Hello,
I'm using the Agilent 34970A with module 34901A using the hardware Alarm
signals from the external 'RS232' connector to directly control some
hardware.
When using MEAS, to measure 4 temperature sensors, this command will use the
scanlist scan which will clear the Alarm signals.
To avoid clearing Alarm signals I thought bypassing the scanlist scan by
MONITORING the sensors one by one and then reading the monitor values.
Somewhat cryptic:
"ROUT:MON:STAT ON"
'---read-sensor-1---
"ROUT:SCAN (@101)"
"ROUT:MON (@101)"
"ROUT:MON
ATA?"
ShowMonitoredValue(@101)
'---read-sensor-2---
"ROUT:SCAN (@102)"
"ROUT:MON (@102)"
"ROUT:MONATA?"
ShowMonitoredValue(@102)
etc.
Now EACH single measurement takes about one second.
Is there a way to speed up the measurement time?
As when using a scanlist, measurement of ALL 4 sensors is executed within
one second.
Regards,
Henk
