Voltage sweep based on a configuration list
The following TSP example shows a voltage sweep that is based on a configuration list. It performs
the following actions:
• Reset the instrument to its defaults
• Create a source configuration list called CurrListSweep.
• Set the source function to current.
• Set the source current range to 100 mA.
• Set the source current level to 1 mA.
• Save the source settings to CurrListSweep.
• Set the source current level to 10 mA.
• Save the source settings to CurrListSweep.
• Set the source current level to 5 mA
• Save the source settings to CurrListSweep.
• Set the source current level to 7 mA.
• Save the source settings to CurrListSweep.
• Set the source current level to 11 mA.
• Save the source settings to CurrListSweep.
• Set the source current level to 9 mA.
• Save the source settings to CurrListSweep.
• Set up a list sweep that uses the entries from the CurrListSweep configuration list and starts at
index 1 of the list.
• Start the sweep.
No buffer is defined, so the data is stored in defbuffer1. See Reading buffers (on page 3-2) for
more information on reading buffers.
