663xB: Compatibility With the "A" Version Units
Question: Do the 6632B, 6633B and 6634B have the same programming language as the A version, SCPI or VXI
plug&play drivers? Will it interface to other products? How compatible are these?
Answer: All of the models in this family have two command sets: SCPI; and Compatibility (663xA-type). The
language format can be changed either by s/w command or from the front panel. When the unit is turned off, the
current language mode is stored in non-volatile memory. As a result, the unit will wake up in whatever language was
used last. This makes it easy to replace an A-version 663x Series with the B-version 663x Series. Software written
for the A-version will work with the B-version if the B-version’s language format is set for Compatibility mode.
