You program the RF switch any way you want, with one or more commands per trans-
ducer range, as long as the command you are using is supported by the RF switch you
are using. For a comprehensive description of supported commands, refer to the docu-
mentation of the RF switch.
If you are using more than one command, add all commands in one line, separated by
a semicolon.
Each sequence of commands is sent to the RF switch when a transducer break
occurs. This is the case when the measurement is done for a certain transducer range.
If necessary, you can send each command sequence deliberately with the "Send" but-
tons.
In addition to the commands for each transducer range, you can send an initial com-
mand ("Default") that is sent under the following circumstances:
●
When you establish a connection to the RF switch.
●
When you load a dataset.
●
When you change the contents of the dataset.
You can use this default command, for example, to preset the RF switch.
Command sets
Most devices that you can control support commands that comply to the SCPI stan-
dard.
If you are using a device that does not support commands conform to the SCPI stan-
dard, turn off the "SCPI" property.
Remote command:
Default command: [SENSe:]CORRection:SWITch:DEFault[:COMMand]
on page 631
Send default command: [SENSe:]CORRection:SWITch:DEFault:EXECute
on page 632
Command set: [SENSe:]CORRection:SWITch:SCPI on page 634
Command sequence synchronization ← RF switch control
Command synchronization makes sure that all commands in the sequence are finished
before the next commands are sent.
When you turn on the "*OPC?" property, the R&S ESW automatically synchronizes the
command sequence for each transducer range.
Remote command:
[SENSe:]CORRection:SWITch:OPC on page 633
Delay time ← RF switch control
The "Delay" is a time period that the R&S ESW waits after each command sequence
has been sent.
The delay is a useful tool to make sure that the operation that the last command does
is done.
Remote command:
[SENSe:]CORRection:SWITch:WAIT on page 635
