R&S NRP Remote Control - Commands

High-Level Measurement Commands (CONFigure, MEASure, READ and FETCh)
The high-level measurement commands CONFigure, MEASure, READ and FETCh combine several
setting commands and thus simplify programming of the R&S NRP. The most convenient command is
MEASure. This command configures sensors and calculate blocks, initiates a measurement and
provides measurement results. The other commands perform only portions of these functions and thus
allow the user to make specific modifications between the individual steps.
Strictly speaking, the CONFigure command is not a measurement command because it does not yield
data and only configures a measurement. It differs from the other three high-level measurement
commands as follows: a question mark at the end of the command provides information on current
settings. With other commands, the question mark is compulsory and shows that the measured data is
queried.
The commands have different functions:
CONFigure:...
The calculate blocks and the associated sensors are configured by means of the
parameter list. A measurement is not started. A question mark at the end of the
command provides information on the parameters transferred by the last
CONFigure or MEASure command, respectively. Since the device settings can be
changed after a
CONFigure, the query does not return the current device setup

.
CONFigure is performed internally by SENSe and CALCulate commands. One or
several measurement channels are configured as follows:
Measurement mode: ContAv Burst Timeslot Scope
INIT:CONT OFF OFF OFF OFF
TRIG:SOUR IMM INT EXT IMM
TRIG:COUN 1 1 1 1
TRIG:DEL:AUTO ON ON ON ON
SENS:AVER:COUN:AUTO ON ON ON -
SENS:AVER:COUN:AUTO:TYPE ON ON ON -
SENS:AVER:COUN:AUTO:SLOT - - 1 -
SENS:AVER:STAT ON ON ON ON
UNIT:POW
UNIT:RAT
Is set as a function of the selected calculation
function.
