2.1 Screen Tabs
2.1.1.5 Sequencer
Allows multiple Screens to update sequentially while in "Multiscreen" on page 176
display mode. Each Screen updates in sequence, and when all have updated, the
sequence will start again.
To start the Sequencer, you must have more than one Screen defined, and you must
have Multiscreen selected (see "Screen Tabs" on page 87).
If you want each Screen to use a different input, you must turn off All Screens Use
Same Input under Input/Output, Input.
CAUTION
Differences in hardware settings between the Screens may cause switches
and/or attenuators to cycle as you go from one Screen to another. This could
potentially reduce the life of these components. To avoid this, make sure
Attenuation, µW Path Control and other switch settings are the same in each
Screen.
NOTE
When the Sequencer is running, the destination of remote commands is
unpredictable, so you should stop the Sequencer before sending any
measurement-related commands. Once the Sequencer has stopped, select a
specific Screen using :INSTrument:SCReen:SELect, before sending any
further commands. See "Select Screen" on page 178
NOTE
When the Sequencer is running, Auto alignment is temporarily disabled. A
pending auto alignment might be executed when the sequencer is stopped.
