Keithley 2400 Service Manual

B-6 Command Reference
:SENSE
(:CALibration:PROTected:SENSe)
Purpose To calibrate the sense function.
Format :cal:prot:sens <nrf>
Parameter See Table B-2.
Description The :CAL:PROT:SENS command calibrates the Model 2400 sense func-
tion. To use this command, you must (1) program the source to the correct
value, (2) select the range being calibrated, and (3) send the
:CAL:PROT:SENS command for each parameter listed in
Table B-2.
Note When the Model 2400 receives this command, it will attempt to place the
parameter into one of the three parameter ranges summarized, in
Table B-2,
depending on the active :SENS:FUNC and range. If the parameter does not
fit into any of the three allowed ranges, an error number -222, “Parameter
data out of range,” will be generated. Once the unit has successfully selected
the appropriate parameter range, it will then check to see if autorange for the
active :SENS:FUNC is enabled. If so, an error number -221, “Settings con
-
flict,” will be generated. If no error occurs, the active sense function/range
point will be calibrated using the corresponding parameter.
Note that parameters for a given sense function and range may be sent in
any order. However, once one :CAL:PROT:SENS command executes, the
other two must also be executed, or an error number -200, “Execution
error,” will occur when the :CAL:PROT:SAVE command is processed at the
end of the calibration procedure.
Example :CAL:PROT:SENS 2 Calibrate 2V sense range.
