AUTO

:SOURce[1]:CLEar:AUTO <b>
Parameters
<b> = 1 or ON
Query
:AUTO?
Description
This command is used to control auto output-off for the source. With
auto output-off enabled, an :INITiate (or :READ? or MEASure?) will
start source-measure operation. The output will turn on at the beginning
of each SDM (source-delay-measure) cycle and turn off after each mea-
surement is completed.
With auto output-off disabled, the source output must be on before an
:INITiate or :READ? can be used to start source-measure operation. The
:MEASure? command will automatically turn on the source output.
Once operation is started, the source output will stay on even after the
instrument returns to the idle state. Auto output-off disabled is the *RST
and :SYSTem:PRESet default.
WARNING With auto output-off disabled, the source output will remain on after
all programmed source-measure operations are completed. Beware of
hazardous voltage that may be present on the output terminals.
NOTE For the Model 2430 Pulse Mode, auto output-off is always enabled. This com-
mand is ignored.
