MODE and Mode Setup
Instrument Functions: M - O
3.6.2 Application Mode Number Selection (Remote command only)
Select the measurement mode by its mode number. The actual available choices depend
upon which applications are installed in your instrument.
Dependencies/
Couplings: Other modes, besides Spectrum Analysis, must be installed/licensed in
your instrument before they will appear in the
Mode menu. Some modes
also require the presence of specific hardware.
SCPI Status Bits/
OPC Dependencies: If you are using the status bits and the analyzer mode is changed, the
status bits should be read, and any errors resolved, prior to switching
modes. Error conditions that exist prior to switching modes cannot be
detected using the condition registers after the mode change. This is true
unless they recur after the mode change, although transitions of these
conditions can be detected using the event registers.
Changing modes resets all SCPI status registers and mask registers to
their power-on defaults. Hence, any event or condition register masks
must be re-established after a mode change. Also note that the power up
status bit is set by any mode change, since that is the default state after
power up.
Factory Preset: 1 (Spectrum Analysis)
If
Preset Type Mode is selected, then the analyzer settings are preset but it
stays in that selected mode.
