Keithley 2110 software

Remote control and data logging for the Keithley 2110 multimeter, on Windows, Linux and macOS - with the same panel BenchMesh uses for every multimeter.

Awaiting confirmation

Status

Very likely. Support for the Keithley 2110 was written from Keithley’s programming manual and follows the same engine as the bench-tested instruments, but nobody has confirmed it on a real 2110 yet. If you own one, connecting it once and reporting the result moves it to Community-confirmed.

Note: In COMPATIBLE mode SYST:IDNS can change the *IDN? reply; keep the default identification
