Configuring the Power Save Function for the Display
During remote control operation, it is often unnecessary to display the measure-
ment results on screen. Although the command
SYSTem:DISPlay:UPDate
OFF
switches off the display of the measurement results, thus significantly
improving speed in remote control operation, the display itself and the back-
ground lighting in particular remain switched on.
If you also want to switch off the display itself, you must use the power save func-
tion by setting the response time in minutes prior to activation.
The display is reactivated immediately when you press a key on the instru-
ment's front panel.
Public SUB PowerSave()
CALL InstrWrite(analyzer, "DISPlay:PSAVe:HOLDoff 1")
'Set response time to 1 minute
CALL InstrWrite(analyzer, "DISPlay:PSAVe ON")
'Switch on Power Save function
