Using the Digitizer
The Digitizer functions described in this section are not available on all
models. Refer to the Test Extensions feature under “Model Differences”
in chapter 1.
The digitizer function lets you access the enhanced voltage and current
measurement capabilities of the power system. You can:
Specify a measurement function and range.
Adjust the measurement sample rate.
Select a measurement window that can attenuate AC noise.
Retrieve arrays of the digitized current or voltage measurement.
Synchronize measurements using trigger signals.
When a remote interface measurement is in progress, the front panel
display may indicate “-- -- -- -- --“. Front panel measurements resume
when the remote measurement completes.
Programming the Digitizer
Select the Measurement Function and Range
The following commands select a measurement function. To enable the
measurement function, use:
Not Available
To enable voltage measurements:
SENS:FUNC:VOLT ON, (@1)
To enable current measurements:
If a power module has simultaneous measurements (see chapter 1,
“Model Differences”), you can enable BOTH voltage and current
measurements on the same output channel.
Some power modules also have multiple measurement ranges. Selecting
a lower measurement range provides greater measurement accuracy,
provided that the measurement does not exceed the range. To select
lower measurement ranges, use:
Select
.
Select the lower measurement
range from the voltage or
current dropdown menu. Then
press Select.
To set the 5 V measurement range:
SENS:VOLT:RANG 5, (@1)
To set the 1 A measurement range:
SENS:CURR:RANG 1, (@1)
