Remote operation
The standard 8568B operates on the interface bus (GP-IB).
All analyzer control settings (with the exception of VIDEO
TRIGGER LEVEL, FOCUS, ALIGN, INTENSITY, FREQ ZERO, AMPTD
CAL, and LINE power) are remotely programmable. Function
values, marker frequency/amplitude, and traces may be output;
CRT labels and graphics may be input.
LCL
Returns analyzer to local control, if not locked out by controller.
Service request
SHIFT r calls an GP-IB request for service.
Interface codes
SH-l, AH1, T6, L4, SR1, RL1, PPO, DC1, DT1, CO, E1.
Options
All specifications are identical to the standard 8568B except as noted.
