LOAD

 

Load On/Off Control 

Description 

This command is used to instruct to load to close its load connect 

relay and apply loading, or to open its connect relay removing the 

load from the device under test. 

Command Syntax 

LOAD ON 

LOAD OFF 

Example 

LOAD ON 

This will close the load connect relay and start loading the device 

under test at the programmed settings. 

 

LOAD OFF 

This will open the load connect relay and stop loading.
