VOLTage:PROTection? [MINimum|MAXimum]
This query returns the overvoltage protection trip level
presently programmed. VOLT:PROT? MAX and VOLT:PROT?
MIN return the maximum and minimum programmable
overvoltage trip levels.
VOLTage:PROTection:STATe {0|1|OFF|ON}
This command enables or disables the overvoltage protection
function. An overvoltage condition can be cleared with the
VOLT:PROT:CLE command after the condition that caused
the OVP trip is removed. At *RST, this value is set to ON.
VOLTage:PROTection:STATe?
This query returns the state of the overvoltage protection
function. The returned parameter is 0 (OFF) or 1 (ON).
VOLTage:PROTection:TRIPped?
This query returns a 1 if the overvoltage protection circuit is
tripped and not cleared or a 0 if not tripped.
VOLTage:PROTection:CLEar
This command causes the overvoltage protection circuit to be
cleared. After this command, the output voltage is restored
to the state it was in before the protection feature occurred
and the OVP trip level remains unchanged to the value
presently programmed. Before sending this command, lower
the output voltage below the OVP trip point, or raise the
OVP trip level above the output setting.
