How do I Update the Voltage and Current Range on the WT1000/WT2000 Series Instrument Using IEEE488.2 Commands?
Solution:
To change the voltage range on element 1 to 30 V, send the "CONFIGURE:VOLTAGE:RANGE:ELEMENT1 30V" command to the measuring instrument.
To change the current range on element 1 to the 1 A range, send the "CONFIGURE:CURRENT:RANGE:ELEMENT1 1A" command to the measuring instrument.
After entering settings, confirm the settings by sending the following commands:
- To query the voltage on element 1: "CONFIGURE:VOLTAGE:RANGE:ELEMENT1?"
- To query the current on element 1: "CONFIGURE:CURRENT:RANGE:ELEMENT1?"
To set/query the ranges on all elements at once, use the following commands:
- Voltage global setting
"CONFIGURE:VOLTAGE:RANGE 30V" - Voltage global query
"CONFIGURE:VOLTAGE:RANGE?" - Current global setting
"CONFIGURE:CURRENT:RANGE 1A" - Current global query
"CONFIGURE:CURRENT:RANGE?"
For information on the voltage and current values that can be set using these commands, please refer to:
