OUTPut Subsystem
The Output subsystem controls the output state, power-on, protection, and relay functions.
OUTPut[:STATe] 0|OFF|1|ON, (@<chanlist>)
OUTPut[:STATe]? (@<chanlist>)
This command enables or disables the specified output. The enabled state is ON (1); the disabled state
is OFF (0). The state of a disabled output is a condition of zero output voltage and zero source current.
The state of a disabled output is a condition of zero output voltage and zero source current.
Parameter Typical Return
0|OFF|1|ON, *RST OFF 0or1
<chanlist> one or more channels
Turns the output off on channel 2: OUTPOFF (@2)
l
When output is enabled, the front-panel status indicator changes from OFF to indicate the oper-
ating status of the instrument (CV, CC, etc.).

Because of internal circuit start-up procedures, Output On may take up to 75 milliseconds to com-
plete its function. Conversely, Output Off may take up to 75 milliseconds to complete its function.
To mitigate these built-in delays, you can program the output to zero volts rather than using the
output on/off function.
OUTPut:INHibit:MODE LATChing|OFF
OUTPut:INHibit:MODE?
Sets the operating mode of the remote inhibit digital pin. The inhibit function shuts down the output in
response to an external signal on the Inhibit input pin. The Inhibit mode is stored in non-volatile
memory. See Programming the Digital Port.
LATChing - a logic-true signal on the Inhibit input causes the output state to latch OFF. The output
remains disabled until the Inhibit input is returned to logic-false and the latched INH status bit is
cleared by sending the OUTPut:PROTection:CLEar command or a protection clear command from the
front panel.
OFF - The Inhibit input is ignored.
Parameter Typical Return
LATChing|OFF LATC or OFF
Sets the Inhibit Input to Latching mode: OUTP:INH:MODE LATC
