Tsp-Net Compared To Tsp-Link To Communicate With Tsp-Enabled Devices - Keithley 2600B Reference Manual

Series 2600B System SourceMeter® Instrument Reference Manual
TSP-Net compared to TSP-Link to communicate with TSP-enabled
devices
The TSP-Link
communication occurs between the Series 2600B and another TSP-enabled instrument.
One of the advantages of using the TSP-Link network interface is that TSP-Link connections have
three synchronization lines that are available to each device on the TSP-Link network. You can use
any one of the synchronization lines to perform hardware triggering between devices on the TSP-Link
network. Refer to
However, if the distance between the Series 2600B and the TSP-enabled device is longer than
15 feet, use TSP-Net commands.
TSP-Net instrument commands: General device control
The following instrument commands provide general device control:
tspnet.clear()
tspnet.connect()
tspnet.disconnect()
tspnet.execute()
tspnet.idn()
tspnet.read()
tspnet.readavailable()
tspnet.reset()
tspnet.termination()
tspnet.timeout
tspnet.write()
TSP-Net instrument commands: TSP-enabled device control
The following instrument commands provide TSP-enabled device control:
tspnet.tsp.abort()
tspnet.tsp.abortonconnect
tspnet.tsp.rbtablecopy()
tspnet.tsp.runscript()
