• Actual Expected Load impedance setting:
Example
To program the low level current of the output signal:
:HOLD CURR
:CURR:LOW 50 MA
Command
:CURR[1]:LIM

Parameter
Numeric
Parameter suffix
A with engineering prefixes.
*RST value
+10.0 mA
Description Use this command to set/read the high level current limit. If you switch
on current limiting, the high level current cannot be set above the
programmed limit.
The current is not limited by the OUTPUT hardware, this is a software
limit.
Example To set the high level current limit for the output signal:
:HOLD CURR
:CURR:LIM 50 MA
:CURR:LIM:STAT ON

:OUTPUT:IMPedance:EXTernal
Enable CURRENT subsystem
Set OUTPUT low level to 50 mA
Enable CURRENT subsystem
Set OUTPUT high level current limit to 50 mA
Switch on OUTPUT limits
