boxNr

slotNr
Valid range: 1-21
channel
See Table 4-4, “Valid Range For The “Channel” Parameters,” on
page 3.
Note:
Only one sense-channel in the system can be set at a time - so
after the current measurement the actuated sense relays
must be “unlocked” by calling the routine with the channel
paramter set to 0.
The E6176A is a special model which shares oen sense
resistor for two adjacent load channels. (see E6198B Switch
