·
The <channel> parameter must specify a single channel.
·
If the channel specified is not on a digital SCP, an error will be generated.
·
Returned Value: returns PASS or ACT. The type is string.
·
*RST Condition: returns ACT
OUTPut:VOLTage:AMPLitude
OUTPut:VOLTage:AMPLitude <amplitude>,(@<ch_list>) sets the excitation
voltage on programmable Strain Bridge Completion SCPs pointed to by <ch_list>
(the VT1511A for example). This command is not
used to set output voltage on
SCPs like the VT1531A Voltage Output SCP.
