Agilent Technologies 5951-2826, 5951-2827 manual CC Mode Example, CV Mode Example, CR Mode Example

CC Mode Example

This example sets the current level to 0.75 amps and then reads back the actual current value.

10 OUTPUT 705;"INPUT OFF"

20 OUTPUT 705;"MODE:CURR"

30 OUTPUT 705;"CURR:RANG 1"

40 OUTPUT 705;"CURR 0.75"

50 OUTPUT 705;"INPUT ON"

60 OUTPUT 705;"MEAS:CURR?"

70 ENTER 705;A

80 DISP A

90 END

Line 10: Turns off Electronic Load input.

Line 20: Selects the CC mode.

Line 30: Selects the low current range.

Line 40: Sets the current level to 0.75 amps.

Line 50: Turns on Electronic Load input.

Line 60: Measures the actual input current and stores it in a buffer inside the Electronic Load.

Line 70: Reads the input current value into variable A in the computer.

Line 80: Displays the measured current value on the computer’s display.

CV Mode Example

This example presets the voltage level to 10 volts, and selects the external trigger source.

10 OUTPUT 705; "INPUT OFF"

20OUTPUT 705;"MODE: VOLT"

30OUTPUT 705;"VOLT:TRIG 10"

40OUTPUT 705;"TRIG:SOUR EXT"

50OUTPUT 705;"INPUT ON"

60END

Line 10: Turns off Electronic Load input.

Line 20: Selects the CV mode.

Line 30: Presets the voltage level to 10 volts.

Line 40: Selects the external input as the trigger source.

Line 50: Turns on Electronic Load input.

In this example, when the Electronic Load receives the external trigger signal, the input voltage level will be set to 10 volts.

CR Mode Example

This example sets the current protection limit to 2 amps, programs the resistance level to 100 ohms, and reads back the computed power. See Appendix A for considerations regarding high-resistance applications.

10 OUTPUT 705;"INPUT OFF"

20 OUTPUT 705; "MODE:RES"

30 OUTPUT 705;"CURR:PROT:LEV 2;DEL 5"

40 OUTPUT 705;"CURR:PROT:STAT ON"

50 OUTPUT 705;"RES:RANG 25"

60 OUTPUT 705;"RES 100"

70 Remote Operation
