Remote Operation Getting Started Guide
This guide describes remote operation and control of a Transport Module, Multi-Service
Application Module (MSAM), or T-BERD/MTS 5800 using SCPI commands.
SCPI command syntax and format requirements are presented along with instructions on
how to establish a connection to a module and initiate example applications. A list of
commands and queries that apply to all applications concludes this section as a reference
for basic remote control applications.
Controlled modules may be a part of an MTS-8000 or MTS 6000A Test Platform. As these
platforms are physically different, only those physical features that apply directly to remote
operations will be discussed when necessary.
