Trigger Example

9.14.3
Program a unit with no load at the output to change its output voltage and current to 5
VDC @ 1A at the same time.
// Use SYST:ERR? after each command to verify no programming errors.
// turn on the unit.

Ramp I Example

9.14.4
Program a unit with the output shorted to ramp its output current from 5A to 25A in 30
seconds.
// Use SYST:ERR? after each command to verify no programming errors.
// turn on with no load at the output.
*CLS

SOUR:VOLT 33.0
SOUR:CURR 5.0
SOUR:CURR:RAMP 25.0 30.0

// clear the unit to its power-on default settings.
// reset the unit.
// program output current to 1.0 A upon trigger.
// confirm output current set to 1.0 A upon trigger.
// program output voltage to 5.0 VDC upon trigger
// confirm output current set to 5.0 VDC upon trigger.
// measure the actual output current (response: 0.0).
// measure the actual output voltage (response: 0.0).
// trigger the unit to implement curr and volt programming.
// measure the actual output current (response: ~ 0. 0 with no load
on output).
// measure the actual output voltage (response: ~ 5.0).
// turn off trigger mode.
// clear the unit to its power-on default settings.
// reset the unit.
// short the output.
// program output voltage to 33.0 VDC.
// program output current to 5.0 A.
// program current to ramp from the present
// value (5.0 A) to 25.0 A in 30 seconds.
