HP 4155A Programmer's Guide

HP 4155A/4156A SCPI Programming
Programming: Print/Plot Operation
If you print/plot from built-in IBASIC, change display mode to All
Instrument or IBASIC Status by sending :DISPlay[:WINDow]:ALLocation
command.
4. Print/plot the setup data by sending :HCOPy command.
If you print/plot from an external computer, pass Active Controller
capability to HP 4155A/4156A after sending :HCOPy command because HP
4155A/4156A requires Active Controller capability to print.
Refer to the following example.
Example The following two examples load a sweep setup le, then print setup data of
the MEASURE: SWEEP SETUP page:
