Model 2601B-PULSE System SourceMeter Instrument Reference Manual Section 6: Triggering
2601B-PULSE-901-01A April 2020 6-39
Remote digital I/O commands
Commands that control and access the digital I/O port are summarized in the following table. See the
TSP command reference (on page 11-1) for complete details on these commands. See the following
table for decimal and hexadecimal values used to control and access the digital I/O port and
individual lines. Use these commands to trigger the 2601B-PULSE using external trigger pulses
applied to the digital I/O port, or to provide trigger pulses to external devices.
Use these commands to perform basic steady-state digital I/O operations such as reading and writing
to individual I/O lines or reading and writing to the entire port.
The digital I/O lines can be used for both input and output. You must write a 1 to all digital I/O lines
that are to be used as inputs.
