Note: If range is set to Auto and the sweep profile goes over or below 150 V, there will be
a 50 ms delay during that instance in which the instrument will output 0 V. This
delay is required for the instrument to switch ranges.
Below are some examples of the type of sweep that can be setup and output from the power
supply.
