Example
SYST:CONF:DUT:GAIN 10
'The R&S FS-K30 option will expect the gain of the DUT to be
10 dB.
Characteristics:
*RST value: 30 dB
SCPI: device-specific
SYSTem:CONFigure:DUT:STIMe <numeric value> <numeric value>
This remote control command allows the DUT settling time to be modified. It
represents the time to wait for the DUT to settle after a noise source has been
turned on or off.
Example
“SYST:CONF:DUT:STIM 1000MS
'The R&S FS-K30 option will wait for a period of one second
for the DUT to settle down after exposure to the noise source
has been removed.
Characteristics:
*RST value: 50 milliseconds
SCPI: device-specific
3.2 Status reporting registers
The status reporting system (see Fig. 43) stores all information on the present
operating state of the instrument, e.g. that the instrument presently carries out a
calibration and on errors which have occurred. This information is stored in the status
registers and in the error queue. The status registers and the error queue can be
queried via IEC bus.
The information is of a hierarchical structure. The register status byte (STB) defined in
IEEE 488.2 and its associated mask register service request enable (SRE) form the
uppermost level. The STB receives its information from the standard event status
register (ESR) which is also defined in IEEE 488.2 with the associated mask register
standard event status enable (ESE) and registers STATus:OPERation and
STATus:QUEStionable which are defined by SCPI and contain detailed information on
the instrument.
The IST flag ("Individual STatus") and the parallel poll enable register (PPE) allocated
to it are also part of the status reporting system. The IST flag, like the SRQ, combines
the entire instrument status in a single bit. The PPE fulfils the same function for the IST
flag as the SRE for the service request.
The output buffer contains the messages the instrument returns to the controller. It is
not part of the status reporting system but determines the value of the MAV bit in the
STB and thus is represented in
