1.5 Analog Current Control Mode
1.5.1 Current Setpoint
When the unit is in Analog Current Control Mode, the Analog Current channel supplies the
Current Setpoint.
Scaling:
You can select 3 volt, 5 volt, or 10 volt scaling for the analog current input. This is the value
which represents the maximum model-specific current. For example, if you have the 400V
2.5A model and have selected the 10V scaling, then 10 volts applied across the Analog
Current channel will result in a 2.5 amp setpoint. For the same scaling, 5 volts applied
across the Analog Current channel will result in a 0.750 amp setpoint.
If Analog Current Control Mode is entered via the front panel, you will be asked to select
which scaling you want. You may also select scaling with the SCPI command:
SYSTem:MODe:ASCale CURRent,<3|5|10>
1.5.2 Voltage Setpoint
The Voltage Setpoint is the last voltage value set when in Local Mode, and once in Analog
Current Control Mode, cannot be changed either from the front panel or by a SCPI
command.
1.5.3 Activating/deactivating the output
You can activate or deactivate the output either from the front panel Enable switch or by the
SCPI command:
OUTPut <ON|OFF>
Activate/deactivate output
1.5.4 Remote Queries
When the output is ON, you may query the output current and voltage, as well as the output
state and voltage and current setpoints using the commands:
MEASure:VOLTage?
Measure and return output voltage (volts)
MEASure:CURRent?
Measure and return output current (amps)
OUTPut?
Query output state
