or
HP-IL
Interface
INTRODUCTION
Chapter
9
Using
HP-113
Or
HP-IL
Interface
This
chapter
contains
programming
instructions
for
operating
the
analyzervia
HP-113 or
HP-IL
interfaces
.
The
HP-113
and
HP-IL
interface
capabilities
and
device-dependent
commands
are
identical
.
All
operations
that
can
be obtained
by
pressing
a
front-panel
keycan
also
be
obtained
by
using
the
analyzer
device-dependent
commands
when
they
are
sent
over an
HP-IB
or
HP-IL
interface
from
a
controller
.
This
chapter
provides
detailed
information
about
each
of
the
device-dependent
commands
and
how
these
commands
affect
the
analyzer
.
The
command
learn
strings of
the
HP
1630A/D
and
the
HP
1630G
are
different
because
the
1630A/D
uses
HP-IL
mass
storage
and
the
1630G
uses
HP-IB
mass
storage
.
Two
sections
are
provided
in
this
chapter
to
differentiate
the
command
sets
.
HP-113
AND
HP-IL
INTERFACE
CAPABILITIES
The
following
HP-113
and
HP-IL
interface
functionsare
implemented
in
the
analyzer
.
SERVICE
REQUEST
(SRQ)
-
Programmable
service
request
for
various
conditions
specified
in
the
Mask
Byte
(MB)
command
.
Reset
when
status
byte
read by
SERIAL
POLL
or via
SB
command
.
SERIAL
POLLING
-
The
serial poll
represents
the
unmasked
status
of
the
machine
and
is
identical to
the
SB1
response
.
Status
bits
are
unmasked
using
the
Mask
Byte
(MB)
command
.
Serial
polling
is
the
preferred
method
of
checking
machine
status
because
serial
polling
will
not
cause
the
analyzer
to
abort
any
currently
pending
output
.
The
"SB"
command
does
cause
such
aborts
.
PARALLEL
POLLING
-
Complete
parallel
polling capability
.
Sense
bit
of
ENABLE
message
is
used
to
determine
whether
a
service
request
is
indicated
by
a
1
or
0
on
the
specified
bit
.
Request
is
cleared
by
a
serial
poll
or
by
sending
SB1
.
GROUP
EXECUTE
TRIGGER
-
Executes
a
measurement
similar
to
pressing
the
RUN
key
.
REMOTE/LOCAL/LOCAL
LOCKOUT
-
Complete
capability
.
INTERFACE
CLEAR
-
Clears
the
interface to
an
untalk/unlisten
state
.
DEVICE
CLEAR
-
Aborts
any
interface
operation
and
clears
input/output
buffers
.
The
analyzer
will
abort
any
pending
output
if
it
receives
a
new
command
from
the
controller
before
it
has
been
addressed
to
send
its
output
.
For
example,
if
the
controller
commands
a
menu
change
in
the
analyzer
before
it
addressed
the
analyzer
to
talk,
the
analyzer
will
abort
its
status
byte
message
.
KEYBOARD
MNEMONICS
The
device-dependent
commands
for
keyboard
functions
are
implemented
in
a
mnemonic-per-keystroke
format
.
Table
9-1
lists
the
HP-IB
and
HP-IL
command
mnemonic
for
each
key
.
Any
key
mnemonic
can
be
followed
by
an
ASCII
number
that
indicates
how
many
times
to
repeat
that
key
.
For
example
"CD5"
will
cause
the
"Cursor
Down"
command
to
be
executed
five
times
.
Sending
the
command
"NX
10"
is
the
same
as
pressing
the
NEXT
key
ten
times
.
To
send
data
keys
(i
.e
.,
numeric
0123456789ABCDEFX
or
alphabetic
values)
enclose
the
ASCII
representations
of
those
keys
in
field
delimiters
.
For
example,
if
a
pattern
is
to
be
sent
after
positioning
the
cursor
to
a
particular
field,
send
the
pattern
in
field
delimiters,
i
.e
.,
OUTPUT
700
;
"(01
XX1533)"
.
Three
different
field
delimiters
are
allowed
:
",",
and
()
.
Use
the
same
delimiter
at
the
start
and
end
of
a
field
.
Mnemonics
can
be
sent
using
either
upper
case
or
lower
case
letters
.
Commands
mustbe
delimited
by
one
or
more
of
