5-20 Delta, Pulse Delta, and Differential Conductance Model 6220/6221 User’s Manual
Return to Section 5 topics
1. Use the :NVPResent 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.
2. See “Configuration settings” on page 5-15 for details on these settings.
3. After setting up Delta using the above setup commands, the :ARM command
arms Delta. During the arming process, the Model 622x communicates with
the Model 2182/2182A.
When armed, Delta will start when the Model 6221 is triggered. Delta can be
“un-armed” by sending the following command: SOURce:SWEep:ABORt.
The query form for the arm command (SOUR:DELT:ARM?) is used determine
if Delta is armed. A returned “1” indicates that Delta is armed. A “0” indicates
that Delta is not armed.
If the Model 6221 is already armed for a another action (e.g., Differential Con-
ductance or Pulse Delta), the Delta arm command will “un-arm” the other
action and arm Delta.
