Example: Querying channels for open or close state

The following command

returns a 1 (true) or 0 (false) state of channel 204 for a module in slot 3.

ROUTe:CLOSe (@3204)

ROUTe:CLOSe? (@3204) !Returns a 1

ROUTe:OPEN? (@3204) !Returns a 0

Configuring a Module

Example: Configuring the 34933A module for 2-wire or 1-wire mode

The

following command configures a matrix module in slot 4 for 1- wire
measurements. Because you can configure only the 34933A (and the 34923A
and 34925A MUX modules) for either 2- wire or 1- wire mode, an error is
generated if you send this command to a slot that does not contain one of
those three modules. If you are using terminal blocks with the 34933A
module, be sure to use the corresponding 2- wire or 1- wire terminal block.

SYSTem:MODule:WIRE:MODE WIRE1,4

Example: Querying the system for module Identify

The following command

returns the identity of the module installed in slot 7.

SYSTem:CTYPe? 7

Reading Cycle Count and Resetting Modules to Power-On State

Example: Reading the cycle count for a relay

The following command returns

the cycle count on channels 304 and 308 for a matrix module in slot 3.

DIAGnostic:RELay:CYCLes? (@3304,3308)

Example: Resetting module(s) to power-on state

The following command

resets a module in slot 4 to its power- on state.

SYSTem:CPON 4

When using a command to configure the system, the new
configuration does not take effect until you cycle power on the
34980A.

N O T E

For the 34933A matrix module, the query response may include a
suffix to indicate a 1-wire configuration. For example, the response
for the 34933A will be either "34933A" (differential mode) or
"34933A-1W" (single-ended mode).
