Default Settings After Power-on, *RST, or *TST?
Before discussing the ten programming steps and their recommended
sequence, it is important to understand that for a given programming
situation, you may not have to send commands to set conditions that are
default states. The default instrument states are:
SCP Set-up:
All SCP settings defaulted (see SCP manuals).
A/D Filter:
OFF
Engineering Units (EU)
linked to channels:
DC Volts, autorange linked to channels 0
through 63.
Scan list assignment
and selection:
Scan list 1 is selected and has channels 0
through 63 assigned.
Trigger system:
Trigger system is in Trigger Idle State (not
INITiated
). Arm source set to
IMMediate
. Trigger
source set to
HOLD
. Trigger count set to 1.
Sample Timer set to 10 ms.
Data Format:
ASCII
FIFO mode:
BLOCK
Default Operation
By executing only three commands after
*RST
, the HP E1313/E1413 will
execute a single scan of all 64 channels and return 64 voltage values from
the FIFO.
Example Command Sequence
*RST
Insure module is in default state.
INIT:IMM
Initiate trigger system for scan.
TRIG:IMM
Software trigger begins scan.
SENS:DATA:FIFO:ALL?
Recover 64 readings from FIFO.
