R&S ESU
Remote Control – Basics
Overview
5.1 Overview
This chapter contains the following:
• instructions on how to put the R&S ESU into operation via remote control,
• a general introduction to remote control of programmable instruments. This
includes the description of the command structure and syntax according to the
SCPI standard, the description of command execution and of the status registers,
• diagrams and tables describing the status registers used in the R&S ESU.
In chapter
“Remote Control – Description of Commands”
, all remote control func-
tions are described in detail. The subsystems are listed by alphabetical order
according to SCPI.
Program examples for the R&S ESU can be found in chapter
. The remote control interfaces and their interface functions
are described in chapter
“Maintenance and Instrument Interfaces”
5.2 Introduction
The instrument is equipped with an GPIB interface according to standard IEC 625.1/
IEEE 488.2 and an RS-232 interface. The connectors are located at the rear of the
instrument and permit to connect a controller for remote control.
In addition, the instrument can be remotely controlled in a local area network (LAN
interface).
The instrument supports the SCPI version 1997.0 (Standard Commands for Pro-
grammable Instruments). The SCPI standard is based on standard IEEE 488.2 and
aims at the standardization of device-specific commands, error handling and the
status registers (see section
“SCPI Introduction” on page 5.9
The tutorial "Automatic Measurement Control – A tutorial on SCPI and IEEE 488.2"
from John M. Pieper (R&S order number 0002.3536.00) offers detailed information
on concepts and definitions of SCPI. For remote control in a network, refer to section
“Remote Control in a Network (LAN Interface)” on page 5.7
.
This section assumes basic knowledge of GPIB programming and operation of the
controller. A description of the interface commands can be obtained from the rele-
vant manuals.
The requirements of the SCPI standard placed on command syntax, error handling
and configuration of the status registers are explained in detail in the following sec-
tions. Tables provide a fast overview of the bit assignment in the status registers.
The tables are supplemented by a comprehensive description of the status regis-
ters.
The program examples for GPIB programming are all written in VISUAL BASIC.
