3.11.12 Talk-Only Use, for Data
Output
This pertains to a relatively simple system, with the
Digibridge outputting data to one or more “listen-on-
ly” (IEEE-488 compatible) devices such as a printer.
1. Set the TALK switch to TALK ONLY.
2. Program the Digibridge to send out results
automatically after each measurement. (Refer
to paragraph 3.11.3.)
The “special” commands for this purpose can be
executed only in ENTER function, as follows.
Bin numbers only
[1]= [SHIFT][SPECIAL][2]
QDR results only
[2]= [SHIFT][SPECIAL][2]
QDR and bin numbers
[3]= [SHIFT][SPECIAL][2]
RLC results only
[4]= [SHIFT][SPECIAL][2]
RLS and bin numbers
[5]= [SHIFT][SPECIAL][2]
RLC and QDR results
[6]= [SHIFT][SPECIAL][2]
RLS, QDR and bin numbers
= full data
[7]= [SHIFT][SPECIAL][2]
No data on PASS, Full data
on FAIL
[8]= [SHIFT][SPECIAL][2]
BIN No. on PASS, full data
on FAIL
[9]= [SHIFT][SPECIAL][2]
For no data output via IEEE-
488 bus
[0]= [SHIFT][SPECIAL][2]
Operate the Digibridge in the usual way (manually).
The system may constrain operation in some way. For
example, a slow printer will limit the measurement
rate because it requires a certain time to print one
value before it can accept the next.
Refer to Table 3-20 for examples of the interface
message code for data transfer. This table shows
typical codes, but does not repeat the entire ASCII
code. (There is a more complete table, in paragraph
Table 2-1 on page 11.)
NOTE: For a description of the compacted binary data
output format (which saves time), refer to paragraph
3.11.14.
