12: SCPI command reference 2470 High Voltage SourceMeter Instrument
12-28 2470-901-01 Rev. A / May 2019
The binary representation of the value indicates the output pattern to be written to the I/O port. For
example, a value of 63 has a binary equivalent of 111111 (all lines are set high); a data value of 42
has a binary equivalent of 101010 (lines 2, 4, and 6 are set high, and the other three lines are
set low).
An instrument reset does not affect the present states of the digital I/O lines.
All six lines must be configured as digital control lines. If not, this command generates an error.
Example
Sets digital I/O lines 1 through 6 high (binary 111111).
