Using the Meter Functions
Each power module has a fully integrated voltmeter and ammeter to
measure the actual voltage and current being sourced from the
output to the device under test. The accuracy of the voltage and
current measurements is based on the type of power modules that are
installed, as documented in the Agilent N6700 Modular Power System
Family Specifications Guide.
Meter View
From the front panel
Each output has its own measurement capability. When the Meter
view is displayed, the measurement system continuously measures
the output voltage and current. The measurement system acquires as
many points as needed based on the number of power line cycles
(NPLC) and the time interval, and averages the samples. The default
view displays all four outputs.
A single-output view displays more information about the selected
output. Press the Meter View key to toggle between the two views.
From the remote interface:
To trigger and return DC current or voltage measurements:
MEAS:CURR? (@1)
MEAS:VOLT? (@1)
To return a previously triggered DC current or voltage:
FETC:CURR? (@1)
FETC:VOLT? (@1)
