Model 2461 Interactive SourceMeter® Instrument Reference Manual Section 6: SCPI command reference2461-901-01 A/November 2015 6-29:CALCulate2::LIMit:FAIL?This command queries the results of a limit test.Type Affected by Where saved Default valueQuery only Not applicable Not applicable Not applicableUsage:CALCulate2::LIMit:FAIL? The measure function:• Current: CURRent[:DC]• Resistance: RESistance• Voltage: VOLTage[:DC]The digitize function:• Digitize current: DIGitize:CURRent• Digitize voltage: DIGitize:VOLTage Limit number: 1 or 2DetailsThis command queries the result of a limit test for the selected measurement function.The response message indicates if the limit test passed or how it failed (on the high or low limit).If autoclear is set to off, reading the results of a limit test does not clear the fail indication of the test.To clear a failure, send the clear command. To automatically clear the results, set auto clear on.If auto clear is set to on and you are making a series of measurements, the last measurement limitdetermines the fail indication for the limit. If auto clear is turned off, the results return a test fail if anyof one of the readings failed.To use this attribute, you must set the limit state to on.The results of the limit test for limit Y:• NONE: Test passed; the measurement is between the upper and lower limits• HIGH: Test failed; the measurement exceeded the upper limit• LOW: Test failed; the measurement exceeded the lower limit• BOTH: Test failed; the measurement exceeded both limits
