OUTP:CURR:STAT does not affect a channel’s amplitude setting. A channel that
has been disabled, when re-enabled sources the same current set by the previous
OUTP:CURR:AMPL command.
·
OUTP:CURR:STAT is most commonly used to turn off excitation current to
four-wire resistance (and resistance temperature device) circuits during execution
of CAL:TARE for those channels.
