After you get the IDVD setup data, you will see the Classic Test setup screen as shown.
The Channel Setup screen allows the user to assign a meaningful name to the force/meas functions of
each SMU. These names may be used in the Function Setup screen to define algebraic expressions.
The Mode column is used to determine whether a particular SMU is to be used to 1) force current
and measure voltage (I mode), or 2) force voltage and measure current (V mode). The entry
COMMON implies the node is used as "ground."
The Function column defines which SMUs are to be used as swept sources or constant sources.
VAR1 is the primary swept source. VAR2 is known as the subordinate swept source, meaning
VAR1 will sweep through its range, then VAR2 will step and VAR1 will sweep again. CONST is
self- explanatory.
