Minus sigh Syntax | Xantrex Technology XMP 2600 specs

Commands and Queries Reference			Alphabetical reference
TRIGER	send a trigger to the Power Module.
	Syntax	TRIGER <ch>
	Parameters	the number of the Power Module to send the trigger
		to.
	Category	Trigger and Sync	Type: Overlapped
VALL?	return load voltage measurements of all installed Power Modules. The
	response is a series of values - one for each installed Power Module,
	separated with “,”, starting with the lower numbered module. If auto-
	polarity is enabled, negative output values will be preceded with a
	minus sigh.
	Syntax	VALL?
	Parameters	none
	Category	Read-back	Type: Sequential
VHIGH	program the upper window warning level for the load voltage of the
	Power Module.
	Syntax	VHIGH <ch>,<value>
	Parameters	the number of the Power Module to be programmed.
		the value to be set as the upper window warning
		level for the load voltage. The upper limit of the
		programmed value is VMAX. The lower limit of the
		programmed value is VSET.
	Category	Warnings	Type: Sequential
VHIGH?	return the current settings for the upper window warning level of the
	load voltage of the Power Module. The response is a <value>.
	Syntax	VHIGH? <ch>
	Parameters	the number of the channel to be queried.
	Category	warnings	Type: Sequential
VLIM	program an	upper limit on subsequent programming of voltage
	settings for the Power Module.
	Syntax	VLIM <ch>,<value>
	Parameters	the number of the Power Module to be programmed.
		the value to become the new upper limit for VSET
		programming. The upper value of the programmed
		value is VMAX.
	Category	Settings	Type: Sequential
