5 Programming Examples234 Keysight Models 6811C, 6812C, and 6813C Programming GuideDC outputThe Keysight 6811C, 6812C, and 6813C single-phase models have DC outputcapability which lets you independently control the DC and AC components of theoutput voltage. At *RST, these models default to the AC output mode. When DCoffset is desired, this mode must be changed using the OUTPut:COUPlingcommand.To enable the DC output, use:OUTPut:COUPling DCTo set the DC output voltage to 5 volts, use:VOLTage:OFFSet 5When the commandOUTPut:COUPling ACis sent, the ac source regulates the DC output voltage to 0, regardless of anyprogrammed voltage offset.NOTE Because the voltage offset commands are coupled with the voltage commands,the DC output voltage will affect the maximum output voltage and vice-versa.When the DC output is non-zero, the maximum AC voltage that can beprogrammed is reduced to a value that limits the total AC+DC peak amplitude to425 V. Similarly, when the AC output is non-zero the maximum DC offset thatcan be programmed is subject to the same limitation. Refer to “Coupledcommands” on page 235 for more information.
