To run the test, send the following commands to the corresponding instrument.
After each
:READ?
query to the Model 2400, you must retrieve the instrument's response. If you do
not retrieve the response, the Model 2400 generates an error.

:OUTP:STAT OFF
Turn off the output of the SourceMeter
instrument.
707B or 708B
channel.open("allslots")
Open all crosspoints.
Example 2: Digital I/O triggering for switch-measure
synchronization
In this example, you will configure both the Model 707B or 708B and the SourceMeter instrument to
wait for and send digital trigger signals after each performs the requested switch closure or measure
action.
Example program code for the Model 2400
TSB and TSB Embedded cannot be used to control the Model 2400 SourceMeter. You are expected
to send commands to the Model 2400 using a separate application development environment, such
as Microsoft Visual Studio or National Instruments' Labview.
