Series 2600 System SourceMeter® Instruments Reference Manual Section 12: Instrument Control Library
Remarks • This attribute controls the SMU action taken when the output enable or interlock line is
asserted/de-asserted. The default setting is smuX.OE_NONE.
• This attribute is always set to OE_OUTPUT_OFF for the Model 2611/2612 and is read-
only.
• When set to smuX.OE_NONE, the SMU will take no action when the output enable or
interlock line goes low (de-asserted).
• When set to smuX.OE_OUTPUT_OFF and the output enable or interlock line is de-
asserted, the SMU will turn its output off as if the
smuX.source.output =
smuX.OUTPUT_OFF
command had been received.
• The SMU will not automatically turn its output on when the output enable or interlock
line returns to the high state.
• If the output enable or interlock line is not asserted when this attribute is set to
smuX.OE_OUTPUT_OFF and the output is on, the output will turn off immediately.
• Detection of the output enable or interlock line going low will not abort any running
scripts. This may cause execution errors.
Details See “Output Enable (Models 2601/2602)” in Section 10.
