(Send UUT Data command) Send data to the UUT serial port in binary block or string
data format over the 5500A Calibrator rear panel SERIAL 2 TO UUT serial port. The
command may be sent over gpib or RS-232 ports, but applies to SERIAL 2 TO UUT
serial port operation. Include a line feed (RS-232) character to terminate the block data
or End or Identify (EOI) command (IEEE-488).
Parameter: #2<nn><nn characters string> (definite length)
#0<character string> (indefinite length)
“<character string>“ (character string)
Examples:
UUT_SEND #206F1S2R0 (definite length format)
Send the data F1S2R0 to the UUT in definite length format. The format is #2 (two
numbers follow) 06 (characters follow) F1S2R0 (6 characters).
UUT_SEND #0F1S2R0 (indefinite length format)
Send the data F1S2R0 to the UUT in indefinite length format. The format is #0 then the
characters.
UUT_SEND "F1S2R0" (character string)
Send the data F1S2R0 to the UUT as a character string.
Special Case When the character string sent to a UUT must end in a carriage return
(CR) command or line feed (LF) command or both, you must use the following:
Definite Length Format Follow the instructions above and after the character string
add a command ^J for CR or ^M for LF or both, where ^J means hold down the <Cntl>
key and type the letter J. For example, sending the string REMS in this format with both
CR and LF, you would count 4 characters for REMS and 1 character each for ^J and ^M
for a total of 6 characters. The command would be UUT_SEND #206REMS^J^M then
<enter>. (The ^J and ^M “characters” actually perform the CR and LF functions.)
Indefinite Length Format This format may not be used when a character string
requires CR and LF commands.
Character String Follow the instructions above and after the character string, add a \n
for CR or \r for LF or both, where the alpha character is entered in lower case. For
example, in the terminal mode to send the string REMS in this format with both CR and
LF, the command would be UUT_SEND “REMS\n\r”. In the computer mode where
commands are entered as part of a command string, use double quotes to show
embedded quotes. For example, "uut_send ""REMS\n\r"" ".
The following characters and commands may be implemented as described above:
Carriage Return ^J \n
Line Feed ^M \r
Tab Tab \t
Backspace ^H \b
Form Feed ^L \f
