CURRent:TRIGgered
{<current>|MINimum|MAXimum}
This command programs the pending triggered current level.
The pending triggered current level is a stored value that is
transferred to the output terminals when a trigger occurs. A
pending triggered level is not affected by subsequent
CURRent commands.
CURRent:TRIGgered? [MINimum|MAXimum]
This query returns the triggered current level presently
programmed. If no triggered level is programmed, the
CURRent level is returned. CURR:TRIG? MAX and
CURR:TRIG? MIN return the highest and lowest
programmable triggered current levels.
CURRent:PROTection
{<current>|MINimum|MAXimum}
This command sets the current level at which the
overcurrent protection (OCP) circuit will trip. If the peak
output current exceeds the OCP level, then the output
current is programmed to zero. The Questionable Status
register “OC” bit is set (refer to “SCPI status system” on
page 108). An overcurrent condition can be cleared with the
CURR:PROT:CLE command after the condition that caused
the OCP trip is removed.
CURRent:PROTection? {MINimum|MAXimum}
This query returns the overcurrent protection trip level
presently programmed. CURR:PROT? MAX and CURR:PROT?
MIN return the maximum and minimum programmable
overcurrent trip levels.
