Hi,
I'm using 2 Keithley 2400 in a measurement setup. The outputs of the devices are being switched on and off a lot of times. Therefore, they are always 'beeping".
How do I programmatically turn of those beeps?

What does the programmer's manual say?

STATe <b>
:SYSTem:BEEPer:STATe <b> Enable or disable beeper
Parameters <b> = 1 or ON Enable beeper
0 or OFF Disable beeper
Query :STATe? Query state of beeper
Description This command is used to enable or disable the beeper. When enabled, a
short beep is provided to signal that a front panel key has been pressed.
This only works for the front panel keys, but not for the output enabled beep?

Here is the exact command I used to turn off that very annoying beep for the Keithley 2425. You will need to send this command after every reset if you want it to stay off.
:SYST:BEEP:STAT OFF

According to the User Manual of the 2400, the command which crossrulz recommends should also work with the 2400
Model 2400 Series SourceMeter User's Manual - Keithley2400Manual.pdf

It had better. They are in the same series after all.

Look into the SYSTem subsystem section for the 2400 manual (Table 18-9). The default setting for the SMU is to power-up in RESET mode which turns the Beeper back (ON). This can be changed to any of the other
:SYST:POS <name>
options as well that will allow you to set the Beep (OFF) and keep it off through power cycles.
