Status Code
After measurement is performed, the Agilent B1500 returns a status code to notify 
you if the measurement has been completed successfully. The status code will be 
returned with the measurement data by the following functions that perform 
measurement. Available status values are listed in Table 2-8.
• “agb1500_spotCmuMeas”
• “agb1500_spotMeas”
• “agb1500_measureM”
• “agb1500_measureP”
• “agb1500_sampleIv”
• “agb1500_sweepCv”
• “agb1500_sweepIv”
• “agb1500_sweepMiv”
• “agb1500_msweepIv”
• “agb1500_msweepMiv”
• “agb1500_sweepPiv”
• “agb1500_sweepPbias”
• “agb1500_measureBdv”
• “agb1500_measureIleak”
• “agb1500_readData”
NOTE If multiple status conditions were found
Sum of the status values will be returned. For example, if an A/D converter 
overflow occurred, and an SMU was oscillating during the measurements, the 
returned value is 3 (=1+2).
