High-Level Actions
DAC: 16 Chan (Individual) This action programs each channel of the 16 channel Agilent E1418 DAC
either as a voltage or current source.
DAC: 16 Channels This action programs all channels of the 16 channel Agilent E1418 DAC
either as a voltage or current source.
Table 5-4. dgn (Diagnostic) Actions
Ag3499SlotCheck Verifies that the 3499 contains the N2261, N2262, and N2264 cards in one of
the 5 slots
ArbAdjust Measures Voltage/Current (V/I) gains using the MCM and DMM on external
Arb connections to the system.
AutoAdjust Measures all Voltage/Current (V/I) gains and offsets using the MCM and
DMM.
dgnConnectString Connects the switch path referenced by the parameter 'pathstring'. This
action is helpful when the path you wish to connect may be a variable or a
symbol table entry.
dgnDisConnect Disconnects the switch path referenced by the parameter 'path'. This action
is helpful when the path you wish to disconnect may be a variable or a symbol
table entry.
EFTMuxTestDebugPorts This action tests the Series 2 debug ports by prompting the user to put a 50
ohm resistor on each port one-at-a-time.
EFTMuxTestPath12 This action test the Series 2 instrument mux relays for ABus1 and ABus2.
EFTMuxTestPath34 This action test the Series 2 instrument mux relays for ABus3 and ABus4.
fetchDeviceByName Diagnostics Action: This action returns the module handle of the module
referenced by string name.
getICA
This action returns:
0 - no ICA defined
1 - Mass Interconnect (MAC panel) ICA
2 - Test System Interface (Express connect) ICA
-1 - error condition
getModByName This action returns the module handle of the module referenced by string
name.
getModuleName This action returns the string name of a module.
isThereA33120 This action returns a value of 1 if there is a 33120 Arbitrary Waveform
Generator in the system.
isThereA34401 This action returns a value of 1 if a 34401 DMM is in the system.
isThereA53131 This action returns a value of 1 if a 53131 Counter is in the system.
PinAuxRelayTests Tests the "Aux" relays for opens and shorts on the Pin Matrix Module.
PinAuxRelayTestsAll Tests the "Aux" relays for opens and shorts on all of the Pin Matrix Modules
in the system.
PinProtBypass Closes relays to short the 200 ohm column protection resistors on the Pin
Matrix Module.
PinRelayOpenTest Tests the Pin Matrix Module for shorted relays.
