Controlling the System with the PNA-X
Using Interface Control Mode
An Instrument Preset will reset all of the fields to their default settings.
If an error is encountered when sending Interface Control data, an error
message is displayed on the PNA-X screen and the Channel Trigger State
is set to Hold. You must fix the condition that caused the error, then change
the Channel Trigger State to its original setting.

Interface Control Panel
Enable Interface Control
Enables and disables ALL Interface Control communication. When cleared (default setting)
Interface Control is disabled and NO data is sent. To send data, the individual interfaces must
also be enabled.
Test Set I/O Control (addr.data):
Provides control of the Test Set I/O Interface on the rear panel of the PNA-X. Used to control
your Test Set.
Only positive integers are allowed to select switch positions or states of DUT control interface
lines. Refer to
"Address and Data Values" on page 75
Address and data integers must be separated by a period. Each set of entries should be
separated by a new line, or carriage return. The front panel Enter key can be used to insert a new
line into the field. The quantity of Test Set I/O entries that can be entered is limited by the
available memory of the PNA-X.
