Example reading string
The example ASCII reading string shown in Figure 18-1 shows a
measurement of a 10kΩ resistor, with the SourceMeter configured to
Source I Measure V. The voltage reading is the voltage measure
-
ment (1.000236V), the current reading is the current source value
(100Ω, and the operation was performed 72.826 seconds after the
SourceMeter was turned on (or after timestamp was reset). The sta
-
tus reading of 48,132 indicates that bits 2, 10, 11, 12, 13, and 15 of
the status word are set.
SOURce2 <name>
:FORMat:SOURce2 <name> Set SOUR2 and TTL response formats
Parameters <name> = ASCii ASCII format
HEXadecimal Hexadecimal format
OCTal Octal format
BINary Binary format
Query :SOURce2? Query response format
Description This command controls the response format for all
CALC2:XXXX:SOUR2 and SOUR2:TTL queries in a manner similar
to formats set by the FORM:SREG command. See
“Calculate sub-
systems,” page 18-26, and “SOURce subsystem,” page 18-71, for
details.
CALC data elements
CALCulate <item list>
:FORMat:ELEMents:CALCulate <item list> Set CALC data elements
Parameters <item list> = CALC Include CALC1 or CALC2 data
TIME Include timestamp
STATus Include status information
NOTE Each item in the list must be separated by a comma (for example, :CALCu-
late CALC,TIME,STAT).
Query :CALCulate? Query CALC data element list
Description This command allows you to retrieve timestamp and status informa-
tion with the CALC1:DATA? And CALC2:DATA? queries. It also
allows you to retrieve timestamp and status information when
TRACe:FEED is set to CALC1 or CALC2. See
“Calculate sub-
systems,” page 18-26, for a complete description of CALC1 and
CALC2. See “Data elements,” page 18-49, for a description of TIME
and STATus information.
