Chapter 4
USING THE ENHANCED MONITORING SYSTEM
Overview
This chapter contains information about how to operate the
Model 1261B Enhanced Monitoring System (EMS). The
instrument can be programmed using a set of SCPI commands.
A list of SCPI commands, implemented by the Model 1261B
EMS, is given in
Table 5-1.
The following paragraphs describe
the various modes of operation and give examples on how to
program the Model 1261B EMS.
Power On/Reset
Defaults
After executing a software reset, the EMS defaults to the
conditions shown in
Table 4-1.
A complete list of all parameters
and their default values is given in Chapter 5.
NOTE
When disconnecting AC power from the 1261B, such
as when using a power strip, wait at least three
seconds before reconnecting. This ensures that the
EMS is properly reset.
Upon power-on, the EMS state will be reset to the power-on
state described in
Table 4-1
. If DIP switch SW1-8 is set, the
instrument state will be recalled from nonvolatile memory
location 0. As shipped from the factory, nonvolatile location 0
holds the instrument state as described in
Table 4-1.
The
power-on state of the EMS can be changed by overwriting the
contents of nonvolatile location 0 by using the command:
*SAV 0
The command below may be used to place the instrument in its
default state as described in
Table 4-1
on the following page.
*RST
