Source Function (See section 5.1 for the procedure)
The source function can be set to either voltage (V or mV) or current (mA).
Voltage (V): Operates as a constant voltage source. The current limiter is enabled.
Voltage (mV): Operates as a voltage source that uses a voltage divider.
Current (A): Operates as a constant current source. The voltage limiter is enabled.
Source Action
Source action refers to the setting of the source level and the way that the source level
changes to the new value. In source actions, various control signals change as shown
below.
During DC Source Operation (When a program is not running)
The actual source level will change at the time the setting change is instructed from a
panel operation or communication command. The source change completion (Ready)
signal, which is a low-level pulse signal with a width of 10
μ
s, is generated 10 ms after
the source level changes. Additionally, the trigger busy (TrigBusy) signal, which indicates
the program execution status, remains at high level and does not change.
