This command (like the other fail commands) does not clear the fail indication for LIMIT 1 or
LIMIT 2.
PRINT #1, "output 16; :calc3:clim:fail?" ' Query composite results of tests
PRINT #1, "enter 16" ' Get response message from 2002
:BSTRobe:STATe <b>
:CALCulate3:BSTRobe:STATe <b> Control binning strobe
<b> = 1 or ON Enable binning strobe
0 or OFF Disable binning strobe
:STATe? Query state of binning strobe
This command is used to enable or disable the strobe for the binning operation. When enabled,
digital output line #4 is used for the binning strobe pulse. After the appropriate digital pattern is
placed on the other three lines of the output port, the >10µsec strobe pulse is asserted on line
#4. The strobe is used to “inform” your external binning circuit that the output port (lines 1, 2
and 3) is ready to be read.
PRINT #1, "output 16; :calc3:bstr:stat on; stat?" ' Enable strobe and query
PRINT #1, "enter 16" ' Get response message from
2002
:IMMediate
:CALCulate3:IMMediate Perform CALC 3
When you change the configuration of the limit test, the next reading is evaluated according to
that new test configuration. If the instrument is not in a continuous measurement mode (e.g.,
waiting for a manual trigger), the test will not be performed until the next reading conversion
occurs.
This action command allows you to re-process the current input data to test new limits. For
example, assume the instrument is in a non-continuous measurement mode and requires a man-
ual trigger to cause the next reading conversion. Changing the test limits will not affect the last
test result. However, sending the :IMMediate command reprocesses the data and evaluates the
reading according to the new test limits. Note that sending the :IMMediate command does not
initiate a reading conversion.
PRINT #1, "output 16; :trig:sour bus" ' Place 2002 in one-shot mode
SLEEP 3 ' Wait three seconds
PRINT #1, "output 16; :calc3:imm" ' Re-perform limit test
