The Scanning Voltmeter
The switchbox device driver discussed in Chapter 2 DOES NOT apply to the
E8462A multiplexer when part of a scanning voltmeter. The note on Page
117 prescribes the use of the Agilent E1326/E1411 5½-Digit Multimeter
device driver and command reference. The multimeter's Command Quick
Reference is provided at the end of this chapter for your scanning voltmeter
application reference. Use your Agilent E1326/E1411 5½-Digit Multimeter
User's Manual for detailed information about multimeter commands used
with the scanning voltmeter. The scanning voltmeter is easily configured to
perform voltage, 2-wire ohms, 4-wire ohms or a combination of 1-, 2-, 3- or
4-wire measurements over the module's internal analog bus. The E1326/
E1411 multimeter automatically controls the channels and tree relays when
you use the
MEASure
or
CONFigure
commands. Tree relays are described
in Table 4-2.
Table 4-1.
