Series 2600 System SourceMeters Reference Manual Instrument Control Library 12-75
Return to Section 12 topics 2600S-901-01 Rev. A / May 2006
Remarks
• This function will start a measurement and return immediately. The measurements,
as they are performed, are stored in a reading buffer (along with any ancillary
information also being acquired). If the instrument is configured to return multiple
readings where one is requested, the readings will be available as they are made.
• The smuX.measure.overlappediv function stores both current and voltage
readings in respective buffers (current and then voltage are stored in separate
buffers).
• This function is an overlapped command. Script execution will continue while the
measurement(s) is made in the background. Attempts to access result values that
have not yet been generated will cause the script to block and wait for the data to
become available. The
waitcomplete function can also be used to wait for the
measurement(s) to complete before continuing.
• If a given reading buffer contains any data, it will be cleared prior to taking any
measurements, unless the reading buffer has been configured to append data.
Details See “Reading buffers” in Section 7.
