DAQ6510 Data Acquisition and Logging, Multimeter System
TSP
®
technology also offers mainframe-less channel expansion.
The KTTI-TSP is a user installable accessory card offering
connectivity to TSP-Link technology. This channel expansion
bus allows connecting multiple DMM6510’s, other TSP-enabled
instruments, and any LAN-based instruments together to form a
tightly-synchronized instrument system. Connection is provided
with simple low cost Category 5 Ethernet cabling. The system
is organized in a master-subordinate configuration, essentially
allowing the connected instruments to act as one. Other Keithley
TSP-enabled instruments include the 2450, 2460, and 2461

Source Measure Unit (SMU) Instruments,
Series 2600B SourceMeter

(SMU) Instruments, DMM7510,
DMM6500, and Series 3700A Switch/Multimeter systems. TSP-
Link technology supports up to 32 instruments, so it’s easy to
scale a system to fit the requirements of an application.
With the TSP-Link interface option, the KTTI-TSP, the DAQ6510
can control other Keithley TSP instruments or control any
instrument with a LAN interface. For example, the DAQ6510 can
send commands to a temperature chamber to operate at specific
temperatures and execute a scan when the chamber has reached
the programmed temperatures. In fact, the DAQ6510 can execute an
automated sequence entirely without a PC thus saving test time and reducing the capital cost of the system. Using the TSP
language to create a script, the user can display messages for an operator in an automated or a semi-automated test system.
Data Logging Software Simplifies PC Control, Acquisition, and Analysis
KickStart allows you to configure, test, and collect data from multiple instruments, including DMMs, power supplies, SMU
instruments, and dataloggers. You can control up to eight instruments at the same time and retrieve millions of readings
from each instrument. This makes KickStart a great solution for your datalogging needs and for capturing lots of data from
transient events with a digitizing DMM.
Getting insights quickly is important, so KickStart plots your data immediately and dedicates a large portion of the viewing
area to the graph, while also allowing you to view and edit the most essential parameters of other instruments in your test
setup. Kickstart also includes comparison tools to allow you to plot and overlay data from the run history of each test.
KICKSTART DATA LOGGING APPLICATION
Use the datalogger application to set up, program, and control the DAQ6510. Within minutes, configure channels, set
measurement parameters such as limits and trigger sources, and view results in real time.
