Specifies whether the input of the instrument simulates a short circuit.

Syntax

Namespace: NationalInstruments.ModularInstruments.NIDCPower

public bool OutputShorted { get; set; }

Remarks

  • When this property is set to true, the electronic load will simulate a short circuit across the channel/input terminals. The electronic load uses the maximum rated current and range to simulate the short circuit. This property will only take effect when both Enabled and Connected are true.

  • When this property is set to false, the instrument will resume normal operation based on its existing settings on the specified channel(s).

Note

This property is not supported by all instruments. Refer to the Supported Properties by Device topic in the NI DC Power Supplies and SMUs Help for information about supported instruments.
