B.41 [SOURce:]CURRent[:LEVel]:TRIGgered[:AMPlitude] COMMAND
Syntax:
Short Form: [SOUR:]CURR[:LEV]:TRIG[:AMP] <exp_value>
Long Form: [SOURce:]CURRent[:LEVel]:TRIGgered[:AMPlitude] <exp_value>
<exp_value> = digits with decimal point and Exponent, e.g., 2.71E1 for 27.1
Description: Programs current value to be transferred to output by *TRG (trigger) commands. This command
can be used to reset many power supplies to preselected parameters by issuing a single *TRG com-
mand. Actual output current will depend on load conditions. If the value exceeds the maximum for the
model being programmed, error message -222,"Data out of range" is posted in output queue. Related
Commands: CURR, *TRG, TRIG
B.42 [SOURce:]CURRent[:LEVel]:TRIGgered[:AMPlitude]? QUERY
Syntax:
Short Form: [SOUR:]CURR[:LEV]:TRIG[:AMP]?
Long Form: [SOURce:]CURRent[:LEVel]:TRIGgered[:AMPlitude]?
Return Value: <exp_value> = digits with decimal point and Exponent, e.g., 2.71E1 for 27.1
Description: Returns the current value established by CURR:TRIG command.
B.43 [SOURce:]FUNCtion:MODE COMMAND
Syntax:
Short Form: FUNC:MODE {VOLT | CURR | EXT}
Long Form: [SOURce:]FUNCtion:MODE {VOLT | CURR | EXTernal}
Description: Establishes the operating mode of the power supply. VOLT = Constant Voltage mode (CV). CURR
= Constant Current mode (CC). EXT = External. FUNC:MODE VOLT commands power supply to Volt-
age mode, FUNC:MODE CURR commands power supply to Current mode. Commanded mode estab-
lishes parameters (voltage or current) monitored for error conditions. Actual mode depends upon load
conditions. When commanded to Voltage mode, if load conditions cause the power supply to try to
exceed the current limit, the unit will flag an error condition. When commanded to Current mode, if
load conditions cause the power supply to try to exceed the voltage limit, the unit will flag an error con-
dition.
B.44 [SOURce:]FUNCtion:MODE? QUERY
Syntax:
Short Form: FUNC:MODE?
Return value: 0 (voltage mode) or 1 (current mode)
Description: Returns the operating mode of the power supply. 0 = Constant Voltage mode (CV). 1 = Constant
Current mode (CC).
B.45 [SOURce:]FUNCtion:MODE:TRIGger COMMAND
Syntax:
Short Form: FUNC:MODE:TRIG {VOLT | CURR}
Long Form: [SOURce:]FUNCtion:MODE:TRIGger {VOLT | CURR}
Description: Establishes the operating mode of the power supply when a TRIGger command is sent. VOLT =
Constant Voltage mode (CV). CURR = Constant Current mode (CC). FUNC:MODE:TRIG VOLT com-
mands power supply to Voltage mode when a TRIGger command is sent, FUNC:MODE:TRIG CURR
commands power supply to Current mode when a TRIGger command is sent.
B.46 [SOURce:]FUNCtion:MODE:TRIGger? QUERY
Syntax:
Short Form: FUNC:MODE:TRIG?
Return value: 0 = voltage mode or 1 = current mode
Description: Returns the operating mode which the power supply will enter when a trigger command is
sent. VOLT = Constant Voltage mode (CV). CURR = Constant Current mode (CC).
B.47 [SOURce:]LIST:CLEar COMMAND
Syntax:
Short Form: LIST:CLE
Description: Clears all list entries by setting all pointers to 0. Releases control of the Output Off flag at EXT
PROTECT PORT, pins 5 and 6 (see Table 2-4), from the programmed list. Related Commands: All
LIST commands (See example, Figure B-5.)
