PSA Programming Examples
Using LabVIEW
®
6 to Make an EDGE GSM
Measurement
This is a LabVIEW 6 example that uses SCPI commands instead of the
instrument driver. It demonstrates reading ASCII trace points of entire
EDGE waveform data in the Power Vs. Time measurement over LAN.
This program uses the optional GSM/EDGE personality in the PSA
Series Spectrum Analyzers and in the E4406A Vector Signal Analyzer.
The vi file (epvt.vi) can be found on the Documentation CD.
This example:
1. Opens a VXI 11.3 Lan connection to the instrument
2. Changes the data format to ASCII.
3. Initiates a power vs. time measurement and reads the results.
4. The comma separated ASCII results string is converted to an array
of values.
