_____________________________________________________________________________________________
:LEVel:CCURRent
Sets the constant current value.
:LEVel:CCURRent?
Queries the constant current value.
Syntax
:LEVel:CCURRent
<data>
<data>
Numerical data in NR3 format
3532-50: 0.01E-03 and 99.99E-03 (frequency 42 Hz to 1 MHz)
0.01E-03 and 20.00E-03 (frequency 1.001 MHz to 5 MHz)
3522-50: 0.01E-03 and 99.99E-03
Function
Sets the value of the constant current.
The numerical value can be in NRf format, but rounding is performed for figures
beyond the last valid decimal place.
When the test signal frequency is set to a value greater than 1MHz, the range
which can be set is from 10
µ
A to 20 mA.
Example
Transmission
:LEVel:CCURRent 10.00E-03
The constant current value is set to 10 mA.
Error
If <data> is other than numerical value described above, an execution error
occurs.
Executing this command while the open or short circuit compensation is
performed generates an execution error.
Syntax
:LEVel:CCURRent?
Function
Returns the value of the constant current as a numerical value in NR3 format.
Example
Response
If headers are on
:LEVEL:CCURRENT 10.00E-
0
3
If headers are off
10.00E-03
The constant current value has been set to 10 mA.
Error
If the response message is longer than 300 bytes, a query error is generated.
