Set up TSP nodes on the DMM7510 and Model 3706A-S

Before executing the TSP code, you must set up the nodes on the instruments and configure the
TSP-Link network.
To set up TSP-Link on the DMM7510:
1. Press the MENU key.
2. Under System, select Communication.
3. Select the TSP-Link tab.
4. Set the Node to 2.
5. Select Initialize.
To set up TSP-Link on the 3706A-S:
1. Press the MENU key.
2. Use the navigation control to select TSPLINK.
3. Use the navigation control to select NODE.
4. Use the navigation control to enter 1.
5. Press the ENTER key.
6. Press the EXIT key as many time as needed return to the main display.
The communication from the computer is made directly to the DMM7510 in the following TSP code.
This makes the DMM7510 the master in this TSP-Link network, with the 3706A-S as the subordinate.
You can change the master to be the 3706A-S. However, you must modify the code
tsplink.initialize() and change it to tsplink.reset().
The master node does not require the node[x]. prefix. If you need to improve program execution
speed, remove all the master node prefixes in the TSP code in the following example.

Using SCPI

This example cannot be replicated in SCPI code because TSP-Link events and commands are only
available through the TSP command language.
However, you can use other instrument trigger interfaces, such as digital I/O or external trigger I/O, to
replace TSP-Link and achieve similar operation.
