smua.trigger.measure.action
This attribute controls measurement actions during a sweep.
SMU reset
Instrument reset
Recall setup
Usage
action = smua.trigger.measure.action
smua.trigger.measure.action = action
The sweep measurement action; set to one of the following values:
â–ª 0 or smua.DISABLE: Do not make measurements during the sweep
â–ª 1 or smua.ENABLE: Make measurements during the sweep
â–ª 2 or smua.ASYNC: Make measurements during the sweep, but
asynchronously with the source area of the trigger model
Details
With this attribute enabled (setting action to smua.ENABLE or smua.ASYNC), configure the
measurement with one of the smua.trigger.measure.Y() functions.
If this attribute is set to smua.ASYNC:
• Asynchronous sweep measurements can only be used with measure autoranging turned off. To
turn measure autoranging off for all measurements during the sweep, set the
smua.measure.autorangeY attribute to smua.AUTORANGE_OFF.
• Autozero must also be turned off. To turn off autozero, set the smua.measure.autozero
attribute to smua.AUTOZERO_OFF or smua.AUTOZERO_ONCE.
• The reading buffer used by smua.trigger.measure.Y() must have
bufferVar.collectsourcevalues set to 0.
If any of the above items is incorrectly configured, the smua.trigger.initiate() function
generates an error.
