SYSTem:COMMunicate:RDEVice:GENerator:COUNt?
Queries the number of configured external generators. The response is an integer
number of generators.
Example: See SYSTem:COMMunicate:RDEVice:GENerator<Gen>:
CATalog?
Usage: Query only
SYSTem:COMMunicate:RDEVice:GENerator<Gen>:DEFine <GenName>, <Driver>,
<Interface>, <Address>[, <FastSweep>[, <ExtReference>]]
Configures an external generator and adds it to the list of available generators.
Suffix:
<Gen>
.
Number of the configured generator. Generators must be num-
bered in ascending order, starting with 1. If a number is re-used,
the previous generator configuration is overwritten. Generators
can be assigned several times so that the number of configured
generators is practically unlimited.
Parameters:
<GenName> Name of the external generator (string parameter). An empty
string means that no particular name is assigned to the genera-
tor.
<Driver> Generator type (string parameter). The generator type is identi-
cal with the name of the generator driver file (*.gen) stored in
the resources\extdev subdirectory of the analyzer's program
directory. Type the driver file name as shown in the "Add Exter-
nal Generator" dialog, i.e. without the file extension ".gen"
(example: use 'sme02', if the corresponding driver file name is
sme02.gen).
Alternative: The '<driver>' string may also contain the gener-
ator driver file name with its complete path, e.g. 'C:\Program
Files\Rohde-Schwarz\Vector Network
Analyzer\ZNA\resources\extdev\sme02.gen'.
<Interface>
Interface type (string parameter): 'GPIB0', 'VXI-11',
'socket', 'usb-visa', 'other' ...
<Address> Interface address (string parameter), depending on the interface
type. See Chapter 5.19.5.2, "External Generators dialog",
on page 897.
<FastSweep> ON | OFF
Optional Boolean parameter, enables or disables the fast sweep
mode.
<ExtReference> ON | OFF
Optional Boolean parameter, sets the analyzer to internal (OFF)
or external (ON) reference frequency.
