How do I use the buffer?
Reference Refer to Section 7 of the Series 2600 Reference Manual for more
detailed information on using the buffer.
The SourceMeter has two buffers per channel that can store from 1 to more than
100,000 readings. Each buffer reading is numbered and can also include the
source value and a timestamp.
The following example shows how to store 100 readings, source values, and
timestamps in Channel A, Buffer 1 and recall them from the front panel.
Step 1: Connect the DUT
Connect a 10kΩ resistor to the Channel A HI and LO terminals (Refer to
Figure 1-3).
Step 2: Set up source and measure functions
Using the procedure described in “How do I make measurements?” earlier in this
section, set-up source and measure functions:
• Source function: volts
• Source range: 20V (2611/2612) or 40V (2601/2602)
• Source value: 10V
• Measure function: current
• Measure range: auto
Step 3: Configure the buffer
1. Press the CONFIG key followed by the STORE key.
2. Choose COUNT, then set the number of readings to store to 100 using the
Rotary Knob, and press ENTER or the Rotary Knob.
3. Select CHANA_BUFF, then press ENTER or the Rotary Knob to select
Channel A.
4. Choose DEST, then CHANA_BUFFER1, and press ENTER or the Rotary
Knob.
5. Choose BUFFER1, then press ENTER or the Rotary Knob to set up Buffer 1.
6. Select CLEAR, then YES to clear the buffer.
7. Choose ELEMENTS, then enable (ON) both SRC-VAL (source value) and
TSTAMP (timestamp) storage.
8. Press EXIT several times to return to normal display.
