Abort Source/Measure Cycle - Keithley 6430 Instruction Manual

Abort source/measure cycle

:ABORt
Description
Program trigger model
:COUNt <n>
:ARM[:SEQuence[1]][LAYer[1]]:COUNt <n>
:TRIGger[:SEQuence[1]]:COUNt <n>
Parameters
NOTE The product of arm count and trigger count cannot exceed 2500.
Query
Description
NOTE
INFinite can be used only with ARM:COUNt, and FETCh?, READ?, MEAS?,
CALC1:DATA?, or CALC2:DATA? cannot be used with infinite arm count. Only
INIT will start measurements, and only interlock, over-temperature, SDC, DCL, or
ABORt should be used to stop the sweep.
When this action command is sent, the SourceMeter aborts operation and
returns to the idle state.
A faster way to return to idle is to use the DCL or SDC command.
With auto output-off enabled (:SOURce1:CLEar:AUTO ON), the output
will remain on if operation is terminated before the output has a chance to
automatically turn off.

This command is used to specify how many times an operation is performed
in the specified layer of the trigger model.
For example, assume the arm count is set to 2 and the trigger counter is set
to 10, the SourceMeter is configured to perform 10 source-measure opera-
tions twice for a total of 20 source-measure operations.
The product of the arm count and trigger count cannot exceed 2500. If, for
example, the arm count is 2, then the maximum trigger count is 1250.
ARM:COUNt INFinite can be used for repetitive source waveforms or for
long tests where only the last reading is important. For example, the limits
could be used to drive the interlock to abort a test when some condition is
met. DATA? would then give the answer to the test.
