Select The Measurement Function And Range - Keysight N6705C Operating And Service Manual

4 Using the Measurement Functions
Selecting the measurement functions and ranges.
l
Specifying the measurement integration period.
l
Selecting the trigger source.
l
Triggering the data logger.
l
Retrieving the data log measurement.
l
The external data logger function cannot be programmed from the front panel. When an external data
log measurement is initiated on an output channel, the front panel changes to Meter View. Any
channel that is performing an external data log measurement displays a message to this effect.
Switching to Scope or Data Logger view will terminate the external data log measurement

Select the Measurement Function and Range

The following commands select a measurement function. To enable voltage measurements and
min/max measurements on channel 1:
SENS:ELOG:FUNC:VOLT ON,(@1)
SENS:ELOG:FUNC:VOLT:MINM ON,(@1)
To enable current measurements and min/max measurements on channel 1:
SENS:ELOG:FUNC:CURR ON,(@1)
SENS:ELOG:FUNC:CURR:MINM ON,(@1)
The following commands select the range. To select the 5 V voltage range on channel 1:
SENS:ELOG:VOLT:RANG 5,(@1)
To set the 1 A current range on channel 1:
SENS:ELOG:CURR:RANG 1,(@1)
In order to log both voltage and current on an output channel, that channel must have simultaneous
measurement capability (see
measurement capability cannot externally log both voltage and current. There is no interleaved
voltage/current mode as there is with the instrument's internal data logger
Seamless Measurements
For Models N6781A, N6782A, N6785A, and N6786A, you can select seamless voltage and current
autoranging, which results in a wide dynamic range with no data lost across ranges. Seamless ranging
does not include the 10 μA range, which must be selected manually.
To enable seamless elog autoranging on channel 1:
SENS:ELOG:VOLT:RANG:AUTO ON,(@1)
SENS:ELOG:CURR:RANG:AUTO ON,(@1)
