in line with IEEE 488.2.
*IDN?
–
Identification Query
*IDN?
returns a string with information on the power sensor module’s identity (device identification
code). In addition, the version number of the installed firmware is indicated. The string for a power
sensor module of type R&S NRP-Z27/-Z37 has the following structure:
ROHDE&SCHWARZ,NRP-Zx7,<serial number>,<firmware version>
<serial number>
: Serial number in ASCII
<firmware version>
: Firmware version number in ASCII
*RST
–
Reset
*RST
sets the power sensor module to the default state, i.e. the default settings for all test parameters
are loaded.
*TRG
–
Trigger
*TRG
triggers a measurement. For this purpose, the power sensor module is in the
WAIT_FOR_TRIGGER
state and the source for the trigger event is set to
BUS
(
TRIGger:SOURce
BUS
).
*TST?
–
Self Test Query
*TST?
starts a selftest and returns 0 (no error found) or 1 (an error has occurred). The selftest
comprises the following functions:
•
RAM test
•
Operating voltages
•
Temperature measurement
•
Calibration data set
•
Noise
•
Zero-point offsets.
