Function Reference
This section describes the functions of VXIplug&play driver for the Agilent B1500.
The functions are appeared in alphabetical order.
agb1500_abortMeasure
This function aborts the B1500’s present operation, such as the measurement
executed by the agb1500_startMeasure function, the dc bias output by the
agb1500_force function, and so on.
Syntax ViStatus _VI_FUNC agb1500_abortMeasure(ViSession vi);
Parameters vi Instrument handle returned from agb1500_init( ).
agb1500_addSampleSyncIv
This function specifies the constant voltage/current source for the sampling
measurements, and sets the parameters.
Syntax ViStatus _VI_FUNC agb1500_addSampleSyncIv(ViSession vi, ViInt32 channel,
ViInt32 mode, ViReal64 range, ViReal64 base, ViReal64 bias, ViReal64 comp);
Parameters vi Instrument handle returned from agb1500_init( ).
channel Slot number of the slot that installs the SMU to be used. See
Table 2-2.
mode Source output mode. 1 (current) or 2 (voltage).
range Output ranging mode. 0 (auto) or positive value (limited auto).
base Source output value during hold time (in A or V).
bias Source output value in the sampling measurement (in A or V).
comp Compliance value (in V or A). It must be voltage for the current
source, or current for the voltage source.
NOTE range, base, bias, comp parameters
Available values depend on the unit. See “Parameters” on page 2-8.
