manual; see chapter SCPI Command Reference.
PNA, HP8510, HP8720, HP8753 ... denote command sets for network analyzers from other
manufacturers. The ANRITSU language comprises a basic command set only.
Remote Language settings other than DEFAULT are intended for remote control of the analyzer. A
mixed approach, with part of the instrument configuration defined via the GUI, is possible but may cause
unexpected results in some instances.
Depending on the remote language, Wait for Data Ready after Single Sweep should be selected to ensure
the calculation of measurement results is properly completed. The setting causes a *WAI to be inserted
after each INITiate<Ch>[:IMMediate] command.
The ID String and the OPT String of the analyzer are adjusted to the selected Remote Language. The
strings can be queried via *IDN? and *OPT?, respectively.
If the DEFAULT language is activated, the factory ID string Rohde&Schwarz,ZVB<Max. Freq.-
Ports>Port,<Serial_no>,<FW_Version> (e.g. Rohde&Schwarz,ZVB8-
4Port,1145101010100001,1.70.5) is set. The OPT string is a comma-separated list of all installed
software and hardware options, e.g. ZVAB-K2, ZVA-K4. The bit order for transferred binary data is
swapped.
If the PNA language is activated, Agilent-compatible ID and OPT strings are set. The bit order for
transferred binary data is normal.
If one of the HP xxxx languages is activated, HP xxxx-compatible ID and OPT strings are set.
Binary data is transferred in a device-specific bit order, however, the bit order can be changed
using HP xxxx-specific commands.
The ID and OPT strings can be changed or reset to the R&S factory ID string.
Show Error Messages activates a information popup box (tooltip), to be displayed whenever the parser
encounters an remote control command error. The tooltip appears at the bottom of the remote or manual
screen; e.g.:
The tooltip is not displayed for SCPI errors no. –113, Undefined header. Its purpose is to provide
information that can be useful for program development and optimization; it does not necessarily indicate
that a remote control script is faulty or non-executable.

External Power Meters
Configures external power meters with their connection type and device address.
Use of external power meters, examples
An external power meter can serve different purposes:
Extended measurement functionality: Each external power meter represents an additional receive
port. External generators increase the number of RF output signals of a DUT that the analyzer can
