Command Reference
CN
This command enables the specified channels by setting the output switches to ON.
Then the power consumption is 0 W.
WARNING SETTING THE OUTPUT SWITCH TO "ON" ENABLES THE CHANNEL
TO FORCE DANGEROUS VOLTAGES.
WHEN THE CHANNEL IS NOT IN USE, SET THE OUTPUT SWITCH TO
"OFF" WHENEVER POSSIBLE.
Execution
Conditions
No channel may be in the HIGH VOLTAGE state (forcing more than ±42 V, or
voltage compliance set to more than ±42 V).
Syntax
CN [ chnum [, chnum ...[, chnum ]...]]
A maximum of eight channels can be set.
Parameters chnum : Channel number. The value must be slot number where the module has
been installed. Integer expression. 1 to 8 (1 and 5 are not available for
HPSMU). See
