Keithley 2010 User Manual

Taking readings with the scanner card
The Model 2000-SCAN is an optional 10-channel scanner card for the Model 2010
Multimeter. Only one channel can be closed at a time. If you close a channel while another is
already closed, the first one opens with break-before-make operation.
You can use the scanner card two ways. One way is to issue a command to close a particular
channel before sending other commands to take readings. The other way is to program the scan
list and let the meter take care of closing a channel before taking a reading.
The following example program measures DC volts on channel 1, AC volts on channel 2, and
2-wire resistance on channel 3 using the ROUTe:CLOSe command.
