Remote command:
SYSTem:DISPlay:UPDate on page 662
GPIB Terminator
Changes the GPIB receive terminator.
"LFEOI"
According to the standard, the terminator in ASCII is <LF> and/or
<EOI>.
"EOI"
For binary data transfers (e.g. trace data) from the control computer
to the instrument, the binary code used for <LF> might be included in
the binary data block, and therefore should not be interpreted as a
terminator in this particular case. This can be avoided by using only
the receive terminator EOI.
Remote command:
SYSTem:COMMunicate:GPIB[:SELF]:RTERminator on page 661
*IDN Format
Defines the response format to the remote command *IDN? (see *IDN?
on page 432). This function is intended for re-use of existing control programs
together with the R&S ESW.
"Leg"
Legacy format, as in the R&S FSP/FSU/FSQ family.
"New"
R&S ESW format.
Remote command:
SYSTem:FORMat:IDENt on page 671
I/O Logging
Activates or deactivates the SCPI error log function. All remote control commands
received by the R&S ESW are recorded in a log file. The files are named according to
the following syntax:
C:\R_S\INSTR\ScpiLogging\ScpiLog.<no.>
where <no.> is a sequential number
A new log file is started each time logging was stopped and is restarted.
Logging the commands may be extremely useful for debug purposes, e.g. in order to
find misspelled keywords in control programs.
Remote command:
SYSTem:CLOGging on page 621
Display Remote Errors
Activates and deactivates the display of errors that occur during remote operation of
the R&S ESW. If activated, the R&S ESW displays a message box at the bottom of the
screen that contains the type of error and the command that caused the error.
The error message remains in place when you switch to "Local" mode. To close the
message box, select the "Close" icon.
