Slaughter 6330 - IEEE 488.2 Common Commands

REMOTE BUS INTERFACE: RS-232
72
the test was executed starting from step 3 and ending with step 5 then the first step test
results will be found in location 3 not in location 1. Each parameter is separated by
commas and includes step number, test type, test status, and metering. The syntax for this
command response is {memory - step, test type, status, meter 1, meter 2, meter 3}. Each
meter will contain both the value and the units.
RR?
Read the remote Reset input signal. When the remote reset has be activated by closing the
contacts the query will return a value of 0 to indicate the instrument is being Reset.
RI?
Read the remote Interlock input signal. When the remote Interlock has be activated by
opening the contacts the query will return a value of 1 to indicate the instrument is in the
Interlock state and will not be able to generate output voltage or current.
LS?
Lists all the Parameters for the individual step that is currently selected.
The response will be formatted as follows; <step, test, p1, p2, p3…> Where <step> is the
step number, <test> is the test type and <p1,p2> etc., indicates the parameters of the test.
LS <step number>?
Lists all the Parameters for the individual step indicated by step number = 1-30.
The response will be formatted as follows; <step, test, p1, p2, p3…> Where <step> is the
step number, <test> is the test type and <p1,p2> etc., indicates the parameters of the test.
IEEE 488.2 Common Commands
These commands are required by the IEEE-488.2 standard with the exception of *PSC,
*PSC?. Most of these commands are not available over the RS-232 bus except for the
*IDN? command which can be used to retrieve the instrument identification information,
and the four status reporting commands *ESR?, *ESE, *ESE? and *STB?.
