Additional Clarius
+
applications
Two of the Clarius
+
applications support Clarius:
•
The
Keithley User Library Tool (KULT)
(on page 8-1) allows you to create libraries of test
modules using the C programming language. These test modules are executed by Clarius.
•
The
Keithley Configuration Utility (KCon)
(on page 7-1) manages the configuration and
interconnections between all of the test system components that are controlled by Clarius.
Another Clarius
+
software tool, the
Keithley External Control Interface (KXCI)
(on page 9-1), allows
the 4200A-SCS to be controlled remotely by an external GPIB controller.
You cannot run KXCI and Clarius simultaneously.
The Keithley Pulse tool (KPulse) controls the optional pulse cards. A pulse card is a dual-channel
pulse card that is integrated inside the 4200A-SCS mainframe.
Although KPulse can be launched at the same time as Clarius, KPulse and Clarius cannot
communicate with hardware simultaneously.
Set up a simple project
To start testing, you can start with a new project, or use an existing project. A project consists of
items such as devices and tests.
The order of operations of a test is determined by the order and selection of items in the project tree.
The following topics describe how to set up a run a simple project, using an existing project from the
Project Library.
