2.0 Enable/Disable BENCH iLS Remote Sense

You can enable or disable the BENCH iLS Remote Sense capability and set the lead

resistance with the following SCPI commands.

RSENSE

RSENSE?

RSENSE:RESistance

RSENSE:RESistance?

2.1 Calculate the Lead Resistance

In addition, you 181,"Resistance too large" can command BENCH iLS to calculate the lead

resistance by executing the following sequence:

1) Short leads which connect to the load at the load.

2) Execute the command to enable Remote Sense

RSENse ON

3) Execute the command to calculate lead resistance.

RSENse:RESistance:CALCulate <current> Initiates calculation

The <current> value is the current, in amperes, at which the lead resistance is to

be calculated and will normally be toward the high end of your application.

If the specified current is greater than the maximum allowed for the BENCH iLS

model you are using, you will trigger the error: -222,"Data out of range".

4) Execute the command to query the remote sense calculation state.

RSENse:RESistance:CALCulate?

If the calculation is still taking place, BENCH iLS will report: CALCULATING

When the calculation is complete, BENCH iLS will report: COMPLETE

If the calculated resistance is too large for practical application of remote sensing,

BENCH iLS will return the error: 181,"Resistance too large".
