Tsplink.initialize() - Keithley DMM7510 Reference Manual

Model DMM7510 7½ Digit Graphical Sampling Multimeter Reference Manual

tsplink.initialize()

This function initializes all instruments and enclosures in the TSP-Link system.
Type TSP-Link accessible
Function No
Usage
nodesFound = tsplink.initialize()
tsplink.initialize()
tsplink.initialize(expectedNodes)
nodesFound
expectedNodes
Details
This function regenerates the system configuration information regarding the nodes connected to the
TSP-Link system. You must initialize the system after making configuration changes. You need to
initialize the system after you:
•
Turn off power or reboot any instrument in the system
•
Change node numbers on any instrument in the system
•
Rearrange or disconnect the TSP-Link cable connections between instruments
If the only node on the TSP-Link network is the one running the command and expectedNodes is
not provided, this function generates an error event. If you set expectedNodes to 1, the node is
initialized.
If you include expectedNodes, if nodesFound is less than expectedNodes, an error event is
generated.
Example
nodesFound = tsplink.initialize(2)
print("Nodes found = " .. nodesFound)

Where saved Default value
Perform a TSP-Link initialization and indicate how many
nodes are found.
Example output if two nodes are found:
Nodes found = 2
Example output if fewer nodes are found and if
localnode.showevents = 7:
1219, TSP-Link found fewer nodes than
expected
Nodes found = 1
