NOTE
If the 5071A should return a prompt other than “scpi >“ or
“E-xxx>“, it will not be possible to monitor and control the instrument
with SCPI commands as documented in the manual.
This could occur in a terminal emulator after using the
Profiling Software if the program was not exited properly, or
suffered a system crash during execution.
1 If the prompt is “p4th A>>“ (note the double “>>“ in this prompt)
type h and press the Enter or Return key.
This should result in an error message and bring up a
second prompt “p4th A>“. Proceed to step 2 below.
2 If the prompt is “p4thA >“ type (all lower case) halt and press the
Enter or Return key.
This should return you to the SCPI system with either the “scpi >“ or
“E-xxx>“ prompt.
The output file is in the current directory with the name PROFILE.TXT. The
file can be viewed using the usual DOS utilities, or printed.
