How do I use TSB to make measurements?
Reference See “Remote source-measure procedure” in Section 4 and Section 12 of the Series
2600 Reference Manual for details on instrument commands.
The following procedure uses the TSB Instrument Console to send commands to source voltage
and measure current on Channel A using a 10kΩ resistor as the DUT. The complete command
sequence as it would appear in the console window is shown in
Figure 2-6 on page 2-9 along with
instrument responses.
The procedure assumes the DUT (10kΩ resistor) is already connected to the Series 2600 (Figure
1-4 on page 1-14), and that the instrument resource has already been opened (“Open and close
an instrument resource” on page 2-6).
