Data elements
:ELEMents <item list>
:FORMat:ELEMents <item list> Specify data elements for data string
Parameters <item list> = VOLTage Includes voltage reading
CURRent Includes current reading
POWer Includes power reading
RESistance Includes resistance reading
TEMPerature Includes temperature reading
TSENsor Includes sensor reading
TIME Includes timestamp
STATus Includes status information
NOTE Each item in the list must be separated by a comma (i.e., :ELEMents, VOLTage,
CURRent, RESistance).
Query :ELEMents? Query elements in data string
Description This command is used to specify the elements to be included in the data
string in response to the following queries:
:FETCh?
:READ?
:MEASure[:<function>]?
You can specify from one to all five elements. Each element in the list
must be separated by a comma (,). These elements (shown in
Figure 10-1) are explained as follows:
NOTE An overflow reading reads as +9.9E37.
VOLTage — This element provides the TEC voltage measurement.
CURRent — This element provides the TEC current measurement.
RESistance — This element provides the TEC resistance measurement.
TEMPerature — This element provides the TEC temperature
measurement.
TSENSor — This element provides the sensor temperature
measurement.
TIME — A timestamp is available to reference each group of readings
to a point in time. The relative timestamp operates as a timer that starts
at zero seconds when the instrument is turned on or when the relative
timestamp is reset (:SYSTem:TIME:RESet). The timestamp for each
reading sent over the bus is referenced, in seconds, to the start time.
STATus — Each and every measurement performed by the Model 2510
has a STATus word associated with it. This STATus word is accessible
via the :FORMat:ELEMents STATus element. Internally, the Model
2510 maintains this STATus element as a 16-bit integer. Each bit within
this integer provides status information about a particular process asso-
ciated with the construction of the measurement. However, when que-
ried, the decimal equivalent is returned. The format of the STATus
element is as follows:
