Fluke 1529 8.4.4 Probe Commands

ROUT:SCAN:MODE?MIN

0

If 0 is returned,the scan mode is simultaneous. If a 1 is returned the scan mode

is scan. Specifying the MIN parameter returns a valueof 0. Specifying the

MAX parameter returns a valueof 1 . Specifying the DEF parameter returns a

value of 1.

8.4.3.8 ROUTe:SCAN:MODE <num>|MIN|MAX|DEF

Sets the scan mode setting.

ROUT:SCAN:MODE1

The <num> specifiesthe scan mode (1 for scan, 0 for simultaneous). Spec-

ifying the MIN, MAX, or DEF parameter sets the mode to the minimum, maxi-

mum, or default,respectively. The *RST command sets scan mode to scan.

8.4.4 Probe Commands

The probe commands are used for querying, setting, and copyingthe probe

conversiontype, conversion parameters, and serial number and for testing the

temperatureconversion for a channel. The probe commands for copying and

setting parameters are password protected.

8.4.4.1 CALCulate<chn>:CONVert:CATalog?

Returns a list of conversiontypes available for the specified channel.

CALC2:CONV:CAT?

“RES”,“ITS”,”ITS5”,”PT”,”CVD”,”TRES”,”TTEM”,”YSI”

The CALCulatesuffix, <chn>, specifies the channel (1 to 4) or memory chan-

nel (5 to14). Each item in the response list is enclosed in double quotes and

separated from other itemsby a comma. See Table 7 on page 124, for the avail-

able conversiontypes.

8.4.4.2 CALCulate<chn>:CONVert:COPY <dest chn>|ALL

Copiesthe conversion type, sub-ranges (ITS-90), serial number, and character-

izationcoefficients from one channel to another.

CALC2:CONV:COPY8

The CALCulatesuffix <chn> specifies the source channel (1 to 4). The <dest

chn> parameterspecifies the destination channel (1 to 4). When the copy is

performed, the source channel parameters are not affected.If the destination

channel typeis different from the source channel type, the error -294, "Incom-

patible type" is generated. Specifying the ALL parameter copies the source

channel parameters to all compatible channels. The exampleabove copies the

parametersfrom channel 2 to memory channel PMEM3.
