3. If you now control the R&S
SMB with SCPI commands, using an appropriate tool,
the SCPI remote trace records the information sent and received.
The function records all sent commands, received responses and messages, and
stores them in an internal database. If "live mode" is disabled, you can display the
recent traces upon request, using the "refresh" button. You can also store the log in
a file.
Note:
The diagnostics functionality is extended in later releases, e.g. to download
or upload SCPI command files from / to the instrument.
