Remote-Control Commands
The following commands are required to perform signal generation in a remote envi-
ronment. We assume that the R&S
SMCV100B has already been set up for remote
operation in a network as described in the R&S
SMCV100B user manual. Knowledge
about the remote control operation and the SCPI command syntax is assumed.
Conventions used in SCPI command descriptions
For a description of the conventions used in the remote command descriptions, see
section "Remote Control Commands" in the R&S
SMCV100B user manual.
Common suffixes
The following common suffixes are used in remote commands:

Programming examples
The corresponding sections of the same title provide simple programming examples for
the R&S
SMCV100B. The purpose of the examples is to present
all
commands for a
given task. In real applications, one would rather reduce the examples to an appropri-
ate subset of commands.
The programming examples have been tested with a software tool which provides an
environment for the development and execution of remote tests. To keep the examples
as simple as possible, only the "clean" SCPI syntax elements are reported. Non-exe-
cutable command lines (e.g. comments) start with two // characters.
At the beginning of the most remote control program, an instrument (p) reset is recom-
mended to set the R&S
SMCV100B to a definite state. The commands
*RST
and
SYSTem:PRESet
are equivalent for this purpose.
*CLS
also resets the status registers
and clears the output buffer.
In all the examples, we assume that a remote PC is connected to the instrument, the
remote PC and the instrument are switched on, a connection between them is estab-
lished. We also assume that the security setting "System Config > Setup > Security >
SCPI over LAN" is enabled.
