[SENSe[<chan>]]:FUNCtion

Subsystem Syntax

The SENSe:FUNCtion commands select which of the input ports gets connected to a particular channel. SENSe1 selects the input for the sensor on channel 1 (ports 1 or 3), and SENSe2 selects the input for the sensor on channel 2 (ports 2 or 4).

[SENSe[<chan >]] :FUNCtion "<function >"

[SENSe[<chan>]]:FUNCtion

[SENSe[<chan>]]:FUNCtion "<function>" determines which input port will be connected to the specified sensing channel. Each sense channel has two input ports; one port is single ended and the other is differential. Odd numbered ports (1 and 3) connect to channel 1, and the even numbered ports (2 and 4) connect to channel 2.

Coupled Command: Yes. This command is coupled to SENSe:VOLTage:DC:RANGe, ARM:STARt:LEVel:NEGative, and ARM:STARt:LEVel:POSitive.

Function choices ending in 1 and 3 ("VOLTage:DC1" or "VOLTage:DC3") are the only choices for channel 1 (SENSe1:FUNCtion). Function choices ending in 2 and 4 ("VOLTage:DC2" or "VOLTage:DC4") are the only legal choices for channel 2 (SENSe2:FUNCtion). Specifying an illegal function choice on a sense channel will result in error -151, "Invalid string data".

Related Commands: SENSe:VOLTage:DC:RANGe, ARM:STARt:LEVel:NEGative, ARM:STARt:LEVel:POSitive
