Technical data

The SENSe subsystems control the expected input signal. They correspond to the
SOURce subsystems. The INPut subsystems correspond to the OUTPut
subsystems; they are responsible for the electrical port connection.
N O T E
The inverted clock and data outputs track the standard outputs. For example, the
pattern generator's DATA OUT port tracks the DATA OUT port. Any changes to the
standard output automatically modifies the inverted output (and vice versa).
Therefore, only the commands of the standard outputs are documented here.
Besides the subsystems shown above, the following subsystems are available:
• STATus
This subsystem controls the SCPI-compatible status reporting structures.
IVI-COM Equivalent: IAgilentN490xStatus
• SYSTem
This subsystem controls functions such as general housekeeping and global
configurations. It controls also the installation and activation of licensed
options.
IVI-COM Equivalent: IAgilentN490xSystem
• TEST
This subsystem verifies specific hardware components for basic functionality.
IVI-COM Equivalent: IIviDriverUtility.SelfTest
All subsystems and commands are described in this chapter.

You can find the SCPI commands and their corresponding IVI-COM commands in
the online help:
1
Open the online help (Help Contents menu).
2
Open the Index tab and search for the root keyword, for example, SENSe[1], and
click on it.
3
Search in the reference area for the complete command and click on the
command.
A description of the command and both SCPI and IVI-COM syntax is displayed.
