User’s Manual SCPI Command Reference 18-109
Control beeper
[:IMMediate] <freq, time>
:SYSTem:BEEPer[:IMMediate] <freq, time>
Parameters freq = 65 to 2e6 Specify frequency in Hz
time = 0 to 7.9 Specify time duration
NOTE The frequency and time values must be separated by a comma (i.e., :syst:beep
100, 3).
Description The beeper of the SourceMeter can be used to provide an audible signal
at a specified frequency and time duration (up to 7.9 seconds @ 65Hz).
This beeper can, for example, be used to signal the end of a lengthy
sweep.
Example: :SYSTem:BEEPer500, 1 Beep at 500Hz for 1 second
The correlation between the duration and frequency of the beep is
expressed as follows:
Maximum Time = 512/ Frequency
For example, at a frequency of 512Hz, the maximum beep time is one
second. You can set the time greater than one (1) second, but it will only
beep for one second.
Note that in order to use this command, the beeper must be enabled.
(See next command.)
