Model 2651A High Power System SourceMeter® Instrument Reference Manual Section 7: Command reference

2651A-901-01 Rev. A / March 2011 7-141

Details

This function is useful for aliasing attributes to improve execution speed. Calling the setter function will execute

faster than accessing the attribute directly.

Creating a setter function is only useful if it is going to be called several times. If you are not calling the

setter function several times, it is more efficient to access the attribute directly.

Example

setlevel = makesetter(smua.source, "levelv")

for v = 1, 10 do

setlevel(v)

end

Creates a setter function called

setlevel.

Using setlevel() in the loop

sets the value of

smua.source.levelv,

performing a source sweep.
