[SOURce:]ARB:VOLTage:CDWell[:LEVel] ? (@<chanlist>)
Specifies the level of each current or voltage point in a constant-dwell Arb.
Current and voltage CD ARBs share settings, so setting the current CD ARB resets the voltage CD
ARB level to its default value and vice-versa. A comma-delimited list of up to 65,535 points may be
programmed.
Parameter Typical Return
Current: 0 - maximum
Voltage: 0 - maximum
The maximum value varies, depending on the currentor voltage rating
of the power module. *RST 1 pointset to the minimum value.

Program five voltagepoints: ARB:VOLT:CDW20,21,22,23,24,(@1)
l For better performance, the list of voltage points can be sent as a definite length binary block
instead of an ASCII list.
l The return format depends on the settings of the FORMat:BORDer and FORMat[:DATA] com-
mands. When the data format is set to ASCII, returned values are comma separated. Only one
channel can be queried when the format is ASCII. When the data format is set to REAL, data is
returned as single precision floating point numbers in definite length arbitrary block response
format. Each block contains all the records for one of the channels given in the <chanlist> para-
meter. If multiple channels are given, then each definite length arbitrary block of data is separated
by a comma.

[SOURce:]ARB:CURRent:CDWell:DWELl? (@<chanlist>)
[SOURce:]ARB:VOLTage:CDWell:DWELl <value>,(@<chanlist>)
[SOURce:]ARB:VOLTage:CDWell:DWELl? (@<chanlist>)
Specifies the dwell time in seconds for each current or voltage point in a constant-dwell ARB
Current and voltage CD ARBs share settings, so setting this parameter for a current CD ARB also
changes the voltage dwell value and vice versa. Programmed values can range from 10.24
microseconds to 0.30 seconds. Values are rounded to the nearest 10.24-microsecond increment.
Parameter Typical Return
0.00001024 - 0.30, *RST 0.001 <dwell value>
Program a constant-dwell currenttime: ARB:CURR:CDW:DWEL 0.2,(@1)
Program a constant-dwell voltage time: ARB:VOLT:CDW:DWEL 0.2,(@1)
