Using 8757D Pass-Thru Commands
Pass-thru commands enable you to temporarily interrupt ramp sweep system interaction so that you can send
operating instructions to the PSG. This section provides setup information and an example program for using
pass-thru commands in a ramp sweep system.
Equipment Setup
To send pass-thru commands, set up the equipment as shown in Figure 2-1. Notice that the GPIB cable from
the computer is connected to the GPIB interface bus of the 8757D.
