Description
If a manual source range is presently selected, then the specified amplitude
cannot exceed that range. For example, if the V-Source is on the 2V range
(auto range disabled), you will not be able to set the V-Source amplitude to
3V. In auto range, the amplitude can be set to any level that is within the
capabilities of the source.
The MINimum and MAXimum parameters are only valid if the highest
source range is presently selected. Sending the MINimum or MAXimum
parameters on a lower source range will generate error -221 (Setting
Conflict).

This command performs the same as the [:IMMediate][:AMPLitude] com-
mand except that the amplitude is not updated immediately.
With this command, the amplitude is updated when the SourceMeter is
triggered to perform a source-measure operation. For example, if the
instrument is waiting in the trigger layer for an external trigger, the
amplitude of the source will not update until that external trigger is received
by the SourceMeter. See Section 10, Trigger model for details on trigger
model operation.
The MINimum and MAXimum parameters are only valid if the highest
source range is presently selected. Sending the MINimum or MAXimum
parameters on a lower source range will generate error -221 (Setting
Conflict).
