Fig. 6-1: Overview of SCPI command systems and their mutual interaction
The figure above gives an overview of the SCPI command systems of the R&S NRP2.
The measured values are forwarded to the SENSe block where they are processed and
handed to the
CALCulate
blocks. The values from the
SENSe
block are not immediately
made available to the user, but only after they have been processed in the
CALCulate
blocks. In the
CALCulate
blocks, the values of several sensors can be processed
together before they are output. High-level commands may be used to configure
SENSe
and
CALCulate
blocks with a single command. This may considerably simplify
operation of the R&S NRP2. The frequency-dependent correction tables for the mea-
sured values are managed by the
MEMory
command system.
