Output Commands

Output commands consist of instrument, output and source commands. Instrument commands control the output coupling on Agilent 66309B/D units. Output commands control the output and digital port functions.

Source commands program the actual voltage, current, and digital port output.

INSTrument:COUPle:OUTPut:STATe

Agilent 66309B/D units with firmware revision A.02.04 and up only

Couples Output 1 and Output 2. When outputs 1 and 2 are coupled, ALL OUTPut commands will turn both outputs ON or OFF together. When not coupled, use OUTPut1 or OUTPut2 to turn the specified output ON or OFF individually.

To have the unit turn on with the outputs uncoupled, set the output coupling to NONE, save this state in location 0 and set the power-on state to RCL 0. Note that when an output state is recalled, the outputs are set to the state in which they were in when the state was saved, regardless of the output coupling setting.

<CRD>

OUTPut[1 2]

This command enables or disables the dc source output. If outputs 1 and 2 are coupled, it affects both the main output and output 2 on Agilent 66309B/D units. If the outputs are not coupled and no output channel is specified, the command applies to the main output. The state of a disabled output is a condition of zero output voltage and a model-dependent minimum source current (see *RST).

OUTPut[1 2]:RELay:MODE

Agilent 66309B/D units with Option 521 only

Specifies one of the relay modes (DD, DH, HD, or HH). The output must be turned off before any programmed mode settings take effect. Relay settings cannot be coupled; they must be set separately for each output. Relay modes are stored in non-volatile memory and will be restored when the unit is turned on. When shipped from the factory, the relay mode for both output 1 and output 2 is set to HH.

1When the Output ON relay mode is set to Hot, the dc source does not check for open sense leads when the output is turned on or enabled. With Hot output switching, the output is programmed before the sense relays are closed.
