Details on all common commands except those associated with the status model
are covered below. See
for information on using status commands.
*IDN? — identification query
Reads ID information
The identification string includes the manufacturer, model number, serial number,
and firmware revision levels and is sent in the following format:
Keithley Instruments Inc., Model nnnn, xxxxxxx, yyyyy
Where:
nnnn is the model number (Model 2601/2602/2611/2612).
xxxxxxx is the serial number.
yyyyy is the firmware revision level.
*OPC — operation complete
Sets OPC bit
*OPC? — operation complete query
Places a “1” in output queue
When *OPC is sent, the OPC bit in the Standard Event Register (see
)
will set when all overlapped commands complete. An ASCII “1” is also placed in
the Output Queue to be read by the *OPC? query when overlapped commands
complete.
*RST — reset
Return SourceMeter to defaults
When the *RST command is sent, the SourceMeter returns to the default
conditions (see
*TRG — trigger
Send remote trigger to SourceMeter
Use the *TRG command to issue a GPIB or RS-232 trigger to the SourceMeter. It
has the same effect as a group execute trigger (GET).
*TST? — self-test query
Return 0
This command always places a 0 in the Output Queue. It is included for common
command compatibility, but the Series 2600 does not actually perform a self-test.
