To Use the Monitor
Requirement
Use the SCPI commands to realize the following functions:
 Monitor CH1.
 Set the monitor condition: >Volt, >Curr or >Power; set the voltage to 5V, the current to 3A and the
power to 15W; set the stop mode to OutpOff, Warning and Beeper.
 Enable the monitor.
Method
1 *IDN? /*Query the ID character string of the power supply to check whether
the remote communication is normal*/
2 :INST CH1 /*Select CH1*/
3 :MONI:VOLT:COND >V,OR /*Set the voltage monitor condition to “>Volt” and the logic relation to
“OR” */
4 :MONI:VOLT 5 /*Set the voltage of the monitor condition to 5V*/
5 :MONI:CURR:COND >C,OR /*Set the current monitor condition to “>Curr” and the logic relation to
“OR”*/
6 :MONI:CURR 3 /*Set the current of the monitor condition to 3A*/
7 :MONI:POWER:COND >P /*Set the power monitor condition to “>Power”*/
8 :MONI:POWER 15 /*Set the power of the monitor condition to 15W*/
9 :MONI:STOP OUTOFF,ON /*Enable the “OutpOff” stop mode*/
10 :MONI:STOP WARN,ON /*Enable the “Warning” stop mode*/
11 :MONI:STOP BEEPER,ON /*Enable the “Beeper” stop mode*/
12 :MONI ON /*Enable the monitor*/
