6 Remote Control
This chapter provides instructions on how to set up the tester for remote control, a general
introduction to remote control of programmable instruments, and the description of the
tester's remote control concept. For reference information about all remote control com-
mands implemented by the instrument, complemented by comprehensive program
examples, refer to the "Command Reference" and "Programming" chapters.
Programming examples, software tool
The programming examples in the reference chapters have been tested with the aid of
a simple software tool which provides an environment for the development and execution
of remote tests. Tool-specific program syntax has been omitted, with the exception of
some simple program elements for comments:
●
REM: Remark, command line not executed
●
FPRINT <Text>: Include text in the output file
●
WAITKEY <Text>: Display a dialog containing the text and waiting for user interaction
before the program is continued
