6 Input/Output
6.1 RF Source
6.1.8.8 Remote Software Trigger (Remote command Only)
During execution of a list sequence, the sequence halts and waits at any step that
has Step Trigger set to “Bus”. Sending this command triggers the step and
continues the sequence.
Remote Command
:SOURce:LIST:TRIGger:INITiate[:IMMediate]
Example
:SOUR:LIST:TRIG:INIT
Dependencies Not available in E7760B
6.1.8.9 Query List Sequence Initiation Armed Status (Remote Query Only)
This is a blocking SCPI query to determine whether a source list sequence has been
initiated successfully.
Remote Command
:SOURce:LIST:INITiation:ARMed?
Example
:SOUR:LIST:INIT:ARMed?
Notes Returns “1” if list sequence has been initiated successfully, or “0” if not. If the response is “0”, use
:SYST:ERR? to query the actual error
Like *OPC?, this command can be blocked until event/status “IsSourceSweeping” occurs, and then
returns. Doing so can help a script query the armed status only once during the time interval of the
initiation. As an ancillary to the existing :SOUR:LIST:TRIGger[:IMMediate] (see "Initiate
Sequence" on page 2237), send this query after :SOUR:LIST:TRIG. Otherwise, this query will
return “1” immediately
The return data is in the following format: Integer
There is an alias: :SOURce:LIST:TRIGger:INITiation:ARMed?
Dependencies Not available in E7760B
6.1.9 Frequency Setup
Lets you access the Frequency Setup sub-menu panel.
Notes The menu under this control is for independent mode and has no effect on the "List Sequencer" on page
2236. If "Sequencer" on page 2237 is ON, the List Sequencer controls the source output and this key is
grayed-out, to indicate out-of-scope. When "Sequencer" on page 2237 is OFF, source leaves List
Sequencer and this button is blanked out
6.1.9.1 Frequency
Lets you set the RF Output Frequency. You can adjust the frequency of the source
using the numeric keypad, step keys, or RPG. Pressing any digit (0 through 9) on the
