cfGetVoltage
Syntax
int cfGetVoltage(CF_HANDLE server, float *voltage);
Description
Returns the idle state voltage setting set by cfSetVoltage. The idle state voltage is the value that
the cell voltage will be set to when the forming sequence is in the idle state and the output state is
enabled. The server argument can be either a handle to a group obtained by cfOpenGroup, or a
handle to all cells in the instrument if no groups are defined.
cfInitiate
Syntax
int cfInitiate(CF_HANDLE server);
Description
Initiates a cell forming sequence. A cell forming sequence does not start until it has been initiated
and then triggered. The server argument can be either a handle to a group obtained by
cfOpenGroup, or a handle to all cells in the instrument if no groups are defined. cfInitiate returns
an error if the trigger state is not in Idle or if the sequence is invalid.

cfMeasACResistance
Syntax
int cfMeasACResistance(CF_HANDLE server, int cell, float *reading);
Description
NOTE: Because this command may take several seconds to complete, you may need to temporarily
adjust the cfSetTimeout function to account for the increased execution time.
Returns the measured ac resistance for a particular cell or for all cells. The cell argument can be
an individual cell number from 1 to 256, or the constant CF_ALL_CELLS to request readings for
all cells. If CF_ALL_CELLS is given, the reading argument should point to an array of 256
floats that will receive the return values.
If the ac resistance measurement cannot be made, either because the output for a cell is in the
OFF state, the voltage sense is set to Local, or if there is insufficient current flowing to make the
measurement, the special value CF_NOT_A_NUMBER (9.91E37) is returned.
cfMeasCapacityAS
Syntax
int cfMeasCapacityAS(CF_HANDLE server, int cell, float *reading);
Description
Returns the accumulated capacity in ampere-seconds of a cell in its present step. The capacity is
reset to zero at the start of each step. If the cell is not in the forming state, the special value
CF_NOT_A_NUMBER is returned. The cell argument can be an individual cell number from 1 to
256, or the constant
CF_ALL_CELLS to request readings for all cells. If CF_ALL_CELLS is given,
the reading argument should point to an array of 256 floats that will receive the return values.
