channel.getclose() (on page 13-46) 
channel.getstate() (on page 13-56) 
dmm.open() (on page 13-154) 
Example 
To close Channel 3 on Slot 3 and prepare the DMM for measuring temperature at 
'mytemperature' settings: 
dmm.setconfig('3003', 'mytemperature') 
dmm.close('3003')  
To close a channel pattern called mychans and prepare DMM for measuring 
'dcvolts' at factory default settings: 
dmm.setconfig('mychans', 'dcvolts') 
dmm.close('mychans')  
dmm.configure.catalog() 
Function 
Creates an iterator for the user-created DMM configurations. 
Usage 
for name in dmm.configure.catalog() do … end 
Remarks 
Accessing the catalog for user DMM configurations allows the user to print or delete all 
configurations in volatile memory. The entries will be enumerated in no particular 
order. This will only list user-created DMM configurations; it does not list the factory 
default configurations.

for name in dmm.configure.catalog() do 
 dmm.configure.delete(name) 
end 
To print all user-created DMM configurations in volatile memory: 
for name in dmm.configure.catalog() do

end 
dmm.configure.delete()
