Remote and Automatic Control
IEEE Std 488
The 3900 may be operated remotely via an interface conforming to IEEE Std 488.1-1987. This
standard defines the electrical, mechanical and low-level protocol characteristics of the bus
structure, the GPIB (General Purpose Interface Bus).
Several SCPI features have been implemented in the 3900 to facilitate system integration.
These features include the extended status reporting structure, the error numbering scheme, the
command mnemonic derivation rules (long and short form) and many of the frequently used
commands. Many of the SCPI features included in the 3900 are not defined by the SCPI
standard, therefore, the 3900 is not fully compliant with SCPI (Standard Commands for
Programmable Instruments) requirements. Refer to SCPI 1997 for details.
Refer to Chapter 3, section titled Remote Tile
for information on configuring the Test Set for
Remote Operation.
Refer to the 3900 Series Remote Programming Manual for list of valid remote commands.
