Section 13: Factory Scripts Series 2600 System SourceMeter® Instruments Reference Manual
Introduction
The Series 2600 is shipped with one or more Factory Scripts saved in its flash firmware memory. A
factory script is made up of a number of functions. Some of them can be called from the front panel
LOAD TEST menu. All of them can be called using remote programming.
As Keithley Instruments develops additional factory scripts, they will be made available on the
Keithley Instruments web site (www.keithley.com) as a flash firmware upgrade for the Series 2600.
See “
Flash firmware upgrade” for instructions on upgrading the flash firmware of your Series 2600.
Factory script
KIGeneral
The KIGeneral factory script is made up of the following functions. All of these functions can be
accessed from both the front panel and the remote interfaces.
PulseIMeasureV(smu, bias, level, ton, toff, points)
PulseVMeasureI(smu, bias, level, ton, toff, points)
SweepILinMeasureV(smu, starti, stopi, stime, points)
SweepVLinMeasureI(smu, startv, stopv, stime, points)
SweepILogMeasureV(smu, starti, stopi, stime, points)
SweepVLogMeasureI(smu, startv, stopv, stime, points)
SweepIListMeasureV(smu, ilist, stime, points)
SweepVListMeasureI(smu, vlist, stime, points)
Details on the above functions are provided in the following tables.
