Fluke RPM4 manual READRATEn, Period, READYCKn

RPM4™ OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL

READRATEn

Purpose	Read or set the specified or active Q-RPT read rate or auto read rate mode.
Command	“READRATEn period”
Query	“READRATEn?”
Classic	“READRATEn= period”
	“READRATEn”
Optional Suffix	“n”		The active Q-RPT is assumed if no suffix is given.
			‘1’	Specify the Hi Q-RPT if the Hi and Lo Q-RPTs are NOT OFF and the HL
				Q-RPT is not active.
				Specify the HL Q-RPT if the Hi and Lo Q-RPTs are OFF
			‘2’	Specify the Lo Q-RPT if the HL Q-RPT is not active and measurement
				mode is not differential.
			‘3’	Specify the HL Q-RPT if the HL Q-RPT is active.
Arguments	“period ":		Period to integrate the measurement over (ms). Can be from 200 ms to 20000
			ms. Set to ‘0’ to enable automatic read rate.
Remarks	The RPM4 can have the speed in which it integrates each measurement (“read rate”) automatically
	adjusted based on the rate, or it can manually set to a fixed period. Increasing the read rate increases
	the reply time for pressure and rate queries. In differential mode and when using the HL Q-RPT, the Lo
	Q-RPT read rate is always set to the same read rate as the Hi.
Example	Cmd sent:		“READRATE 1000”
(enhanced)	Query reply:		“1000”		(No reply if GPIB-488)
Example	Cmd sent:		“READRATE? 1000”
(enhanced)	Query reply:		“1000”
Example	Sent:		“READRATE=1000”
(classic)	Reply:		“1000”
Errors	ERR# 6:		The “period” argument is out of range.
	ERR#10:		The suffix ‘n’ is invalid

	3.5.7.2
READYCKn
Purpose	Read or set the Ready check flag.
Command	“READYCKn 1”
Query	“READYCKn?”
Classic	“READYCKn=1”
	“READYCKn”
Optional Suffix	“n”	The active Q-RPT is assumed if no suffix is given.
		‘1’	Specify the Hi Q-RPT if the Hi and Lo Q-RPTs are NOT OFF
			Specify the HL Q-RPT if the Hi and Lo Q-RPTs are OFF
		‘2’	Specify the Lo Q-RPT
		‘3’	Specify the HL Q-RPT if the HL Q-RPT is active
Remarks	The internal ready check flag is cleared whenever the specified or active Q-RPT reaches a
	Not Ready (NR) condition. The “READYCK” query returns the status of the flag. The flag is
	set by sending the “READYCK 1” program message while the Q-RPT is in a Ready condition.
	The “READYCK” program message query can then be used at a later time to determine
	whether a Not Ready condition has occurred since the ready check flag was set.
Example	Cmd sent:		“READYCK1 1”
(enhanced)	Query reply:		“1”	(no reply if GPIB-488)
Example	Cmd sent:		“READYCK1?”
(enhanced)	Query reply:		“1”
Example	Cmd sent:		“READYCK?”
(enhanced)	Query reply:		“1”	(if	Q-RPT condition has stayed Ready)
			“0” (if Q-RPT condition has NOT stayed Ready)
Example	Sent:		“READYCK=1”
(classic)	Query reply:		“READYCK=1”
Example	Sent:		“READYCK”
(classic)	Query reply:		“READYCK=1” (if Q-RPT condition has stayed Ready)
			“READYCK=0” (if Q-RPT condition has NOT stayed Ready)
Errors	ERR# 6:		Argument is not a ‘0’ or a ‘1’.
