PguInit8110 user module
This user module initializes the pulse generator to a default setup.
Usage
status
= PguInit8110(char *
instr_id
);
status
Returned values are placed in the Analyze sheet:
•
0
: OK
•
-10000 (INVAL_INST_ID)
: The specified instrument ID does not exist
•
-10040 (HP8110_NOT_IN_KCON)
: No PGU was found in the system
configuration
•
-10041 (HP8110_NOT_INITED)
: The PGU was never initialized
•
-10042 (HP8110_PULSE_ERROR)
: There was an error during pulsing
•
-10090 (GPIB_ERROR_OCCURRED)
: A GPIB communications error
occurred
•
-10091 (GPIB_TIMEOUT)
: A time-out occurred during communications
•
-10100 (INVAL_PARAM)
: An invalid input parameter is specified
instr_id
The PGU (pulse generator) instrument ID: PGU
X
, where
X
is a number from 1
through 8 (configuration dependent); the PGU instrument ID effectively corresponds
to a single pulse generator channel
Details
The user module used by the
pgu1-init
UTM.
The
PguInit8110
user module initializes the Keysight 8110A pulse generator as follows:
•
Disables the output of the specified channel.
•
Resets (*
RST
) to ensure that all errors are cleared.
•
Sets the output polarity to NORMAL.
•
Sets the trigger count to 1.
•
Sets the trigger source to MANUAL.
•
Enables SINGLE PULSE mode.
•
Allows the rise/fall to be independently programmable.
•
Sets the pulse height to 0.2 V and base to 0 V.
•
Sets the rise/fall to 100e-9 s.
•
Sets the width to 300e-9 s.
•
Disables error checking.
