Command Reference
Command Reference
ACH
The ACH command translates the specified program channel number to the
specified actual channel number at the program execution. This command is useful
when you use a control program created for an instrument, such as the 4142B,
4155B/4155C/4156B/4156C, and E5260/E5270, that has a module configuration
different from the E5260/E5270 actually you use. After the ACH command, enter
the *OPC? command to confirm that the command execution is completed.
Syntax
ACH [ actual [, program ]]
Parameter
actual : Channel number actually used for measurement instead of program .
The value must be slot number where the module has been installed in
the E5260/E5270. Integer expression. 1 to 8 (1 and 5 are not available
for HPSMU). See
Table 4-1 on page 4-9 .
program : Channel number used in a program and will be replaced with actual .
Integer expression.
If you do not set program , this command is the same as ACH n , n .
If you do not set actual and program , the all channel number mapping is cleared.
For parameter settings, you cannot use the variables set by the VAR command.
Remarks
The ACH commands must be put at the beginning of the program or before the
command line that includes a
program channel number. In the program lines that
follow the ACH command, you must leave the program channel numbers. The
measurement data is returned as the data of the channel program , not actual .
Example
Statements
If you want to use channels 1 to 3 instead of channels 5 to 7 respectively, enter the
following statements. The measurement data is returned as the data of channel 5, not
channel 1.
