This example connects channel 13 to channel 01 of an RF multiplexer in
To connect channel 13 to channel 01, execute:
CLOS (@101,113) |
|
|
|
|
|
| ! Connect channel 01 to channel 13. | ||||||||
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| 1 is the card number and 01, 13 | |||||||
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| are channel numbers. | |||||||

Channels
Comments
To open the channels, use OPEN (@101,113).
Query Channel States. Use CLOSe? <channel_list> or
OPEN? <channel_list> to query the channel states (open/closed). CLOSe? returns a 1 for channels closed, 0 for channels open. OPEN? returns a 0 for channels closed, 1 for channels open. (Commands do not account for relay hardware failures.)
Channel Closure Order. CLOSe <channel_list> can be used to close multiple channels (one at a time). However, the sequence in which multiple channels are closed with a single command is not guaranteed.
