The purpose of the chapter is to provide example programs that show you
how to operate the multimeter. With minor modifications, these programs
can also be used for many of your applications.
The example programs are shown in the Hewlett-Packard BASIC language
and assume the multimeter is controlled from an HP 9000 Series 200/300
computer over the HP-IB. When using HP BASIC, a command is sent to
the multimeter with the
OUTPUT 70903;"MEAS:VOLT:DC? (@100)"
The destination specified (70903) is the interface select code of the
computer (7), plus the HP-IB addresses of the HP 75000 Series B
mainframe or Series C command module (09), and the multimeter (03).
The multimeter command is enclosed between quotation marks. Use
to enter data from the multimeter is entered into the computer:
