DIGITS_DMM7510

Download Flojoy Studio to try this app
Changes the number of digits for measurements for the DMM7510. Less digits is faster (but less accurate). Requires a CONNECT_DMM7510 block to create the connection. Params: connection : VisaConnection The VISA address (requires the CONNECTION_DMM7510 block). digits : select, default=7.5, Number of digits for the DMM measurements? Returns: out : String Measurement settings

In this example, a DC voltage measurement was extracted from a Keithley DMM7510.

First the necessary blocks were added:

  • CONNECT_DMM7510
  • RESET_DMM7510
  • FUNCTION_DMM7510
  • DIGITS_DMM7510
  • MEASUREMENT_PARAMS_DMM7510
  • MEASUREMENT_FILTER_DMM7510
  • READ_DMM7510
  • BIG_NUMBER

The instrument address was set for each DMM7510 block. The FUNCTION_DMM7510 block was changed in order to extract the correct measurement. The parameters in DIGITS_DMM7510, MEASUREMENT_PARAMS_DMM7510, and MEASUREMENT_FILTER_DMM7510 blocks were changed as necessary. The READ_DMM7510 block was connected to the BIG_NUMBER block in order to view the reading.

The blocks were connected as shown and the app was run.
