Model DMM7510 7½ Digit Multimeter Application Manual
Section 4: Sampling temperature at a set time interval
Using TSP
The following TSP code is designed to be run from Keithley Instruments Test Script Builder (TSB).
TSB is a software tool that is available from tek.com/keithley. You can install and use TSB to write
code and develop scripts for TSP-enabled instruments. Information about how to use TSB is in the
online help for TSB and in the "Introduction to TSP operation" section of the Model DMM7510
Reference Manual.
To use other programming environments, you may need to make changes to the example TSP code.
By default, the DMM7510 uses the SCPI command set. You must select the TSP command set
before sending TSP commands to the instrument.
To enable TSP commands:
1. Press the MENU key.
2. Under System, select Settings.
3. Set the Command Set to TSP.
4. At the prompt to reboot, select Yes.
This sequence of TSP commands makes a series of temperature measurements. After the code
executes, the data is displayed in the Instrument Console of Test Script Builder.
Ensure that the TERMINALS switch is set to REAR.
Send the following commands for this example application:
-- Reset the instrument to the default settings.
reset()
-- Establish variables to make a measurement every 60 seconds 1440 times (24 hours).
MeasCount = 1440
MeasInterval = 60
-- Set to measure temperature.
dmm.measure.func = dmm.FUNC_TEMPERATURE
-- Configure to measure 4-wire RTD.
dmm.measure.transducer = dmm.TRANS_FOURRTD
-- Enable the detection of open leads.
dmm.measure.opendetector = dmm.ON
-- Select 4-wire RTD type to be a PT100 sensor.
dmm.measure.fourrtd = dmm.RTD_PT100
-- Set the number of power line cycles to 1.
dmm.measure.nplc = 1
-- Enable offset compensation for more accurate readings.
dmm.measure.offsetcompensation.enable = dmm.ON
-- Display the GRAPH swipe screen.
