Instruction manual

At power on reset or *RST command, voltage and current trigger values are the

programmed values (values displayed in limit mode) until you explicitly

program them with the desired values.

So before programming voltage and current values,

:VOLTage[:LEVel][:IMMediate]:TRIGgered[:AMPLitude]?and

:CURRent[:LEVel][:IMMediate]:TRIGgered[:AMPLitude]?

commands return the programmed values for voltage and current.

Trigger programmed values are available until a new programming command

for a certain parameter, no matter how many times you use the trigger

subsystem.

If voltage and current trigger values are programmed, they do not change when

you change the output voltage and current values.

3. Program the trigger delay value.

Set the time delay between the trigger signal recognition and the changes the

power supply must execute according to the settings of the trigger subsystem.

This value is not considered if IMMEDIATE trigger source is selected.

The programmed value is available until a new programming command for

delay parameter, no matter how many times you use the trigger subsystem.

At power on reset or *RST command the trigger delay value is 0.

Important note!

These steps may be executed in any order you want, but before initiating the

trigger subsystem.

4. Initiate the trigger subsytem.

Trigger subsystem is initiated using INITiate[:IMMediate] command.

If IMM trigger source is selected, voltage and current trigger values become the

output values immediately.

If BUS trigger source is selected, voltage and trigger values become the output

values after a delay period from the moment the power supply received the

triger signal (*TRG command). It is important to initiate the trigger subsystem

before sending the trigger signal. Otherwise, Trigger ignored error (err -211) is

generated.
