Operating Manual for Multichannel Functionality (GPIB-M)

Example:

Set a slew rate of 100V/10s for a 100V-60A power supply. This slew rate is 1V/0.1s,
which is within the acceptable range.

Send the commands:

“:VOLT:SLEW:STEP 1”

, and

“:VOLT:SLEW:INT 100ms”

Using smaller steps will result in a smoother curve.
