I-V measurement

[NIquist]

You can use the NI IDN to download drivers for Keithley 2600:  http://www.ni.com/downloads/instrument-drivers/

Or do it right from LabVIEW:  Tools > Instrumentation > Find Instrument Drivers.  It will even search for drivers of devices that are plugged in to your PC automatically.

Hi, I am currently sending voltage pulse and recording I vs Time using 2611 and labview. Attaching the VI. Earlier more than a year back I was using PXI 6221 and then I tried to send pulse using DAQ  and amplify before feeding to device, and faced time problem with finally generated signal. Now I want to source current pulse from 2611. It can allow the required range of current I have mentioned in my earlier post. Not sure which command you are talking about for pulse.

As GerdW strongly emphasized, you should read the manual.  I downloaded it and found, in a matter of minutes, the following commands.

Page 7-33 "ConfigPulseIMeasureV()"  this command accepts a variety of parameters for the puse on/off duration and current output level.  It evaluates whether or not the desired pulse is possible for the equipment.  An example of the code shows a pulse designed with 1 ms on followed by 80 ms off for an output of 5 Amps.  If the pulse train is acheivable, it assigns a tag number for the pulse train.

to initiate a pulse train, you use the command "InitiatePulseTest(tag)" , page 7-104, to initiate the configured pulse train measurements.

Download the reference manual here http://www.keithley.com/products/dcac/currentvoltage/gpmp/?path=2611A/Documents#5 and look up the rest of the commands you need to configure your SMU routine.

Hello,

It was not a spam.Could you upload the .Vi file for keithley 2611A for measuring  swep Voltage and current..!

Your asking for the end result of a forum post asking for help with the IV measurement (so their VI isn't fully operational yet).  I suggest you at least wait until the original poster's problem is resolved, or download the keithley drivers and modify as you need them.

The original poster chose to attach images of the main and subVI instead of code. The original poster has not logged onto the forums for over 2 years so it is unlikely you will be able to get the actual code. The images are a starting point if you want to write your VI. All of the functions are easy to discern but some of the commands are obscured. Your other option is to start fresh with the driver that others have pointed out.

http://www.keithley.com/base_download?dassetid=51950

After downloading tried to run but i get error the error is

Hi yogesh,

that's only the half part of the error message as it only tells the place the error occured...

Which error number?

Which inputs are used?

Hello,

Actually,I am trying to interface with Keithley 2611A using Labview and i downloaded the driver file which i have mentioned in the prevoius message.

When Run those files i get error and the error number is -1073807346

Let me know is there any additional files for interfacing keithley device in Labview...
