CMW 500 Remote Control
Control of the Instrument
Operating Manual 1202.3986.32 – 03 93
Generator control commands are of the following type (see also Firmware
Applications):
SCPI subsystem <Application> Generator, logical instrument State
SOURce :GSM |
:WCDMa |:GPRF
:GENerator<i> :STATe ON | OFF
Example: SOURCe:GPRF:GENerator[:STATe] ON | OFF
SOURce:<Application>:GENerator<i>:STATe ON
Starts the generator, reserves all necessary hardware and system resources and
changes to the generator state "PENDing", then "ON". If the generator is already
turned on the command has no effect.
If the hardware and system resources are already assigned to another firmware
application, this firmware application is released in order to start the generator; see
Resource and Path Management.
If the generator cannot be started due to an unrecoverable resource conflict (e.g. a
missing software option) it remains in the OFF state. The SCPI error "–213, Init
ignored, ...", is generated.
Command synchronization
Before you use the generator signal, use the query
SOURce:<Application>:GENerator<i>:STATe?
to ensure that the generator has
reached its ON state and that the generator signal is available.
SOURce:<Application>:GENerator<i>:STATe OFF
Switches the generator off, releases the hardware resources for other generators, and
changes to the generator state "OFF". If the generator is already turned off the
command has no effect.
