Operating Information
FORMATS OF NUMERICAL INPUTS
Throughout Tables 3-1 and 3-3, numerical inputs are appended to
some commands. These are:
Format/Values
m 0 = Function Off.
1 = Function On.
d Variable length parameter, including sign and decimal
point, if desired. These parameters require the termin-
ators "~", "[cr][lf]", "[lf]", "DB~", "db~",
"DB[cr] [lf]", or "db[cr] [lf]". When the value of d does
not correspond to the function's resolution or range, d
will be rounded and assigned the closest allowable value.
n Decimal integers 1 through 9.
q Values unique to the particular function and
explained under COMMAND DESCRIPTION or NOTES.
HP-IB ONLY FUNCTIONS
HP-IB only functions are shown in Table 3-1.
The Blank CRT Display Features commands provide for blanking the
entire CRT display or restoring the display to its normal, power on
condition.
The Clear Status command clears (sets to zero) both Status Bytes.
The Format Data commands are useful for outputting data, as shown in
Table 3-2. The Format Data ASCII, "FDO" command, will output data in
the format of ASCII signed digits, as shown in the table. The Format
Data Binary, "FDl" command, will output data in the form of two bytes,
the most significant byte sent first, when using the Output Cursor,
Output Data, or Output Value commands. If these are read as a 16 bit
word, and converted to a decimal value, the following formulas may be
used to scale the data:
MEAS RATIO or M-MEM:
dB value= (decimal value)* 180 I 32767 90
MEAS PWR
dBm value = (decimal value) * 90 I 32767 70
The Pass Through command is discussed under the 8756 SYSTEM
INTERFACE. Request Mask is explained under SERVICE REQUEST & STATUS
'YTES.
