[SOURce:]FUNCtion:MODE

This comand configures the output operating mode. Note that if the output is on, changing the output mode will cause the output to cycle OFF, then ON.

VOLTage Configures the output for voltage priority operation

CURRent Configures the output for current priority operation

Command Syntax	[SOURce:]FUNCtion:MODE <mode>,(@<channel list>)
Parameters	VOLTage CURRent
*RST Value	VOLT
Examples	FUNC:MODE VOLT,(@1)
Query Syntax	[SOURce:]FUNC:MODE? (@<channel list>)
Returned Parameters	<CRD>

[SOURce:]VOLTage:ALC:BWIDth

This command configures the output compensation band for the voltage mode. If capacitive loads cause the output to oscillate, use this command to select a lower compenstion band. Note that if the output is on, changing the compensation will cause the output to cycle OFF, then ON. The following compensation bandwidths may be programmed: 30 kHz, 20 kHz, or 10 kHz.

Command Syntax	[SOURce:]VOLTage:ALC:BWIDth <Nrf>, (@<channel list>)
Parameters	10000 20000 30000
*RST Value	30000
Examples	VOLT:ALC:BWID 10000,(@1)
Query Syntax	[SOURce:]VOLTage:ALC:BWIDth? (@<channel list>)
Returned Parameters	<NR3>

[SOURce:]VOLTage[:IMMediate]

[SOURce:]VOLTage:TRIGgered

These commands set the immediate and the pending triggered voltage level of the dc source. The immediate level is the voltage programmed for the output terminals. The pending triggered level is a stored value that is transferred to the output terminals when a trigger occurs. To respond to a trigger, the [SOUR:]VOLT:MODE must be set to STEP, and the trigger system must be initiated.

Command Syntax	[SOURce:]VOLTage[:LEVel][:IMMediate][:AMPLitude]<NRf+>, (@<channel list>)
	[SOURce:]VOLTage[:LEVel]:TRIGgered[:AMPLitude] <Nrf+>, (@<channel list>)
Parameters	see table 6-3
Default Suffix	V (volts)
*RST Value	0
Examples	VOLT 2.5,(@1)	VOLT:TRIG 20,(@1)
Query Syntax	[SOURce:]VOLTage[:LEVel][:IMMediate][:AMPLitude]? (@<channel list>)
	[SOURce:]VOLTage[:LEVel]:TRIGgered[:AMPLitude]? (@<channel list>)
Returned Parameters	<NR3>
Related Commands	INIT VOLT:MODE
