Details
Use of this command is not recommended with the exception of special cases. The default setting
should handle most applications.
This setting affects all DMM functions. Valid values are shown in the table below.
dmm.CONNECT_TWO_WIRE or 1
dmm.CONNECT_FOUR_WIRE or 3
dmm.CONNECT_TWO_WIRE_AMPS or 5
The relays are bitmapped into the lower 3 bits of the value as shown in the following table.
To close a relay, set the appropriate bit to 1.
To open a relay, set the appropriate bit to 0.
An error is generated if:
• The sense relay bit is set to a 1 and the sense relay with amps is selected. These two settings
correspond to a value of 2 or 6, respectively.
• The value is less than 0 or greater than 7.
Example
dmm.connect = dmm.CONNECT_TWO_WIRE_AMPS
Connects the DMM 2-wire and amp relays to
the analog backplane.
