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

The SMU will only store the most recent configured source action. The last call to
smuX.trigger.source.linearY(), smuX.trigger.source.listY(), or
smuX.trigger.source.logY() is used for the source action.
Source functions cannot be changed within a sweep.
After configuring the sweep source values, enable the source action by setting
smuX.trigger.source.action.
Example
smua.trigger.source.logv(1, 10, 11, 0)
Sweeps SMU channel A from 1 V
to 10 V in 10 steps with an
asymptote of 0 V.

smuX.trigger.source.set()
This function sets the source event detector to the detected state.
Type TSP-Link accessible
Affected by Where saved Default value
Function Yes
Usage
smuX.trigger.source.set()
X
Source-measure unit (SMU) channel (for example,
smua.trigger.source.set() applies to SMU channel A)
Details
This function sets the source event detector to the detected state.
The SMU will automatically clear all event detectors when the smuX.trigger.initiate() function is
executed. This function should be called after the sweep is initiated. Make sure that if the event detectors are
configured to automatically clear (because the smuX.trigger.autoclear attribute is set to smuX.ENABLE)
that this command is issued after the SMU has entered the trigger layer.
