Details
This command makes an impedance measurement on each step of a voltage or frequency sweep.
The measured values for a sweep are returned in arrays. The measured readings are posted to the
Clarius Analyze sheet and graph after the test has finished.
Before calling
smeasz
, use the
forcev
command to set the DC bias level, the
setfreq
command
to set the AC drive frequency and the
setlevel
command to set the AC drive voltage.
Measurement model parameter values

You can also use the
smeaszRT
command to measure and return sweep impedance
measurements. It posts the measured readings to Clarius in real time.
To return a single impedance measurement, use
measz
.
Example
(on page 13-194) 2 through 5 use the
smeas
command for impedance
measurements.
