Front Panel:
Press the Channel key to select an
output channel.
Front Panel:
Press the Voltage key.
Enter a value and press Select.
For models with multiple ranges, you can select a lower range if you
need better output resolution.
Front Panel:
Press the Voltage key.
Select Low range and press Select.
The ability to program the voltage slew rate is only available on Agilent N6700
MPS mainframes with firmware revision B.00.00 and up.
Front Panel:
Select Output\Slew
Enter a slew rate in the Voltage
Slew Rate field. Enter the value in
volts/second. Check MAX to
program the fastest slew rate.
When MAXimum or INFinity is selected, the slew rate will be limited
by the analog performance of the output circuit. Also, the slowest or
MINimum slew rate is a function of the full-scale voltage range. Refer
to Chapter 6 under "VOLTage:SLEW" for more information.
Front Panel:
Press the Current key.
Enter a value and press Select.
SCPI Command:
