Programming the Output
Select an Output Channel
Front Panel: SCPI Command:
Press the Channel key to select an
output channel. Enter the selected channel(s) in the
command’s parameter list.
(@1,2)
Set the Output Voltage
Front Panel: SCPI Command:
Press the Voltage key.
Enter a value and press Select. To set output 1 to 5 V:
VOLT 5,(@1)
To set all outputs to 10 V:
VOLT 10,(@1:4)
For models with multiple ranges, you can select a lower range if you
need better output resolution.
Front Panel: SCPI Command:
Press the Voltage key.
Select Low range and press Select. To select the lower range, program a
value that falls within the range:
VOLT:RANG 5,(@1)
Set the Voltage Slew Rate
NOTE
The ability to program the voltage slew rate is only available on Agilent N6700
MPS mainframes with firmware revision B.00.00 and up.
Front Panel: SCPI Command:
Select Output\Slew
Enter a slew rate in the Voltage
Slew Rate field. Enter the value in
volts/second. Check MAX to
program the fastest slew rate.
To set the slew rate to 5 V/s
VOLT:SLEW 5,(@1)
To set the fastest slew rate:
VOLT:SLEW MAX,(@1)
When MAXimum or INFinity is selected, the slew rate will be limited
by the analog performance of the output circuit. Also, the slowest or
MINimum slew rate is a function of the full-scale voltage range. Refer
to Chapter 6 under “VOLTage:SLEW” for more information.
Set the Output Current
Front Panel: SCPI Command:
Press the Current key.
Enter a value and press Select.
To set output 1 to 1 A:
CURR 1,(@1)
To set all outputs to 2 A:
CURR 2,(@1:4)
