HP IBASIC Supplement 5-17
Developing Programs
Using IBASIC Display
Table 5-1 IBASIC Display Partitions
NOTE Split-screen format is automatically selected if UPPER or LOWER is
selected. When the UPPER or LOWER display partition is selected, the
measurement display automatically selects the “split-screen” format.
This format uses half of the screen to display each measurement
channel's measurement data. Measurement channel 1 data is always
shown on the upper half of the screen, and measurement channel 2 data
is shown on the lower half. The split-screen format allows measurement
data to be viewed simultaneously with IBASIC program output. For
more information about the split-screen format, or other parts of the
measurement display, refer to your analyzer's User's Guide.
Display allocation should be managed by your program using SCPI
commands. The softkeys are best used during program development.
An IBASIC partition can be very useful during program development. It
can be used to view program output, to query variables, and to execute
IBASIC commands (such as GET and REN) outside of your program.
Figure 5-3 on page 5-18 shows the relative size and location of the
different IBASIC partitions and their command and display lines.
