Error queues
The error queue should be queried after every service request in the controller pro-
gram as the entries describe the cause of an error more precisely than the status regis-
ters. Especially in the test phase of a controller program the error queue should be
queried regularly since faulty commands from the controller to the instrument are
recorded there as well.
10.2 GPIB Languages
The R&S FSW analyzer family supports a subset of the GPIB commands used by
other devices. Thus it can emulate other devices in order to use existing remote control
programs.
The device model to be emulated is selected manually using "SETUP > Network +
Remote > GPIB tab > Language". Via the GPIB interface using the SYSTem:
LANGuage on page 1050 command.
In order to emulate device models that are not part of the selection list of the GPIB
"Language" setting, you can modify the identification string received in response to the
ID command ("Identification String" setting). Thus, any device model whose command
set is compatible with one of the supported device models can be emulated.
