16-6 Common Commands 2400 Series SourceMeter
®
User’s Manual
*TRG programming example
The command sequence in Table 16-4 configures the SourceMeter to be controlled by bus
triggers. The last command, which sends a bus trigger, triggers one measurement. Each
subsequent bus trigger will also trigger a single measurement.
NOTE With :ARM:SOURce BUS selected, do not send any commands (except *TRG,
GET, DCL, SDC, IFC, and ABORt) while performing source-measure opera-
tions. Otherwise, erratic operation will occur.
*TST? — self-test query
Use this query command to perform a checksum test on ROM. The command places the
coded result (0 or 1) in the Output Queue. When the SourceMeter is addressed to talk, the
coded result is sent from the Output Queue to the computer.
A returned value of zero (0) indicates that the test passed, and a value of one (1) indicates
that the test failed.
