Command Guidelines
If you have Agilent Technologies 8922M/S Option 010
Quotation
marks
“ ”, enclose command and string entries. Be sure to follow the correct syntax for using
quotations that are specific to your basic language.
Colons :, are used to separate keywords and show hierarchical relationship.
”RFANalyzer:FREQuency 935 MHz”
A Semicolon
and a Colon
;:, are used to separate two or more root level command statements on the same line.
”RFAN:INP ’RF IN/OUT’;:RFAN:AMPL1 −20 dBm”.
Semicolons ;, can also be used to condense command words on one line if the commands are equal, or
of decreasing hierarchy under the keyword. (The following example is equivalent to the
previous command statement, but the root level keyword :RFAN is removed by using
semicolons.)
”RFAN:INP ’RF IN/OUT’;AMPL1 −20 dBm”
Commas Are used to separate multiple parameter entries.
Angle
brackets
< >, enclose variable items that represent user choices (parameters) to be entered.
If you have Agilent Technologies 8922M/S Option 010
If you have the Agilent 8922M/S Option 010 Multi-Band Test System, you will have
access to some additional GPIB commands.
Refer to the Agilent 8922 Multi-Band User’s Guide for a full description of these
commands. The additional commands are either part of a current subsystem or are part of
the new Dual Band Control subsystem.
The Agilent 8922 Multi-Band User’s Guide gives a programming example of the Dual
Band Control GPIB commands.
