TRIG:SOUR

This command selects the trigger source. Since the power supply has no other trigger source than the GPIB bus, this command need not be used. It is included in the command set to provide programming compatibility with other instruments (such as the Agilent Electronic Load family) that may have more than one trigger source.

Voltage Subsystem

This subsystem programs the output voltage of the power supply.

VOLT

VOLT:TRIG

These commands set the immediate voltage level or the pending triggered voltage level of the power supply. The immediate level is the voltage programmed for the output terminals. The pending triggered level is a stored voltage value that is transferred to the output terminals when a trigger occurs. A pending triggered level is unaffected by subsequent VOLT commands and remains in effect until the trigger subsystem receives a trigger or an ABORt command is given. If there is no pending VOLT:TRIG level, then the query form returns the VOLT level. In order for VOLT:TRIG to be executed, the trigger subsystem must be initiated (see INITiate).

Returned Parameters

<NR3> VOLT? and VOLT:TRIG? return presently programmed

 

immediate and triggered levels. If not triggered level is programmed,

 

both returned values are the same.

 

VOLT? MAX and VOLT? MIN return the maximum and

 

minimum programmable immediate voltage levels.

 

VOLT:TRIG? MAX and VOLT:TRIG? MIN return the

 

maximum and minimum programmable triggered voltage levels.
