[SOURce:]CURRent:PROTection:STATe

This command enables or disables the overcurrent protection (OCP) function on all output channels. If the dc source overcurrent protection function is enabled and the dc source goes into constant current operation, then the output is disabled and the Questionable Condition status register OC bit is set (see chapter 7 about programming the status registers). Note that the [SOURce:]CURRent command sets the current limit, which determines when the dc source goes into constant current operation. An overcurrent condition can be cleared with the OUTPut:PROTection:CLEar command after the cause of the condition is removed.

NOTE: Use OUTPut:PROTection:DELay to prevent momentary current limit conditions caused

by programmed output changes from tripping the overcurrent protection.

[SOURce:]CURRent:TRIGger

This command sets the pending triggered current level of the dc source. The pending triggered level is a stored current value that is transferred to the output terminals when a trigger occurs. In order for a trigger to occur, the trigger subsystem must be initiated (see the INITiate command in the trigger subsystem).
