10.2.5 RS-232 – Communication examples
The following examples show the requests from the host and the responses from the
generator for a selection of different commands.
Example 1: Write set-point
Example 1 shows the data transferred for a write command for parameter 1206 (0x04B6)
“Power set-point”. The host sends “200.000 (0x00030D40 = 200 W)” as value which
means the set-point for “Output Forward” or “Load Power” in mW, depending on the
control mode.
Since this is a write command, the generator echoes the request as response indicating
that the transaction was successful.

Example 2: Read set-point
Example 2 shows the data transferred for a read command for parameter: 1206 (0x04B6)
“Power set-point”. The response from the generator contains a 4-byte integer value as
data. In this case, the value is 200.000 (0x0030D40 = 200 W) which means that the set-
point is 200.000 mW or 200 W. Unit is identical for set-point and read-back value.
