Remote Control Overview
RSA3000E can be connected to the PC via the USB or LAN interface to set up
communication and realize remote control through the PC. The remote control can
be realized by using SCPI (Standard Commands for Programmable Instruments)
commands. It can be realized through the following two methods:
1.
User-defined programming
You can program and control the instrument by using the SCPI commands on
the basis of NI-VISA (National Instrument – Virtual Instrument Software
Architecture) library. For details about the SCPI commands and programming,
refer to
RSA3000E Programming Guide
.
2.
PC software
You can use the PC software (Ultra Sigma) to send the SCPI commands to
remotely control the instrument.
This Chapter introduces in details how to use Ultra Sigma to send commands through
each kind of interface to control the analyzer. Please refer to Ultra Sigma help
documentation to install the software and the required components correctly. You
can download the latest version of the software from www.rigol.com.
Note: When the instrument is in remote mode, the front panel keys (except the
Power key
and Esc) are locked. At this time, you can press Esc to exist the
remote mode.
