Explanation

 When the overcurrent protection function of the specified channel is enabled

(

[:SOURce[<n>]]:CURRent:PROTection:STATe

), the output turns off

automatically when the output current exceeds the overcurrent protection

value currently set. You can send the

[:SOURce[<n>]]:CURRent:PROTection:TRIPped?

command to query whether

overcurrent protection occurred on the specified channel currently.

 When [:SOURce[<n>]] or [<n>] is omitted, the system sets the

corresponding parameter of the channel currently selected.

 You can also send the

:OUTPut:OCP:VALue

command to set the OCP value of

the specified channel.

Return Format

The query returns the overcurrent protection value of the specified channel, for

example, 5.0000.

Example

:CURR:PROT 5 /*Set the OCP value of the current channel to 5A*/
:CURR:PROT? /*Query the OCP value of the current channel and the query

returns 5.0000*/
