Application Programs

This chapter contains several remote interface application programs to

help you develop programs for your own application. Chapter 4, “Remote

Interface Reference,” starting on page 125, lists the syntax for the

SCPI

(Standard Commands for Programmable Instruments) commands

available to program the function generator.

BASIC Language Programs

All of the BASIC example programs in this chapter were developed and

tested on an HP 9000 Series 300 controller. Each device on the

GPIB

(IEEE-488) interface must have a unique address. You can set the

function generator’s address to any value between 0 and 30. The current

address is displayed momentarily on the front panel when you turn on the

function generator.

The

GPIB (IEEE-488) address is set to “10” when the function generator

is shipped from the factory. The example programs in this chapter

assume an

GPIB address of 10. When sending a command over the

remote interface, you append this address to the

GPIB interface’s select

code (normally “7”). For example, if the select code is “7” and the device

address is “10”, the combination is “710”.

C Language Programs

All of the C Language example programs in this chapter are written for

the 82335 GPIB Interface Card using the GPIB Command Library for C.

Unless otherwise noted, the library functions used in the example

programs are compatible with the

ANSI C standard.

All of the C Language programs were compiled (and tested) using the

following compilers:

 Microsoft

QuickC

Version 2.0

 Borland

Turbo C

++ Version 1.0
