Channel.setlabelcolumn() - Keithley 708B Reference Manual

Models 707B and 708B Switching Matrix Reference Manual
Details
This command sets the label of the channel specified in channelList to the value specified in the label
parameter.
The label parameter must be unique. In addition, it cannot be the same as the name of a channel pattern, row
label, or column label.
To clear the label, set label to an empty string ("") or to a string with a space as the first character.
After defining a label, you can use it to specify the channel instead of using the channel specifier.
An error is generated if:
•
The card in the channel slot does not support a label setting
•
The label contains a space. However, if the first character is a space, the label is cleared
•
The label is already used to represent a channel pattern
The label does not persist through a power cycle.
Example 1
channel.setlabel("1A01", "start")
channel.close("start")
print(channel.getclose("allslots"))
Example 2
channel.setlabel("1A01", "")
Example 3
channel.setlabel("1A01", " ")
