	deviceName As String,

	currentValues As Double()
)

Parameters

deviceName

Type: SystemString
The name, as configured in Measurement Automation Explorer (MAX), of the device to which this operation applies.

voltageChannels

Type: SystemString
The voltage channels for which to set new power up values. Each value in this array specifies a virtual channel string that is assigned the voltage at the corresponding position in the voltageValues parameter. You can set voltage power up states only for physical channels that support voltage output.

voltageValues

Type: SystemDouble
The voltages to set. Each value in this array applies to the virtual channel name at the corresponding position of the voltageChannels parameter. You can set voltage power up states only for physical channels that support voltage output.

currentChannels

Type: SystemString
The current channels for which to set new power up values. Each value in this array specifies a virtual channel string that is assigned the current at the corresponding position in the currentValues parameter. You can set current power up states only for physical channels that support current output.

currentValues

Type: SystemDouble
The currents to set. Each value in this array applies to the virtual channel name at the corresponding position of the currentChannels parameter. You can set current power up states only for physical channels that support current output.

Power up states are stored in EEPROMs that you can write to only a limited number of times. Therefore, you should use this method as infrequently as possible. This method writes to the EEPROM only if a setting you request is different from the one currently stored on the EEPROM. This method writes power up states in the sequential order of the power up states array. Therefore, any physical channels with multiple entries in that array use the highest array index.

When you call this method, you can choose to not set either voltages or currents by passing in for the voltage or current parameters, but not both.
