Keithley 2010 Scan and Read Channels

Hi,

 

I am trying to use the Keithley 2010 to scan and read 10 external channels over GPIB. I downloaded the instrument driver for the 2010, but I am confused on how to measure different functions for some of the channels. The examples in the driver only have VI's that measure the same function for each channel.  I need to measure voltage, temperature with RTD, and temperature with TC.

 

If anyone knows where I can find an example for multi function scanning, that would be great.

changing a channel involves changing switches and that is a slow operation. Almost all operations except long integration times are faster.

So simply write a for loop for each channel with the measurement you want to do on that channel, or all channels.
