If the unit has shut down, resume operation by sending the "OUTP ON" command.

[:]OUTPut[<channel>]:PROTection:CLEar command will still be parsed and passed to other instruments on the CANbus.
WARNING- Fire Hazard
If an
Shutdown vs Protection Alarm
If a protection setpoint is exceeded, the system does the following:
1.If :STATe has been set to ON, the unit shuts down. (OVP does not have a settable :STATe. It is always ON.)
2.If :STATe has been set to OFF, the unit does not shut down but creates an alarm by setting the appropriate bit in the questionable status register, which can be queried remotely. See “Status Registers” on page 69 for more information.
