2400 Series SourceMeter
®
User’s Manual SCPI Command Reference 18-111
Follow these general steps to program and use NPLC caching:
1. Send this command to disable auto zero: SYST:AZER OFF.
2. Enable NPLC caching by sending: SYST:AZER:CACH ON.
3. Set up and run your source memory sweep with the :SOUR:MEM
commands along with the various other commands required to pro-
gram additional operating modes. (See “Configure memory sweep,”
as well as other pertinent command descriptions in this section, for
details.)
NOTE Auto zero should be disabled with the :SYST:AZER OFF command for maximum
source memory sweep speed; otherwise, the cache is of little use. With auto zero
enabled, new A/D reference and zero values are taken for every reading and
saved into the cache, slowing down sweep operation. However, with auto zero
disabled, measurements may drift and become erroneous. To minimize drift
when using NPLC caching with auto zero disabled, periodically send
:SYST:AZER ONCE to force an immediate auto zero update.

Query :AUTO? Query state of auto line frequency selection.
Description This command is used to enable or disable auto line frequency detec-

power-up and select the appropriate line frequency setting.
Manually setting the line frequency disables auto frequency. (See previ-
ous command.)
