Description

Specifies the pulse bias current limit, in amps, that the output cannot exceed when generating the desired pulse bias voltage on the specified channel(s) during the off phase of a pulse.

The limit is specified as a positive value, but symmetric positive and negative limits are enforced simultaneously.

This attribute is applicable only if the NIDCPOWER_ATTR_OUTPUT_FUNCTION attribute is set to NIDCPOWER_VAL_PULSE_VOLTAGE and the NIDCPOWER_ATTR_COMPLIANCE_LIMIT_SYMMETRY attribute is set to NIDCPOWER_VAL_SYMMETRIC.

Note The channel must be enabled for the specified current limit to take effect. Refer to the NIDCPOWER_ATTR_OUTPUT_ENABLED attribute for more information about enabling the output channel.
Note Note  This attribute is not supported by all devices. Refer to Supported Attributes by Device for information about supported devices.

Valid Values: The valid values for this attribute are defined by the values you specify for the NIDCPOWER_ATTR_PULSE_CURRENT_LIMIT_RANGE property.
