--Discharge the capacitor to 0 V and turn off the output
smu.source.level = 0
delay(2)
smu.source.output = smu.OFF
This example uses smu.measure.count to do a capacitor test. This outputs 200 readings that are similar to
the following output:
Rdg # Time (s) Current (A)
1 0 8.5718931952528e-11
2 0.151875 1.6215984111057e-10
3 0.303727 1.5521139928865e-10

This example uses the Simple Loop trigger model template to do a capacitor test. This also outputs 200
readings that are similar to the following:
