Component Test Digital Commands
Dual ARB Subsystem–Option 651/652/654 ([:SOURce]:RADio[1]:ARB)
:TRIGger[:SOURce]:EXTernal[:SOURce]
Supported N5182A with Option 651/652/654
[:SOURce]:RADio:ARB:TRIGger[:SOURce]:EXTernal[:SOURce] EPT1|EPT2|
EPTRIGGER1|EPTRIGGER2
[:SOURce]:RADio:ARB:TRIGger[:SOURce]:EXTernal[:SOURce]?
This command selects which PATTERN TRIG IN connection the Agilent MXG uses to accept an
externally applied trigger signal when external is the trigger source selection.
For more information on configuring an external trigger source and to select external as the trigger
source, see “:TRIGger[:SOURce]” on page 160. For more information on the rear- panel connectors, see
the User’s Guide.
The following list describes the command choices:
EPT1 This choice is synonymous with EPTRIGGER1 and selects the PAT TRIG rear- panel
connector.
EPT2 This choice is synonymous with EPTRIGGER2 and selects the PATT TRIG IN 2 pin
on the rear- panel AUX I/O connector.
EPTRIGGER1 This choice is synonymous with EPT1 and selects the PAT TRIG rear- panel
connector.
EPTRIGGER2 This choice is synonymous with EPT2 and selects the PATT TRIG IN 2 pin on the
rear- panel AUXILIARY I/O connector.

:WAVeform
Supported N5182A with Option 651/652/654
[:SOURce]:RADio:ARB:WAVeform "WFM1:file_name"|"SEQ:file_name"
[:SOURce]:RADio:ARB:WAVeform?
This command selects a waveform file or sequence, for the dual ARB player to play. The file must be
present in volatile memory, WFM1, or in the SEQ directory. If a file is in non- volatile memory
(NVWFM), use the command “:COPY[:NAME]” on page 81 to copy the file to WFM1.Any specified
values in the header are applied to the ABR upon selection. Unspecified fields in the header cause no
change in the ARB state.
"WFM1:file_name" This variable names a waveform file residing in volatile memory (WFM1:). For
information on the file name syntax, see “File Name Variables” on page 12.
"SEQ:file_name" This variable names a sequence file residing in the catalog of sequence files. For
more information on the file name syntax, see “File Name Variables” on page 12.
Example
:RAD:ARB:WAV "WFM1:Test_Data"
The preceding example selects the file Test_Data from the list of files in volatile waveform memory,
WFM1, and applies its file header settings.
