Depending on the value you specify for the Output Function property, you also must set the corresponding level properties or Output Resistance in addition to enabling the output to generate the desired level. For more information about configuring the output level, refer to the Output Function property.

This property has no effect on the output disconnect relay. To toggle the relay, use the Output Connected property.

Note If channels are in the Committed or Uncommitted states, enabling the output does not take effect until you call the niDCPower Initiate With Channels VI. Refer to the Programming States topic in the NI DC Power Supplies and SMUs Help for more information about NI-DCPower programming states.
Note NI-DCPower uses the terms "source" and "output". However, while sinking with electronic loads and SMUs these correspond to "sinking" and "input", respectively.

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