Logging the commands may be extremely useful for debug purposes, e.g. in order to
find misspelled keywords in control programs.
Remote command:
SYSTem:CLOGging
on page 1330
Display Remote Errors
Activates and deactivates the display of errors that occur during remote operation of
the R&S
FSW. If activated, the R&S FSW displays a message box at the bottom of the
screen that contains the type of error and the command that caused the error.
The error message remains in place when you switch to "Local" mode. To close the
message box, select the "Close" icon.
Only the most recent error is displayed in remote mode. However, in local mode, all
errors that occurred during remote operation are listed in a separate tab of the "Net-
work + Remote" dialog box (see
Chapter 13.5.5, "Remote Errors" , on page 795).
Remote command:
SYSTem:ERRor:DISPlay
on page 1297
SYSTem:ERRor:CLEar:REMote
on page 1304
Set Hardware Immediately
Determines when the remote commands that change hardware settings on the
R&S
FSW are executed.
If enabled (default), remote commands are always executed immediately when they
are received by the instrument.
If disabled, remote commands that cause changes to the hardware are only executed
when an appropriate command is executed explicitely.
Regardless of this setting, the firmware automatically sets the hardware when a sweep
is started.
Postponing hardware changes is useful, for example, when switching measurement
channels. When you switch channels, the settings from the previous channel are used
by default. However, if you have to change the frequency and level values for the new
channel measurement, the default settings cause unnecessary hardware settling
times.
This setting is not changed by the preset function.
Remote command:
SYSTem:SHIMmediate:STATe

SYSTem:SHIMmediate ONCE

13.5.3 Compatibility Settings
The R&S FSW can emulate the GPIB interface of other signal and spectrum analyzers,
e.g. in order to use existing control applications.
