SCPI Remote Trace
The remote trace functionality allows you to trace input and output strings at the
remote control interface of the R&S
SMA100B, see
Chapter 11.9, "Tracing SCPI Com-
mands and Messages Exchanged via the LXI Web Browser Interface"
A recorded trace (message log) can be evaluated directly in the dialog. Use the high-
lighting and navigation functions provided by the lower toolbar to locate error mes-
sages and messages containing arbitrary search strings. You can also export the mes-
sage log to a
*.csv
file and evaluate the file using a suitable program.
To trace and display messages, switch on "logging" and "live mode" in the toolbar.
Toolbars
The toolbar at the top of the dialog provides basic settings and functions.
●
"Live mode" / "logging": If logging is switched on, messages are traced. They are
stored in an internal database and can be displayed upon request, using the
refresh button (live mode off) or they can be displayed automatically (live mode
on).
●
"Filter": applies a filter to columns and/or rows when working (live mode off)
●
"Refresh": reads the message log from the internal database and displays it
●
"Download": stores the SCPI trace log to a
*.csv
file
