3 Limitation
General
The signal generators SM* offers built in “language emulation”.
This “language emulation” capability assures, that the SM*
o processes all documented commands without malfunction of the
emulation software or the instruments software at all.
o processes all documented parameters of a command without
malfunction of the emulation software or the instruments software.
This “language emulation” does NOT assure, that the SM*
o processes all commands exactly as the emulated instrument does.
o processes all parameters of a command exactly as the emulated
instrument does.
o processes emulation languages, implemented on the emulated
instrument.
o operates with the same timing as with the emulated instrument.
o sets up additional supporting hardware, e.g., the auxiliary i/o interface in
the same way as the emulated instrument does.
In particular, please note that undocument commands and parameters
can lead to undesirable effects in the SM*.
Command compability
The “language emulation” processes all commands and all parameters of a
command without malfunction of the emulation software or the instruments
software.
Nevertheless, not all command and the parameters of a command are
supported due to the technical limitations of the SM*.
Therefore, each command is linked to a implementation and compatibility
status.
The following table shows the different implementation and compatibility status.
