Usage
senseMode = smua.sense
smua.sense = senseMode
The sense mode; set to one of the following:
â–ª 0 or smua.SENSE_LOCAL: Selects local sense (2-wire)
â–ª 1 or smua.SENSE_REMOTE: Selects remote sense (4-wire)
â–ª 3 or smua.SENSE_CALA: Selects calibration sense mode
Details
You can do source-measure operations using either 2-wire local sense connections or 4-wire remote
sense connections.
When the pulser is enabled, the instrument always uses 4-wire remote sensing. The setting of
smua.sense is ignored.
You can change the sense mode between local and remote while the output is on.
The smua.SENSE_CALA mode is only used for calibration and may only be selected when calibration
is enabled. The calibration sense mode cannot be selected while the output is on.
Example
smua.sense = smua.SENSE_REMOTE
Select 4-wire remote sensing.
