This will set me on track to create an efficiency testbed. I can retrieve the power in from my power supply and power out with the DMM6500.

Precision is dependent on a fairly temp-stable low resistance shunt. Actual resistance is not critical. I can determine the value with the DMM.

The shunt I use at the moment isn't that stable [View:/resized-image/__size/16x16/__key/commentfiles/f7d226abd59f475c9d224a79e3f0ec07-74e9c2d6-824a-4d59-84f8-0d2253cf377b/contentimage_5F00_1.png:16:16] :

Nice update.

I was curious as to how much remote control you could achieve with this software, so I will be following your updates very carefully.

Hello Jan,

Thanks.

Nice start - I've got one of these and it's rather nice. I still think the Keysight 34465A is nicer to use from the front panel but the Keithley has lot's more stuff built in for a lot less money.

You didn't mention that TSP is a Lua interpreter. This is really nice because it's a real language with lots of books and examples available, and capable of supporting serious programming.

I first experienced this with the DMM7510 and it offers a lot of potential.

I'd never tried the Test Script Builder but having seen your review I will now.
