Common Actions for All Transients

Programming a Step Transient
Programming a List Transient
Programming an Arbitrary Waveform

Introduction

An output transient is defined as a triggered action that causes a change in output voltage, power. or
current. The three available transient types are: step, list, and arbitrary waveforms.
Step - a one-time event that steps the voltage, power. or current up or down in response to a trigger.
List - describes a precisely timed, complex sequence of output steps or changes.
Arbitrary Waveform - allows the output to generate complex user-defined voltage, power, or current
waveforms of up to 65,535 data points.
