Relay Cycle Count
Usage:
• L4421A 40- Channel Armature Multiplexer
• L4433A Dual/Quad 4x8 Reed Matrix
• L4437A General Purpose Switch
• L4445A Microwave Switch/Attenuator
The number of relay cycles can be determined to help you predict relay
end- of- life. The instrument counts the cycles on each relay and stores
the total count in non- volatile memory.
• In addition to the channel relays, you can also query the count on the
Analog Bus relays and bank relays.
• You can reset the cycle count on any of the channel relays, Analog
Bus relays, or bank relays but the instrument must be unsecured. See
Chapter 11 for information on unsecuring the instrument.
The following command is used to read the cycle count on the specified
instrument channel(s):
DIAG:RELAY:CYCLES? (@<ch_list>)
The following command is used to reset the cycle count on the specified
instrument channel(s):
DIAG:RELAY:CYCLES:CLEAR (@<ch_list>)
