GPIB Command Processor Console
Write Commands
Once the GPIB Command Processor Console is open, commands can
remotely control the external Test Set I/O connector by sending the following:
address: a integer number
data: a integer number
Address and data are separated by a comma. Commands should be separated by a new line, or
carriage return.
For example:
CONT:EXT:TEST:DATA <address>,<data>
CONT:EXT:TEST:DATA 0,0
Example: CONT:EXT:TEST:DATA 0,0
Read Commands
address: a integer number
Address is entered, data value will be returned. Commands should be executed with a carriage
return (enter).
For example:
CONT:EXT:TEST:DATA? <address>
CONT:EXT:TEST:DATA? 0
Example: CONT:EXT:TEST:DATA? 0
This command reads the decimal equivalent of the binary data from the specified address.
The example shown above illustrates address is 0 and the returned data is 8191. Refer to
Table 16 on page 62.
