Sets the immediate or triggered current level when the output is operating in current priority mode.
The triggered level is a stored value that is transferred to the output when an output Step is
triggered. Units are in amperes. The maximum value depends on the current rating of the unit. The
minimum value is the most negative value.
Parameter Typical Return
-10.2% to 102% of rating, *RST 0
With power dissipator: up to -102% to 102% of rating <current level>
Sets the positive current limit to 2 A: CURR:LIM 2
