13.1 Programming examples
This chapter provides simple programming examples for the R&S SGS. The purpose
of the examples is to present all commands for a given task. In real applications, one
would rather reduce the examples to an appropriate subset of commands.
The programming examples have been tested with a software tool which provides an
environment for the development and execution of remote tests. To keep the examples
as simple as possible, only the "clean" SCPI syntax elements are reported. Non-exe-
cutable command lines (e.g. comments) start with two // characters.
At the beginning of most remote control program, an instrument preset/reset is recom-
mended to set the R&S SGS to a defined state. The commands *RST and
SYSTem:PRESet are equivalent for this purpose. *CLS also resets the status registers
and clears the output buffer.
It is also recommended that you lock the instrument for remote control from the
selected controller before further configuration. Use the LOCK command for this pur-
pose.
We assume that the R&S SGS is fully equipped with all available options.
