Setting the compliance limit

Front panel compliance limit
Set the compliance limit from the front panel as follows:
1.
Select the desired source and measure functions using the MEAS and SOURCE
keys.
2.
Press the EDIT key until the cursor flashes in the compliance (Compl:) display
field.
3.
Select the desired compliance range using the RANGE
4.
To increment or decrement the compliance value, use the EDIT
place the cursor over the digit to be changed, then press the SOURCE
to increment or decrement the compliance value.
5.
To change the compliance value directly, simply enter the value using the numeric
keys while the cursor is flashing in the compliance display field.
Compliance range synchronization
Enabling this feature will force the measurement range to follow the compliance range set-
ting when autoranging is off. When the compliance value is set, the measurement range
will be on the same range as the compliance setting.
You can enable range synchronization by pressing CONFIG then MEAS V (for voltage) or
MEAS I (for current). Select CMPL-RANGE-SYNC, then ON to enable, or OFF to dis-
able range synchronization.
Remote compliance limit

Table 3-3

summarizes basic commands to program the compliance limit. See
"Set compliance
parameters," for more details on these commands. To program the com-
pliance, simply send the command using the desired parameter. For example, the follow-
ing command sets the current compliance to 50mA:
:SENS:CURR:PROT 50E-3
Similarly, the following command sets the voltage compliance to 4V:
:SENS:VOLT:PROT 4
