In This Manual

The Test Instruction Set (TIS) is a set of powerful functions that facilitate

measurement programming for the Agilent E5270, and supports the following

applications:

•DC current/voltage output

•High speed spot measurement

•Multi channel spot measurement

•Pulsed spot measurement

•Staircase sweep measurement

•Pulsed sweep measurement

•Staircase sweep with pulsed bias measurement

•Breakdown voltage measurement

•Leakage current measurement

The Agilent E5270 TIS library is available for the C language users. Measurement

programs that include TIS functions are easier to maintain than programs written

solely in the C language.

This manual describes the installation and reference information of the Agilent

E5270 TIS, and consists of the following chapters:

•“Starting TIS Programming”

Describes the intallation information of the Agilent E5270 TIS library, and

general information for programming.

•“TIS Function Reference”

Describes the reference information of the Agilent E5270 TIS functions.

I/O library.

•GPIB (IEEE 488) interface and 32-bit VISA I/O library

Agilent GPIB interface with Agilent IO Libraries or equivalent.

•Agilent E5270 VXIplug&play driver

The driver is required to use the Agilent E5270 TIS library. The Agilent E5270

TIS library and VXIplug&play driver are stored in the Software CD-ROM

furnished with the Agilent E5270.

•Computer and peripherals

Required specifications depend on the application development environment.

See manual of the application development environment. The CD-ROM drive is

required to install the VXIplug&play driver and TIS library.

•Minimum disk space

4 MB (2 MB for the Agilent TIS library and 2 MB for VXIplug&play driver)

Starting TIS Programming

Installation

Installing TIS Library

The installation flow is shown below. If you have already installed the GPIB (IEEE

488) interface, VISA I/O library, and programming software (Microsoft C++ or

Borland C++Builder) on your computer, skip steps 1 through 4.

1. Install the GPIB interface to your PC.

See manual of the GPIB interface. Note the model number of the GPIB

interface, as you may need it to configure the interface (in step 3).

2. Install VISA I/O library.

Follow the setup program instructions.

3. Configure and check the GPIB interface.

See manual of the VISA I/O library.

4. Install the programming software.

Follow the setup program instructions.

5. Install the Agilent E5270 VXIplug&play driver.

a. Insert the Agilent E5270 Series Software CD-ROM to the CD-ROM drive

connected to your computer.

b. Execute \Pnp\E5270.exe on the CD-ROM.

The setup program installs the driver. See Table 1-1 for the installed files. The

TIS library will refer the driver to control the Agilent E5270.

6. Install the Agilent E5270 TIS library.

a. Insert the Agilent E5270 Series Software CD-ROM to the CD-ROM drive

connected to your computer.

b. Create a folder (e.g. C:\Agilent\E5270) on your computer.

c. Copy the Tis subdirectory on the Software CD-ROM to the created folder.

See Table 1-2 for the installed files.
