To connect to a Keysight 34410A Multimeter using Qcodes, you can use the following Python script:
from qcodes.instrument_drivers.Keysight.Keysight_344XXA import Keysight_344XXA
# Create an instance of the Keysight_344XXA drivermultimeter = Keysight_344XXA('multimeter', 'TCPIP0::192.168.1.1::INSTR')
# Connect to the multimetermultimeter.connect()
# Perform measurements or set parameters using the multimeter object
# Disconnect from the multimetermultimeter.disconnect()This script imports the Keysight_344XXA driver from the qcodes.instrument_drivers.Keysight module. It then creates an instance of the driver, specifying a name for the instrument and the VISA resource address of the multimeter. The connect() method is called to establish a connection to the multimeter. You can then perform measurements or set parameters using the multimeter object. Finally, the disconnect() method is called to disconnect from the multimeter.
