Description

Specifies whether a channel is a source channel. If you attempt to connect two channels that are either sources or have their own connections to sources, the path creation operation returns an error. The term source can be from either the instrument or the UUT perspective.

The intention of this attribute is to prevent channel connections that may cause damage to the channels, devices, or system. GROUND can be considered a source in some circumstances.
