Note on Syntax: Although the strain function is comprised of six separate SCPI
commands, the only difference between them is the bridge type they specify to the
strain EU conversion algorithm.
•
[SENSe:]FUNCtion:STRain:<bridge_type> [<range>,](@<ch_list>) links the
strain EU conversion with the channels specified by ch_list to measure the bridge
voltage. See "Linking Input Channels to EU Conversion" on page 3-59 for more
information.
bridge_type is not a parameter but is part of the command syntax. The following
table relates the command syntax to bridge type. See the user's manual for the
optional Strain SCP for bridge schematics and field wiring information.

ch_list channel list (string)
•
Strain measurements require the use of Bridge Completion Signal Conditioning
Plug-Ons.
•
Bridge Completion SCPs provide the strain measurement bridges and their
excitation voltage sources. ch_list specifies the voltage sensing channels that are
to measure the bridge outputs. Measuring channels on a Bridge Completion SCP
only returns that SCP's excitation source voltage.
