FIGURE B-7. CURRent:TRIGgered COMMAND
FIGURE B-8. CURRent:TRIGgered QUERY
Syntax
: Short Form: CURR:TRIG <value>
Long Form: [SOURce]:CURRent:TRIGgered <value>
Function
: Programs current value to be implemented by *TRG command. Actual output current will depend on
load conditions.
Description
: This command can be used to reset many power supplies to preselected parameters by issuing a sin-
gle *TRG command.
Example
: VOLT 21; CURR 1.1 Power supply commanded to go to 21V, 1.1A
CURR:TRIG 2.3 Power supply current programmed to 2.3A upon receipt of *TRG
CURR? Controller reads 1.1, indicating programmed current value = 1.1A
*TRG Power supply commanded to current value established by CURR:TRIG
command (2.3) and voltage value established by VOLT:TRIG
CURR? Controller reads 2.3, indicating programmed current value = 2.3A
CURR:TRIG
Syntax
: Short Form: CURR:TRIG?
Long Form: [SOURce]:CURRent:TRIGgered?
Function
: Returns value to controller which represents current value to be programmed by *TRG command.
Description
: This command returns the current value established by CURR:TRIG command.
Example
: VOLT 21; CURR 1.1 Power supply commanded to go to 21V, 1.1A
CURR:TRIG 2.3 Power supply current programmed to 2.3 upon receipt of *TRG
CURR? Controller reads 1.1, indicating programmed current value = 1.1A
CURR:TRIG? Controller reads 2.3 (current value established by CURR:TRIG
command
