Usage
smu.source.sweeplinear("configListName", start, stop, points)
smu.source.sweeplinear("configListName", start, stop, points, sDelay)
smu.source.sweeplinear("configListName", start, stop, points, sDelay, count)
smu.source.sweeplinear("configListName", start, stop, points, sDelay, count,
rangeType)
smu.source.sweeplinear("configListName", start, stop, points, sDelay, count,
rangeType, failAbort)
smu.source.sweeplinear("configListName", start, stop, points, sDelay, count,
rangeType, failAbort, dual)
smu.source.sweeplinear("configListName", start, stop, points, sDelay, count,
rangeType, failAbort, dual, bufferName)
configListName
A string that contains the name of the configuration list that the instrument will
create for this sweep
start
The voltage or current source level at which the sweep starts:
 Current: -1.05 A to 1.05 A
 Voltage: -1100 V to 1100 V
stop
The voltage or current at which the sweep stops:
 Current: -1.05 A to 1.05 A
 Voltage: -1100 V to 1100 V
points
The number of source-measure points between the start and stop values of the
sweep (2 to 1e6); to calculate the number of source-measure points in a sweep, use
the following formula:
Points = [(Stop - Start) / Step] + 1
sDelay
The delay between measurement points; default is smu.DELAY_AUTO, which
enables autodelay, or a specific delay value from 50
µ
s to 10 ks, or 0 for no delay
count
The number of times to run the sweep; default is 1:
 Infinite loop: smu.INFINITE
 Finite loop:
1
to
268,435,455
rangeType
The source range that is used for the sweep:
 Most sensitive source range for each source level in the sweep:
smu.RANGE_AUTO
 Best fixed range: smu.RANGE_BEST (default)
 Present source range for the entire sweep: smu.RANGE_FIXED
failAbort
Complete the sweep if the source limit is exceeded: smu.OFF
Abort the sweep if the source limit is exceeded:
smu.ON
(default)
