Model 6220/6221 User’s Manual Delta, Pulse Delta, and Differential Conductance 5-43
Return to Section 5 topics
1. Use the :NVPR? command to determine if a suitable Model 2182/2182A with
the correct firmware revision is properly connected to the RS-232 port. This
query command can be used for the system configuration shown in
Figure 5-2B on page 5-5.
The RS-232 cannot be the selected interface for the Model 6221. If it is, this
query will generate error -221 Settings Conflict.
2. See “Configuration settings” on page 5-37 for more information on these set-
tings (:STARt, :STEP, :STOP, :DELTa, :DELay, and :CABort).
3. After setting up Differential Conductance using the above setup commands,
the :ARM command arms Differential Conductance. During the arming pro-
cess, the Model 622x communicates with the Model 2182/2182A.
When armed, Differential Conductance will start when the Model 6221 is trig-
gered. Differential Conductance can be “un-armed” by sending the following
command: SOURce:SWEep:ABORt.
