Contact check programming example
The command sequence for a typical contact measurement is shown below. These commands set
the contact check speed to fast and the threshold to 10
Ω
. A contact check measurement against
the threshold is then made. If it fails, a more accurate contact check measurement is made, and
the test is aborted. Otherwise, the output is turned on, and the test continues.
smua.reset()
- Restore defaults.
smua.contact.speed = smua.CONTACT_FAST
- Set speed to fast.
smua.contact.threshold = 10
- Set threshold to 10
Ω
.
if (not smua.contact.check()) then
--One/both contact resistances are not
--below the programmed threshold.
smua.contact.speed = smua.CONTACT_SLOW
rhi, rlo = smua.contact.r()
print(rhi, rlo)
exit()
end

Check contacts against threshold.
Set speed to slow.
Get resistance readings.
Return contact resistances to the host.
Terminate execution.
smua.source.output = smua.OUTPUT_ON
- Turn on output and continue.
