Table 9-6 Custom Sweep Programming Example; Table 9-7 Source Memory Sweep Commands - Keithley 6430 Instruction Manual

Custom sweep programming example
As an example of custom sweep operation, assume a five-point sweep with the following
parameters:
Source Function: volts
Sense Function: current
Voltage Sweep Mode: list (custom sweep)
Sweep Voltage Points: 7V, 1V, 3V, 8V, 2V
Current Compliance: 100mA
Source Delay: 100ms
Table 9-6 summarizes the basic remote command sequence for performing the custom
sweep described above.
