DIODe Command
:RANGe[:UPPer] <NRf>
Command syntax:
[:SENSe[1]]:DIODe:CURRent:RANGe[:UPPer] <NRf> Specify current range for diode test
Command parameter:
<NRf> = 1 (1 mA) Specify diode test current to 1 mA
10 (10 μA) Specify diode test current to 10 μA
100 (100 μA) Specify diode test current to 100 μA
Query:
[UPPer]? Query selected range
Description:
There are three current ranges available for the diode test: 10 μA range, 100 μA and 1 mA range.
Range is selected by using this command to specify one of the above current range for the diode
under test. Be sure to set the instrument for diode measurement function prior to using this
command because it will set or query the range for the current measurement function instead.
CONTinuity Command
:THReshold <n>
Command Syntax:
[:SENSe[1]]:CONTinuity:THReshold <NRf>
Command parameter:
<NRf> = 1 to 1000 Specify threshold in ohms
Query:
:THReshold? Query threshold resistance
Description:
This command is used to specify the threshold resistance for the continuity test. Continuity occurs
when the measurement is less than or equal to the specified threshold level.
