Model 2601B-PULSE System SourceMeter Instrument Reference Manual Section 3: Instrument description
2601B-PULSE-901-01A April 2020 3-23
If the operator presses EXIT(LOCAL) instead of entering a source value, value will be set to nil.
The second line of the above code can be replaced using the other input field function:
value = display.inputvalue("0.00")
The only difference is that the display prompt will not include the “V” units designator and the Enter
source value message.
Indicators
To determine which front-panel display indicators are turned on, use the
display.getannunciators() function. For example, to determine which display indicators are
turned on, send the following commands.
annun = display.getannunciators()
print(annun)
The 16-bit binary equivalent of the returned value is a bitmap. Each bit corresponds to an indicator. If
the bit is set to 1, the indicator is turned on. If the bit is set to 0, the indicator is turned off.
The following table identifies the bit position for each indicator. The table also includes the weighted
value of each bit. The returned value is the sum of all the weighted values for the bits that are set.
Bit identification for indicators
* The weighted values are for bits that are set to 1. Bits set to 0 have no value.
Not all the indicators shown in above table may be used by the 2601B-PULSE.
For example, assume the returned bitmap value is 34061. The binary equivalent of this value is
as follows:
1000010100001101
For the above binary number, the following bits are set to 1: 16, 11, 9, 4, 3, and 1. Using the table, the
following indicators are on: REL, REM, EDIT, AUTO, 4W, and FILT.
