IWV
Constant Current Mode After Compliance Voltage Reached
Set Constant Current mode and current value after compliance voltage has been reached.
Description
This command places the load into Constant Current mode at the
specified level. This command is similar to the CI command except
that the load does not draw current until triggered, that is when the
voltage at the load exceeds the XBL's compliance voltage
(usually .5 VDC). This greatly reduces the overshoot current
usually experienced when turning on a power supply into a preset
constant current or “hot” load. This command functions in “single
shot” mode in that the command must be repeated once the load has
been triggered by the supply voltage.
Command Syntax
IWV <NR2>
Example
IWV 10.5
This will place the load in Constant Current at 10.5 Amps once the
compliance voltage is reached.
