Hello Keysight!
I got a brand new U1732C Handheld LCR Meter. It has a built in IR communication interface, for which I also have the appropriate cable. When setting the cable to 9600 baud, I successfully could send "*IDN?" and got the reply "Keysight Technologies,U1732C,MY12345678,03.06".
However, even an extensive search did not reveal documentation how to perform measurements, settings, ...
Could you please provide the SCPI command reference?
Thanks
Johann Glaser
Hi Johann,
based on answer from HansDuo ( 2011-11-12 12:16) and some tests that I have done, this is result below.
Indentification of LCR meter
-> *IDN?
<- Keysight Technologies,U1733C,MY58020034,03.06
Set Frequency: 100, 120, 1k, 10k, 100k
-> FREQ 100 (example: set frequency of LCR meter at 100Hz)
-> FREQ 10k (example: set frequency of LCR meter at 10kHz)
Set range: RANG xxxxy, for x value: 2 to 2000 (valid range depend on frequency and function), and y for unit (p for pico, n for nano, u for micro, m for milli, k for kilo and M for mega)
-> RANG 20m (example: mode DCR, display like .0000 Ohms)
-> RANG 20m (example: mode L, display like 0.000 mH at 100Hz)
-> RANG 20m (example: mode C, display like 0.000 mF at 100Hz)
-> RANG 20p (example: mode C, display like 000.0 pF at 100Hz)
-> RANG 20p (example: mode C, display like 0.000 pF at 100kHz)
Set Functions: FUNC string, => L, R, C, Z, DCR or ESR (use FUNC command set LCR meter in AUTO range)
-> FUNC ESR (example: set LCR meter in ESR mode)
Set equivalent circuit mode: MODE string, PAL for parallel and SER for serial
-> MODE SER (example: set LCR meter in serial mode)
Configuration: CONF string, set configuration, RES, IMP, IND, CAP, ESR or DCR
Configuration: CONF?, return actual function, range and resolution values
-> CONF CAP (example: set LCR meter in Capacimeter mode)
-> CONF? (example: return value of configuration)
<- CAP +2.000000E-08,+1.000000E-12 (example: LCRmeter in capacitor mode, range 20nF, resolution 1pF )
Set second display: DISP2, D, Q or TH
-> DISP2 TH (example: set second display of LCR meter for angle readings in degrees)
Reading value: FETC? (return the value of primary display)
-> FETC?
<- +2.413487E-03 (example: L mode at 100 Hz, return 2.413mH)
Reading all avalaible values: FETC? ALL
-> FETC? ALL (example: L mode, frequency 100Hz)
<- Rs,+4.693675E-01,Ls,+2.434658E-03,Rp,+5.449214E+00,Lp,+2.668809E-03,Z,+1.602694E+00,TH,+7.289555E+01,F,+1.000000E+02,D,+3.077255E-01,Q,+3.249650E+00
return in this example
Rs= +4.693675E-01, equivalent serial resitor
Ls= +2.434658E-03, equivalent serial inductor
Rp= +5.449214E+00, equivalent parallele resistor
Lp= +2.668809E-03, equivalent parallele inductance
Z= +1.602694E+00, impedance
TH= +7.289555E+01, angle in degrees
F= +1.000000E+02, frequency of test
D= +3.077255E-01, dissipation factor
Q= +3.249650E+00, quality factor
Satus: STAT?, return a string like abcdefghijklmnopqrstu
-> STAT?
<- 0000P0P01010LL0SQ0A01 (example)
with this example:
a=0, 0/1 recording OFF/ON
b=0, 0/1 relative (NULL) mode OFF/ON
c=0, ?
d=0, Tolerance mode: 0=tolerance OFF, 1=tolerance mode ON, reference test, 2=1%, 3=5%, 4=10% and 5=20%
e=P, ?
f=0, 0/1, limit OFF/ON

h=0, 0/1, HOLD button OFF/ON
i=1, ?
j=0, ?
k=1, ?
l=0, 0/1, backlight OFF/ON
m=L, 0/1, no calibration activated / calibration in process

o=0, frequency, 0= 100Hz, 1=120Hz, 2=1kHz, 3=10kHz and 4=100kHz

t=0, ?
u=1, 0/1 range 0=manual/1=automatic

Hi Johann,
I found that in user manual: " you can only perform data logging operations in the Keysight GUI Data Logger application with the LCR meter connected via the USB- IR cable to the PC." It's not possible to control LCR meter, only read DATA.
I just bought a LCR meter U1733C, I found the link on Keysight site for GUI DATAlogger software, but impossible to download it...it's not working.
I asked to have some help about downloading software, but no answer from Keysight.
Regards
Yves
