V
OLTAGE RAMPING TO A LOWER VOLTAGE
Requires an appropriate resistive load. The discharge rate of the large capacitance in the
output section of the power supply, plus other user capacitance, significantly lengthens
the ramp time.
10.5.3.3
C
URRENT RAMPING
Requires an appropriate resistive load.
MEASURE SCPI Command Subsystem

MEASURE SCPI Command Reference
The letter “C” in the “SCPI” column means that the command syntax is SCPI compliant;
an “N” in the “SCPI” column means that the command syntax is not part of the SCPI
definition and The Data format <n> represents channel number.
Command Description SCPI
MEASure<n>:CURRent?
Returns the floating point value of the DC output
current in amps.
C
MEASure<n>:CURRent
:AVErage
<NR1>
Enter a value of 3 to 9 to set the number of readings to
average together when returning the current value from
the
MEAS<n>:CURR?
command to reduce noise in the
readback readings. The value of 3 (factory default)
provides the fastest response time in the readings, but
less rejection of noise.
N
MEASure<n>:CURRent
:AVErage
?
Returns the number 3 to 9 to indicate the number of
readings to average together when taking a current
reading.
N
MEASure<n>:CURRent
:PROGram
?
Returns the programmed output current from external
Analog current programming feature.
