displayed on the screen, prompting you that overcurrent protection occurs and the channel output is
automatically disabled.
For the setting command, MINimum indicates setting the channel overcurrent protection to a minimum
value; MAXimum indicates setting the channel overcurrent protection to a maximum value.
For the query command, MINimum indicates querying the minimum settable value of the channel
overcurrent protection; MAXimum indicates querying the maximum settable value of the channel
overcurrent protection.
You can also send the
[:SOURce[<n>]]:CURRent:PROTection[:LEVel] command to set the channel
overcurrent protection value.
