:CURRent <n>
[:SENSe[1]]:RESistance:CURRent <n> Set RTD or thermistor sensor current
Parameters <n> = 3e-6 to 2.5e-3 Set sensor current (3.3e-6, 1e-5,
3.33e-5, 1e-4, 8.333e-4, 2.5e-3)
MINimum 3e-6
MAXimum 2.5e-3
DEFault 2.5e-3 (100Ω range)
8.333e-4 (1kΩ range)
1e-4 (10kΩ range)
3.33e-5 (100kΩ range)
Query :CURRent? Query sensor current
Description This command programs the temperature sensor (transducer) excitation
current. It affects only thermistor and RTD sensor types. Nominal sen-
sor currents are: 3.3e-6, 1e-5, 3.33e-5, 1e-4, 8.333e-4, and 2.5e-3.
:AUTO <b>
[:SENSe[1]]:RESistance:CURRent:AUTO <b> Enable/disable auto sensor current
Parameters <b> = 1 or ON Enable auto sensor current
0 or OFF Disable auto sensor current
Query :AUTO? Query auto sensor current state
Description This command enables or disables the auto sensor current mode. When
the auto current mode is enabled, the sensor current is set as follows:
Range Current
100Ω RTD or thermistor 2.5mA
1kΩ RTD or thermistor 833.3µA
10kΩ thermistor 100µA
100kΩ thermistor 33.3µA
:TRANsducer <name>
[:SENSe[1]]:RESistance:TRANsducer <name> Select resistance temperature sensor
Parameters <name> = THERmistor Select thermistor sensor
RTD Select RTD sensor
Query :TRANsducer? Query sensor type
Description This command selects the temperature sensor for the resistance func-
tion. Only thermistor and RTD sensor types are available for the resis-
tance function.
