Meaning
Negative Value
Error code
Example
int status; double VRMS;
status = DMMGetLowFreqVRMS(0, 10.0, & VRMS);
DMMGetManDate
SMU2060 SMU2064
Description Get Manufacturing date stamp from the DMM hardware
#include "SMU2060.h"
int DMMGetManDate(int nDmm, int *month, int *day, int *year)
Remarks This function returns the DMM manufacturing date which is read from the hardware.
The month, day and year are returned as integers. This is used to track the DMM to a
specific manufacturing date.
Parameter
Type/Description
nDmm
int Identifies the DMM. DMMs are numbered starting
with zero.
month
int * A pointer to an integer where the month is stored
day
int * A pointer to an integer where the day is stored
year
int * A pointer to an integer where the year is stored
Return Value Integer error code or.
Value
Meaning
DMM_OKAY
Operation was successful.
DMM_E_DMM
Invalid DMM number.
Example int month, day, year, status
status = DMMGetManDate(0, &month, &day, &year);
DMMGetMax
SMU2060 SMU2064
Description Get Maximum reading history.
#include "SMU2060.h"
int DMMGetMax(int nDmm, double *lpdMax)
Remarks This function returns a double floating value that is the maximum (of the Min/Max
function) value since either a function change, range change or call to the
