[SOURce:]CURRent:SAS:ISC <value>, (@<chanlist>)

[SOURce:]CURRent:SAS:ISC? (@<chanlist>)

Sets the Isc (short-circuit current) in SAS mode. Units are in amperes.

Parameter Typical Return

0 – 10 (MP4361A), *RST 1% of nominal rating

0 – 8 (MP4362A), *RST 1% of nominal rating

<chanlist> one or more channels

Sets the short-circuit current to 4.5 A on channels 1 and 2: CURR:SAS:ISC 5, (@1,2)

When a single Isc, Imp, Voc, or Vmp parameter is sent, it is checked along with the unchanged

parameters to determine if all parameters and the resulting curve are within acceptable limits. If a

parameter is outside the limits, an error occurs and no new curve is programmed. If all four para-

meters are programmed individually, four curves are produced as each parameter is programmed.

When programming an entirely new curve, it is best to send all parameters on the same program

line. In this case, the instrument checks that all parameters are acceptable. The parameters can be

sent in any order. Any parameter not programmed takes on the value of the previous curve.

[SOURce:]CURRent:SAS:SCALe <percent>|MIN|MAX, (@<chanlist>)

[SOURce:]CURRent:SAS:SCALe? [MIN|MAX,] (@<chanlist>)

Set a scale factor for the curve in both Curve and Table modes. The output current will be equal to this

percentage multiplied by the current computed from the SAS curve or table. This is often used to

simulate variations in solar cell irradiance.

Parameter Typical Return

<percent> 1 to 100, *RST 100 100

<chanlist> one or more channels

Sets the scale factor for the current to 90%: CURR:SAS:SCAL 90, (@2)

When on, the output will respond immediately to any change in this setting.

[SOURce:]CURRent:TABLe:NAME <"name">, (@<chanlist>)

[SOURce:]CURRent::TABLe:NAME? (@<chanlist>)

Activates a user-defined table when the unit is operating in Table mode. If the unit is not in Table

mode, the specified table becomes the active table when Table mode is invoked.

If you send the command without specifying a table name, it de-selects the active table. This allows

the MEMory:DELete:ALL command to delete all tables in both volatile and non-volatile memory. When

operating in Table mode, an error is generated if this command is sent without a table name.
