Models 2500 and 2502 User’s Manual SCPI Command Reference 17-23
CALCulate[1] and CALCulate2 Configure and control math functions
The CALC1 and CALC2 commands control math functions for channel 1 and channel 2
respectively. They perform the remote equivalents to the front panel CONFIG MSR1 and
CONFIG MSR2 configuration menus.
Select math function
FORMat <name>
:CALCulate[1]:FORMat <name> Select channel 1 math function
Parameters <name> = MXB[1] MX + B
COND[1] I1/V1
POWER[1] V1*I1
RES[1] V1/I1
OP[1] (I
measured
– I
dark current
)/Responsivity
Query :FORMat? Query selected math function
Description This command selects the channel 1 math function. The channel 1 cur-
rent reading (I1) and source voltage (V1) are used to calculate COND1
(conductance), POWER1, and RES1 (resistance), while MX + B and
OP1 parameters are programmed separately (see below).
FORMat <name>
:CALCulate2:FORMat <name> Select channel 2 math function
Parameters <name> = MXB2 MX + B
COND2 I2/V2
POWER2 V2*I2
RES2 V2/I2
OP2 (I
measured
– I
dark current
)/Responsivity
Query :FORMat? Query selected math function
Description This command selects the channel 2 math function. The channel 2 cur-
rent reading (I2) and source voltage (V2) are used to calculate COND2
(conductance), POWER2, and RES2 (resistance), while MX + B and
OP2 parameters are programmed separately (see below).
