Spy windows are provided by
COMPASS
to troubleshoot or analyze remote communications.
The caption of the spy window contains the instrument name and interface being spied on.
Use the information in the
<Command>
,
<Raw Response>
, and
<COMPASS Uses>
fields
to determine if
COMPASS
is properly configured for the remote device. The command/response
information is updated real time as long as the interface is open. See Section 13.1 for details
on the remote interface concepts used by
COMPASS
.
See
Table
13
for details on information displayed by spy windows.
Figure 27. <Spy Window>
Screen
Selecting text in any column automatically highlights the corresponding text in the
other columns. If the text width exceeds the column width, a tooltip message will display
with the full text of the column if the mouse is held over the selection.
Pay close attention to the instrument interface in the spy window caption. If the interface
displayed does not correspond to the actual instrument interface, there is a configuration
problem in COMPASS. Use [Setup], [Hardware] to make interface changes to an
instrument and [Setup], [System] to specify instruments to be used (see Sections 10.3, 10.2).

DESCRIPTION
Do not auto scroll
lists on new
commands
When checked, use the scroll bars of any field to view commands previously sent.
The spy window will not auto scroll with each new command. If this option is not
checked, every new command scrolls all three columns of the spy window.
Command
The exact command sent by
COMPASS
over the instrument interface. The command
terminator is the only portion of the command that is typically not visible. For set
commands, make sure the command and set value are properly formatted
(see Section 13.2.3).
Raw Response
The unmanipulated response to the
<Command>
value issued. This field should
always be blank if the command has the
<No Response>
box checked.
COMPASS Uses
The
<Leading characters to strip>
command setup information is used to format the
<Raw Response>
. The result is displayed in this field and logged as
COMPASS
data.
Responses not specifically used by
COMPASS
do not have a value in this field.
When troubleshooting, make sure the value displayed is the desired information.
