smuX.source.compliance
X = SMU channel (a or b)
Attribute Source compliance state.
Usage compliance = smuX.source.compliance
Remarks
• Use this attribute to read the state of source compliance. true indicates that the limit
function is in control of the source (source in compliance). false indicates that the
source function is in control of the output (source not in compliance).
• This is a read-only attribute. Writing to this attribute will generate an error.
• Reading this attribute also updates the status model and the front panel with
generated compliance information.
Details See Section 4 (basic operation) and Appendix D (status model).
Also see smuX.source.limitY
Example Reads the source compliance state for SMU A:
compliance = smua.source.compliance

source).
