8 Microwave Switch/Attenuator Driver
Remote Module Identifiers
A special channel numbering method exists for use with SCPI commands
that operate one or more banks of the remote module. This addressing
uses a non- existent channel number (00) to indicate the commands are
useful for all channel in a bank or all channels on a remote module.
The format of this special channel list is specified as:
<slot><rem><00>
where:
slot is the 34980A slot where the 34945A driver interface is installed,
and is a single digit in the range of 1 to 8.
rem is the remote module being controlled, and is a single digit in the
range of 1 to 8.
channel is non- existent channel number 00 on the remote module.
You may not use this special channel list in a range of channels.
The following commands use this form of channel addressing. Refer to the
Programmer’s Reference Help file for more details.

Drive Modes
Each remote module can drive the switches and attenuators using either
TTL or open collector drive methods. The TTL drive mode uses a
pull- down resistor on the output and drives a TTL high level when
asserted. The open collector drive provides a current path to ground
when asserted.
The drive mode is set on a per bank basis using the
ROUTe:RMODule:BANK:DRIVe:MODE command.
