284 HP E1419 Command Reference
[SENSe:]REFerence:TEMPerature <degrees_c> stores a fixed reference junction
temperature in the Reference Temperature Register. Use when the thermocouple
reference junction is kept at a controlled temperature.
This reference temperature is used to compensate all subsequent thermocouple
measurements until the register is overwritten by another SENSE:REF:TEMP value
or by scanning a channel linked with the SENSE:REFERENCE command. If used,
SENS:REF:TEMP must be executed before scanning any thermocouple channels.
Parameter Parameter
Name Type
degrees_c numeric (float32)
•
This command is used to specify to the HP E1419 the temperature of a controlled
temperature thermocouple reference junction.
•
When Accepted: Not while INITiated

SENSE:REF:TEMP 40
[SENSe:]STRain:EXCitation <excite_v>,(@<ch_list>) specifies the excitation
voltage value to be used to convert strain bridge readings for the channels specified
by <ch_list>. This command does not control the output voltage of any source.
Parameter Parameter
Name Type
excite_v numeric (flt32)
ch_list channel list (string)
•
<ch_list> must specify the channel used to sense the bridge voltage, not the
channel position on a Bridge Completion SCP.
