A Attention:
In rare cases concerning remote control sequences,
reading measurement values directly after changing a
function value in the USM 35X, there could be errors as
long as the instrument has not ended setting the value.
In such cases, additional commands must be inserted
into the remote control sequence before the measure-
ment values are read.
Example:
If you create a remote control sequence, by which the
sound path of an echo is read after freezing the A-
scan, the command chain would be as follows:
Command Answer Description
<ESC>F<RETURN> “A-scan freeze”
<ESC>E3<RETURN> 50,74 “Read sound path”
<ESC>F<RETURN> “Disable A-scan freeze”
...
In the interests of security, insert additional read com-
mands before reading the sound path, e.g.:
Command Answer Description
...
<ESC>F<RETURN> “A-scan freeze”
<ESC>DB<RETURN> 580 “Read dB setting”
<ESC>DB<RETURN> 580 “Read dB setting”
<ESC>DB<RETURN> 580 “Read dB setting”
<ESC>DB<RETURN> 580 “Read dB setting”
<ESC>E3<RETURN> 50,74 “Read sound path”
<ESC>F<RETURN> “Disable A-scan freeze”
...
With these measures you ensure that sufficient time
has passed in order to completely execute the previ-
ous command (display freeze) before transferring the
sound path. Finally, check your remote control se-
quence to see that the measurement values can be
correctly read, and add further read commands if nec-
essary.
