Command Reference
INTLKVTH
If you do not specify chnum, all SMU, all SPGU, and CMU will be set to 0 V in this 
order. Then, SMU will be set to 0 V in the order from higher to lower output range 
and SPGU will be set to 0 V in the order from higher to lower setup voltage.
Remarks  The IN command sets the specified module to the following conditions:
 After this command, there is no additional power consumption for the idle state.
Example 
Statements 
OUTPUT @B1500;"IN"
OUTPUT @B1500;"IN 1,2,3,5,6"
INTLKVTH
The INTLKVTH command sets the allowable voltage for the interlock open 
condition. The B1500 output voltage and compliance voltage cannot exceed the 
setting value when the interlock circuit is opening. This setting is stored in the 
non-volatile memory. So the setting is not changed until the next INTLKVTH 
command is sent.
Syntax  INTLKVTH voltage
Parameters  voltage :  Allowable voltage for the interlock open condition. 0 or 42. Numeric 
expression.
0: Maximum 0 V
42: Maximum ±42 V (factory-shipped non-volatile setting)
Example 
Statements 
OUTPUT @B1500;"INTLKVTH 0"
INTLKVTH?
The INTLKVTH? query command returns the present setting of the allowable 
voltage for the interlock open condition.
