SENSe:LEAD:STATus?
This query returns the status of the open sense detection circuit. The query must be performed with the
output disabled. Any external source such as an external capacitor must be discharged. The following
status code is returned:
Value
Description Value Description
0
Sense lead connections are normal
4
Sense lead status is unknown, possibly
1
Positive sense lead is open
caused by an external voltage
2
Negative sense lead is open
5
The output is not in the disabled state
3
Bothe sense leads are open
Query Syntax
SENSe:LEAD:STATus?
Returned Parameters
<NR3>
Examples
SENS:LEAD:STAT?
SENSe:FUNCtion
This command configures the sensing function for triggered measurements. The dc source has up to three
measurement sensors as described below. The query returns the function setting.
CURRent
Senses the current measurement at the main output (output 1)
DVM
Senses the voltage measurement at the DVM inputs (Agilent 66321D/66319D only)
VOLTage
Senses the voltage measurement at the main output (output 1)
Command Syntax
SENSe:FUNCtion <function>
Parameters
"VOLTage" | "CURRent" | "DVM"
Examples
SENS:FUNC "VOLT"
Query Syntax
SENSe:FUNCtion?
Returned Parameters
<SRD>
SENSe:PROTection:STATe
This command enables or disables the open sense lead detection. The default setting for this function is
disabled. To permanently enable open sense lead detection, program this command on, save this state in
location 0 using *SAV 0, and set the output power-on state to recall state 0 (OUTP:PON:STAT RCL 0).
Command Syntax
SENSe:PROTection:STATe <bool>
Parameters
0 | OFF | 1 | ON
*RST Value
0
Examples
SENS:PROT:STAT ON
Query Syntax
SENSe:PROTect:STATe?
Returned Parameters
<NR3>
SENSe:SWEep:OFFSet:POINts
This command defines the offset in a data sweep when an acquire trigger is used. Negative values
represent data samples taken prior to the trigger. Positive values represent the delay after the trigger
occurs but before the samples are acquired.
Command Syntax
SENSe:SWEep:OFFSet:POINts <NRf+>
Parameters
-4095 through 2,000,000,000
*RST Value
0
Examples
SENS:SWE:OFFS:POIN -2047
Query Syntax
SENSe:SWEep:OFFSet:POINts?
Returned Parameters
