126 Series N5700 User’s Guide
Differences – In General
The following table documents the general differences between the
way Compatibility commands work on the Keysight N5700 power
supplies and the way they worked on the Keysight 603xA power
supplies.
Queries The Keysight N5700 will respond to multiple queries.
It will not allow a space separator between numbers.
It will not allow a user to query information, read back only a portion of the information,
send another command, and finish reading back the information from the original query.
Sending a second query without reading the response to the first will generate an error.
Model number queries will only return the N5700 model numbers.
Status functions Serial Poll will be controlled by the SCPI status model and will not act like a 603xA
power supply.
SRQ will be controlled by the SCPI status model.
Parallel poll will not work.
Settings The full-scale limits will match the Keysight N5700 limits.
Measurement Floating point numbers returned by the instrument may not have exactly the same
syntax or number of digits.
Calibration Calibration must be done in SCPI.
Storage states The Keysight N5700 units have 16 volatile states.
