Set up the application using TSP commands with the trigger model
Send the following commands for this example application:
--Reset the instruments and the TSP-Link connection, and clear the buffers.
tsplink.initialize()
reset()
--If the tsplink state is not online, print an error message and quit
state = tsplink.state
if state ~= "online" then
print("Error:\n-Check that all SMUs have a different node number")
print("-Check that all SMUs are connected correctly\n")
return
