SENSe1 subsystem
The Sense1 subsystem is used to configure and control the measurement functions of the
SourceMeter. Many of the commands are global, where a single command affects all func-
tions. Some commands are unique to a specific function. For example, you can program a
unique range setting for each basic function (amps, volts, and ohms).
A function does not have to be selected before you can program its various configurations.
Whenever a programmed function is selected, it assumes the programmed states.
The commands for this subsystem are summarized in Table 18-6.
Select measurement functions
CONCurrent <b>
[:SENSe[1]]:FUNCtion:CONCurrent <b> Control concurrent measurements
Parameters <b> = 0 or OFF Disable concurrent measurements
1 or ON Enable concurrent measurements
Query :CONCurrent? Query state of concurrent measurements
Description This command is used to enable or disable the ability of the instrument
to measure more than one function simultaneously. When enabled, the
instrument will measure the functions that are selected. (See “[:ON]
<function list>,” page 18-61, “OFF <function list>,” page 18-61, and
“ALL,” page 18-62.)
When disabled, only one measurement function can be enabled. When
making the transition from :CONCurrent ON to :CONCurrent OFF, the
voltage (VOLT:DC) measurement function will be selected. All other
measurement functions will be disabled. Use the :FUNCTion[:ON]
command to select one of the other measurement functions.
NOTE For the Model 2430 Pulse Mode, concurrent measurements are always disabled.
Sending this command results in error +831.
