5-20 Pulse Mode Operation (Model 2430 only) 2400 Series SourceMeter

User’s Manual
Turning source on
For remote Pulse Mode operation, an :INITiate command is used to start the pulse output
process. The :READ? command will send :INITiate to start the pulse process, and it will
also acquire the pulse readings. The :INITiate command by itself will start the pulse pro-
cess, but it will not acquire any pulse readings. (If you use :INITiate to start the pulse pro-
cess, you should then use :FETCh? to acquire readings.) The pulse process can be stopped
at any time by sending the :ABORt command.
Sending :OUTPut[1][:STATe] ON will also send :INITiate to start the pulse process. Note
however, that you cannot use :OUTPut[1][:STATe] OFF to abort the pulse output process.
SCPI signal oriented measurement commands
The :CONFigure:<function> and :MEASure[:<function>]? commands are invalid and
cause error +831: Invalid in Pulse Mode. These commands are documented in Section 17.
