6812B AC Source - Voltage Array Measurement

Hello,

I'm trying to measure voltage arrays for a 6812B power source using the command MEAS:ARR:VOLT?

When I send this command followed by a read array 4096, it only seems to work once then it is stopped by an error. It always works after my VEE program has been re-started, but I can't seem to get it to work on a cycle. I would like to display the array values every minute if possible.

Does anyone know how to use this command to measure the voltage array on a specified time cycle?

Thanks,
Greg

Hi Greg,

What do you have the measurement interval and the points offset set to? Can you give me details of the error?

Thanks.

Hi Matt,

Thanks for the reply. The error is "I/O error or timeout occurred with GPIB interface at 7"

There is no error with the MEAS command, but with the read array command. The Offset Points is set to 0 and the interval is set to 25.05us.

Hey Greg,

Do you get any errors on the instrument? You can tell that you have this by the "Err" light on the front panel.

Are you sending a MEAS:ARR? or a FETC:ARR? command?

If you want, you can send your VEE program to spd_support@agilent.com and we can take a look at it.

Please be aware that Agilent will be closed from 12/23 to 1/3 and no one will be checking the forums.

Thanks.
