Keyword Description
:SECondary:METHod
MEASure|SINE|SQUare|TRIangle|TSINe
Set the method by which the secondary peak-to-
peak value is calculated
MEASured = The measured positive peak minus the
measured negative peak value
SINe = The peak to peak of a sine wave calculated
from the rms value
SQUare = The peak to peak of a square wave
calculated from the rms value
TRIange = The peak to peak of a triangle waveform
calculated from the rms value
TRUNcated = The peak to peak of a truncated sine
wave calculated from the rms value
:SECondary:METHod?
Returns the method by which the secondary peak-to-
peak value is calculated
:SHUNt? [list#] Returns {Asset#, Manufacturer, Model, Serial#,
Resistance, Max Current, Power Ref Level, Power
Coefficient} of the selected Shunt)
Note1: The first four items are quoted strings; the
remaining item are <nrf> format values.
Note2: If the optional <list#> is supplied that record is
returned, otherwise the active shunt record is
returned.
Note3: Index ‘0’ is the ‘Basic’ shunt slot and is
always available.
:SHUNt:ADD <list> Add a new shunt as a comma-separated string of
attributes {Asset#, Manufacturer, Model, Serial#,
Resistance, Max Current, Power Ref Level, Power
Coefficient}
See notes to SHUNt?
:SHUNt:COUNt?
Note: will always return at least 1 as the ‘Basic’ shunt
(slot ‘0’) will be included.
:SHUNt:DIFFerence?
Returns list of ac-dc difference as {frequency, and
difference in µA/A} for the selected shunt
:SHUNt:DIFFerence:ADD
<frequency>,<difference>
Adds a new ac-dc difference pair to the list of the
selected shunt.
:SHUNt:DIFFerence:REMove <diff#>
Remove the difference pair at <diff#> for the selected
shunt. Note: <diff#> can be obtained with
:SHUNt:DIFF?.
<diff# > can be found from …SHUNt:DIFF? list.
