Measurement Function" on page 1-10.
3. Set the composite limit test. See "Setting the Composite Limit Test" on page

4. Set the individual limit tests. See "Setting Individual Limit Tests" on page 1-19.
5. Set the trigger condition. See "Setting the Source Output Trigger" on page 1-15
and "Setting the Measurement Trigger" on page 1-11.
6. Enable the channel. See "Enabling the Current/Charge Measurement" on page
1-10.
7. Execute the :INIT command to start limit test.
Note that the DC source channel applies the value set by the
:SOUR:VOLT:TRIG command when it is triggered, even if the channel is
applying the value set by the :SOUR:VOLT command.
8. Read limit test result. See "Reading Limit Test Result" on page 1-19.
