Command Reference
CALL 1
The CALL 1 command determines the bridge settings and
ensures that the subsequent command (CROP or CRSH)
performs an open or short compensation for all 69 test fre-
quencies. It is necessary to first send CROP or CRSH be -
fore the compensation is performed.
CROP
The CROP command performs an open compensation.
The R&S®HM8118 automatically reports immediately if a
compensation was successful (0) or if it failed (-1).
CRSH
The CRSH command performs a short compensation. The
HM8118 automatically reports immediately if a compensa-
tion was successful (0) or if it failed (-1).
XALL?
The XALL? query queries the measurement values of the
main measurement value display, the secondary measure-
ment value display and the number of sorting bins. The
measurement values are issued separated by a comma. If
the binning interface is not activated / not integrated or if
the current measurement is invalid, the sorting bin value
99 issued.
XMAJ?
The XMAJ? query queries the measurement value of the
main measurement value display. If the measurement va-
lue display is set to percentage deviation and if the nomi-
nal measurement value is „0“, an error message will be
issued.
XMIN?
The XMIN? query queries the measurement value of the
secondary measurement value display. If the measurement
value display is set to percentage deviation and if the no-
minal measurement value is „0“, an error message will be
issued.
XDLT?
The XDLT? query queries the absolute deviation between
the measurement value and the nominal measurement va-
lue (see also PREL command). If the automatic measure-
ment mode (AUTO) is selected, an error message is
issued.
XDMT?
The XDMT? query queries the relative deviation between
the measurement value and the nominal measurement va-
lue (see also PREL command). If the nominal measurement
value is set to „0“ or if the automatic measurement mode
(AUTO) is selected, an error message is issued.
10.3 Command List Binning Interface
(only with integrated binning interface R&S®HO118)
XBIN?
The XBIN? query queries the number of sorting bins for the
current measurement. If the binning interface is not swit-
ched on / not activated or if the current measurement is in-
valid, the sorting bin value 99 issued.
BBUZ(?) i
The BBUZ command activates (i=1) or deactivates (i=0) the
alarm function of the binning interface. The BBUZ? query
queries the current status of the alarm function.
BCLR
The BCLR command deletes the nominal values and limits
for all sorting bins. It also deactivates the binning interface.
BING(?) {i}
The BING command locks (i=0) and enables (i=1) the bin-
ning. If no sorting bin is opened or if the measurement
mode „AUTO“ is selected for the R&S®HM8118 , an error
message is issued.
BLIH j,(?) {x}
The BLIH command sets the maximum limit (i = 0) of a
sorting bin j to x % between 0 and 7. The BLIH? query
queries the maximum limit (i = 0) of the sorting bin.
BLIL j,(?) {x}
The BLIL command sets the lower limit (i = 1) for a sorting
bin j x % between 0 and 7. The lower limit must be less
than or equal to the upper limit. If no lower limit has been
set, the R&S®HM8118 applies the negative value of the up-
per limit as lower limit. The query BLIL? queries the lower
limit (i = 1) of the sorting bin.
BNOM i,(?) {x}
The BNOM command set sets the nominal value of the
sorting bin i to the value x. The value i can be anywhere
between 0 and 8 (sorting bin 8 is the QDR sorting bin for
failures). If no nominal value has been set for the sorting
bin, the R&S®HM8118 applies the nominal value of the sub-
sequent lowest numbered sorting bin with a nominal va-
lue of unequal 0 (multiple sorting bins can have the identi-
cal nominal value without having a value entered for each
sorting bin). The lowest numbered active sorting bin must
have a selected nominal value. The sorting bin 0 must al-
ways be set for the binning to work. The query BNOM?
queries the nominal value of the sorting bin.
