state of the overcurrent protection 
function. The returned parameter is 0 (OFF) or 1 (ON).
CURRent:PROTection:TRIPped?
This query returns a 1 if the overcurrent protection circuit 
is tripped and not cleared or a 0 if not tripped.
CURRent:PROTection:CLEar
This command causes the overcurrent protection circuit to 
be cleared. After this command, the output current is 
restored to the state it was in before the current protection 
tripped and the OCP trip level remains unchanged to the 
value presently programmed. Before sending this command, 
lower the output current below the trip OCP point, or raise 
the OCP trip level above the output setting.
VOLTage {<voltage>|MINimum|MAXimum|UP|DOWN}
This command programs the immediate voltage level of the 
power supply. The immediate level is the voltage value of the 
output terminals. 
The  VOLTage command changes the output of the power 
supply to the newly programmed value regardless of the 
output range presently selected.
You can substitute MINimum or MAXimum in place of a 
specific value for the voltage parameter. MIN selects the 
lowest voltage values of 0 V. MAX selects the highest voltage 
values allowed for the selected range.
