PWR-01 Interface Manual
TRIG:TRAN:SOUR
Sets the condition (trigger source) that determines when the TRANsient trigger
subsystem actually changing the setting after the PWR-01 receives the INIT:TRAN
command.
Command
TRIGger:TRANsient:SOURce <character>
TRIGger:TRANsient:SOURce?
Parameter
Value:
IMMediate The setting is changed immediately (default).
BUS
The setting is changed when a software trigger is received
(use the *TRG, TRIG:TRAN, or IEEE488.1 get (Group Exe-
cute Trigger) command to change the setting; default).
TRIGIN
The setting is changed when a hardware trigger is received.
Settings are reset to default when the *RST command is sent.
(Example)
TRIG:TRAN:SOUR BUS
Response
Returns the trigger source of the TRANsient trigger subsystem in character format
in response to TRIG:TRAN:SOUR?.

Settings and Measurement
■
Voltage and current
The output voltage and output current are controlled by the VOLTage and CURRent
commands. The output ON/OFF state is controlled by the OUTPut command.
VOLTage 80
'Set the voltage to 80 V
CURRent 5
'Set the current to 5 A
OUTPut ON
'Turn the output on
To set the current to the maximum value, set the value of the CURRent command
to MAXimum.
The setting can be set to a value in the range from 0 to 105 % of the rated output
current.
VOLTage 80
'Set the voltage to 80 V
CURRent MAXimum
'Set the current to the maximum value
To set the voltage to the maximum value, set the value of the VOLTage command
to MAXimum.
The setting can be set to a value in the range from the value of the VOLTage:LIM-
it:LOW setting to 105 % of the rated output voltage.
CURRent 5
Set the current to 5 A
VOLTage MAXimum
'Set the voltage to the maximum value
You can confirm the maximum allowed value that can be specified in the VOLTage
and CURRent commands by specifying the MAXimum parameter in the VOLTage?
and CURRent? queries, respectively.
VOLTage? MAXimum
<Read the response>
CURRent? MAXimum
<Read the response>
The values that the queries above return may vary depending on the VOLT-
age:PROTection (OVP) and CURRent:PROTection (OCP) settings.

Setting the protection functions
The PWR-01 provides overvoltage protection (OVP) and overcurrent protection
(OCP) functions that can be configured. The VOLTage:PROTection and CUR-
Rent:PROTection commands are used to set the OVP and OCP, respectively.
VOLTage:PROTection 50
'Set the OVP to 50 V
CURRent:PROTection 4.5
'Set the OCP to 4.5 A
