Description

Specifies the maximum voltage, in volts, that the output can produce when generating the desired current on the specified channel(s).

This attribute is applicable only if the NIDCPOWER_ATTR_COMPLIANCE_LIMIT_SYMMETRY attribute is set to NIDCPOWER_VAL_ASYMMETRIC and the NIDCPOWER_ATTR_OUTPUT_FUNCTION attribute is set to NIDCPOWER_VAL_DC_CURRENT.

You must also specify NIDCPOWER_ATTR_VOLTAGE_LIMIT_LOW to complete the asymmetric range.

Note Note  The channel must be enabled and the output relay must be connected for the specified limit to take effect. Refer to the NIDCPOWER_ATTR_OUTPUT_ENABLED attribute and the NIDCPOWER_ATTR_OUTPUT_CONNECTED attribute for more information about enabling the output channel and connecting the output relay respectively.
Note Note  Refer to Supported Attributes by Device for information about supported devices.

Valid Values: [1% of NIDCPOWER_ATTR_VOLTAGE_LIMIT_RANGE, NIDCPOWER_ATTR_VOLTAGE_LIMIT_RANGE]

  • The range bounded by the limit high and limit low must include zero.
Note Note  The limit may be extended beyond the selected limit range if the NIDCPOWER_ATTR_OVERRANGING_ENABLED attribute is set to VI_TRUE.

Default Value: Refer to Supported Attributes by Device for the default value by device.
