Userstring.add() - Keithley 2601B Reference Manual

Series 2600B System SourceMeter® Instrument Reference Manual
Details
The tspnet.write() function sends inputString to the remote instrument. It does not wait for command
completion on the remote instrument.
The Series 2600B sends inputString to the remote instrument exactly as indicated. The inputString must
contain any necessary new lines, termination, or other syntax elements needed to complete properly.
Because tspnet.write() does not process output from the remote instrument, do not send commands that
generate too much output without processing the output. This command can stop executing if there is too much
unprocessed output from previous commands.
Example
tspnet.write(myID, "runscript()\r\n")

tspnet.connect()
tspnet.read()

userstring.add()

This function adds a user-defined string to nonvolatile memory.
Type TSP-Link accessible
Function Yes
Usage
userstring.add(name, value)
name
value
Details
This function associates the string value with the string name and stores this key-value pair in nonvolatile
memory.
Use the userstring.get() function to retrieve the value associated with the specified name.
You can use the userstring functions to store custom, instrument-specific information in the instrument, such
as department number, asset number, or manufacturing plant location.
Example
userstring.add("assetnumber", "236")
userstring.add("product", "Widgets")
userstring.add("contact", "John Doe")
for name in userstring.catalog() do
print(name .. " = " ..
userstring.get(name))
end
