The System and
Command Editor
WaveCAD requires the correct configuration to work with the 3155.
For example, the computer you are using must be connected to the
PXI chassis through a known and well-defined communication link,
such as, MXI3. Also, software and registers must be set properly for
the generator to function properly. It is also possible for the 3155 to
have problems communicating with your computer. The System and
Command Editor dialog box has all the tools needed to make sure
that the 3155 is connected properly and that it responds correctly to
machine commands.
To invoke the System and Command Editor, use the System menu at
the top of the screen. The dialog box, as shown in Figure 3-11, pops
up when invoked. There are three main functions that execute using
this dialog box: Communications, System Commands SCPI com-
mand editor. Description of the various elements of this dialog box
are given below.
Communication
The Communication group lets you select the proper communication
link for connecting the 3155 to the computer. In general, WaveCAD
does that automatically for you when you invoke the program by
graying out unavailable options such as GPIB.
