:LEVel? MINimum Query minimum allowable compliance
:LEVel? MAXimum Query maximum allowable compliance
Description This command is used to set compliance limits. A current compliance limit
is set for the V-Source, and a voltage compliance limit is set for the I-
Source. The SourceMeter cannot source levels that exceed these specied
limits.
The :SENSe:CURRent:PROTection[:LIMit] command is used to set the
current compliance for the V-Source and the
:SENSe:VOLTage:PROTection[:LIMit] command is used to set the voltage
compliance for the I-Source.
NOTE You cannot set compliance less than 0.1% of the present measurement range.
:TRIPped?
[:SENSe[1]]:CURRent[:DC]:PROTection:TRIPped? Query current compliance state
[:SENSe[1]]:VOLTage[:DC]:PROTection:TRIPped? Query voltage compliance state
Description This command is used to determine if the source is in compliance. If a 1 is
returned, then the source is in compliance. A 0 indicates that the source is
not in compliance.
The :CURRent:PROTection:TRIPped? command is used to check the com-
pliance state of the V-Source, and the :VOLTage: PROTection:TRIPped?
command is used to check the compliance state of the I-Source.
