I use the PCI-GPIB card to control the Keithley switch system and the multimeter to test the resistance.
My switch system is munually set to either Pole 2 or Pole 4. When the system is Pole 2, I may use the IBWRT function to send command ":conf:slot1:pole 4" to Switch, the instrument shows "error 510" and all the instrution following that will be invalid. But IBWRT won't report any error until you read the data.
Is there any way to avoid this kind of mistake?
