Set the Output Voltage
Front Panel: SCPI Command:
Press the Voltage key.
Enter a value and press Select.
To set output 1 to 5 V:
VOLT 5,(@1)
To set all outputs to 10 V:
VOLT 10,(@1:4)
For models with multiple ranges, you can select a lower range if you
need better output resolution.
Front Panel: SCPI Command:
Press the Voltage key.
Select a lower range and press
Select.
To select the lower range, program a
value that falls within the range:
VOLT:RANG 5,(@1)
For Agilent Models N678xA SMU operating in current priority mode,
you can specify a Voltage limit., which limits the output voltage at the
specified value. In current priority mode, the output current remains
at its programmed setting as long as the output voltage is within the
positive or negative limit. Check Tracking to let the negative voltage
limit track the positive voltage limit setting.
Front Panel:
SCPI Command:
Press the Voltage key.
Specify a + Voltage limit and or a
− Voltage limit and press Select.
Check the Tracking box if you want
the − limit to track the + limit.
To select the voltage limit:
VOLT:LIM 5,(@1)
To select the negative voltage limit:
VOLT:LIM:NEG 3,(@1)
To enable voltage limit tracking:
VOLT:LIM:COUP ON,(@1)
