Example use¶
Depending on your type of connection you have to can either use the RS232 connection parameter or the GPIB connection parameter. Examples:
**--driver=scpi-dmm:conn=/dev/ttyUSB0**
or
**--driver=scpi-dmm:conn=libgpib/hp34401a**
Check the capabilities of the meter's driver, and current state of settings:
$ **sigrok-cli -d scpi-dmm:conn=/dev/ttyUSB0 --show**
Get or set the meter's current function:
$ **sigrok-cli -d scpi-dmm:conn=/dev/ttyUSB0 --get measured_quantity**
$ **sigrok-cli -d scpi-dmm:conn=/dev/ttyUSB0 -c measured_quantity=voltage/dc --set**
Acquire measurement data, in the current mode or in another specified mode:
$ **sigrok-cli -d scpi-dmm:conn=/dev/ttyUSB0 --continuous**
$ **sigrok-cli -d scpi-dmm:conn=/dev/ttyUSB0 --time 10s**
$ **sigrok-cli -d scpi-dmm:conn=/dev/ttyUSB0 --samples 10 -c measured_quantity=current/dc**
