Section 14: SCPI command reference Model 6517B Electrometer Reference Manual

14-44 6517B-901-01 Rev. C / August 2015

:CLIMits:FAIL?

This command reads the composite result of limit tests.

Usage

:CALCulate3:CLIMits:FAIL?

Details

This query command is used to obtain the composite result of the LIMIT 1 and LIMIT 2 tests. The

composite result is the logical ORed summary of LIMIT 1 and LIMIT 2:

1 = One or both tests have failed

0 = Both tests have passed

In the event of a failure (1), you can determine which test(s) has failed by using the fail command of

each limit (:LIMit1:FAIL? and :LIMit2:FAIL?).

This command (like other fail commands) does not clear the fail indication for LIMIT 1 or LIMIT 2.

BSTRobe:STATe <b>

This command controls the binning strobe.

Usage

:CALCulate3:BSTRobe:STATe <b>

<b>

 1 or ON: Enable binning strobe

 0 or OFF: Disable binning strobe

Details

This command is used to enable or disable the strobe for the binning operation. When enabled, digital

output line #4 is used for the binning strobe pulse. After the appropriate digital pattern is placed on

the other three lines of the output port, the >10 µsec strobe pulse is asserted on line #4. The strobe is

used to "inform" your external binning circuit that the output port (lines 1, 2 and 3) is ready to be read.
