PGA309: Multi Cal DMM Script

Nam, Dino
Expert 6445 points

Part Number: PGA309

Dear team,

Currently, My customer use Multi Cal system with Agilent 34401A DMM to communicate with RS232 on the computer. But they want to change DMM band from Agilent to other band like Tektronixs. To use other DMM band, how can I and witch point have to change script?

I found Script Reads Voltage on Agilent 34401A with RS-232 Port on the Computer at Multi-Cal-PGA309 System user guide like below

<Question>

1. Is it possible to use other DMM band if change this point "write> MEAS:VOLT:DC? 10,0.00001"? If I change the other point, please let me know.

2. How about Script for current? I can not find current script.

Thank you.

    Hi Dino,
    depending on behavior of the other DMM, you may have to change other settings in the DMM script. I'd guess that as a starting point, you'd need to change the write>MEAS:VOLT:DC? 10,0.00001 to whatever the equivalent command is for the new DMM.

    For a current measurement script, I am not sure if there is a reference similar to the one you posted. That being said, there is an example current script for the 34401A in the Multi_CAL_PGA309/DMM_Scripts folder. The only major difference between the voltage and current scripts is that the current script does a write>MEAS:CURR:DC? 50E-3,0.1E-6 to trigger a current measurement instead of the MEAS:VOLT command for voltage.
