10-4 Signal Oriented Measurement Commands
:READ[1]? Trigger and return reading for the battery
channel (#1)
:READ[1]:ARRay? Trigger and return array of readings for the
battery channel (#1)
:READ2? Trigger and return reading for the charger
channel (#2)
:READ2:ARRay? Trigger and return array of readings for the
charger channel (#2)
The :READ? command is used to trigger and re
turn a single averaged reading, and the
:READ:ARRay? command is used to trigger and return an array of readings for the currently
selected function on the applicable channel (the battery channel being the default and the charger
channel requiring a 2 to be appropriately added to the command string). The averaged reading
or reading array is sent to the computer when the power supply is addressed to talk. The averaged
reading is displayed on the front panel. The front panel does not show an array of readings, only
the average of an array. All :READ commands apply to the presently selected function.
The number of readings to average or put in an array is set using the :SENSe:AVERage (for
v
oltage, current and DVM readings) or :SENSe:PCURrent:AVERage (for pulse-current
readings) command. See Sections 2 and 3 for details.
NOTES 1.
READ? and READ:ARRay? readings are always sent in exponent form.
2. There are no AVERage commands for long integration measurements. The array
size for long inte
gration readings is fixed at one. Therefore, both READ? and
READ:ARRay? will return a single long integration reading.
:MEASure[1][:<function>]? Execute :READ? on specified function for battery channel (#1)
:MEASure[1]:ARRay[:<function>]? Execute :READ:ARRay? on specified function for battery
channel (#1)
:MEASure2[:<function>]? Execute :READ2? on specified function for charger channel (#2)
:MEASure2:ARRay[:<function>]? Execute :READ2:ARRay? on specified function charger
channel (#2)
Parameters <function> = CURRent[:DC]Measure current
VOLTage[:DC]Measure voltage
PCURrent Measure pulse-current
DVMeter Measure DVM input
LINTegration Perform long integration current
measurements.
