Tested IV curve python script that runs using MIDAS. Measured resistance consistant with resistor specification. elog:46/1

The resistance is attached to ch11, and we called the script (channels go from 0 to 24):
chnum=11 ; python3 iv_curve.py --no_steering --caen_chan $chnum --stop_v 3 --step_v 0.001 --filename ivcurve_`date +%s`_$chnum.txt 

Issues:

No readout of trip condiotion therefore python script overides power supply trip and attemps to bring back voltage to next value. Potentially dangerous. Script only terminates with the final voltage value. See attached plot elog:46/1

Script terminated with error message:
