Command Set
Organization
The command set for the HP 1650B/51B logic analyzer is divided into 17
separate groups: common commands, system commands and 15 sets of
subsystem commands. Each of the 17 groups of commands is described in
the following chapters. Each of the chapters contain a brief description of
the subsystem, a set of syntax diagrams for those commands, and finally,
the commands for that subsystem in alphabetical order. The commands
are shown in the longform and shortform using upper and lowercase
letters. For example,
AUToload
indicates that the
longform
of the
command is
AUTOLOAD
and the shortform of the command is AUT.
Each of the commands contain a description of the command and its
arguments, the command syntax, and a programming example.
Subsystems
There are 15 subsystems in this instrument. In the command tree (figure
4-l) they are shown as branches, with the node above showing the name of
the subsystem. Only one subsystem may be selected at a time. At power
on, the command parser is set to the root of the command tree, and
therefore no subsystem is selected.
The 15 subsystems in the HP 1650B/51B are:
SYSTem
-
controls some basic functions of the instrument.
MMEMory
-
provides access to the internal disk drive.
DLISt
-
allows access to the dual listing function of two state
analyzers.
WLISt
-
allows access to the mixed (timing/state) functions.
MACHine
-
controls the machine-level functions and allows access
to the instrument configuration subsystems.
SFORmat
-
allows access to the state format functions.
STRace
-
allows access to the state trace functions.
SLISt
-
allows access to the state listing functions.
SWAVeform
-
allows access to the state waveforms functions.
SCHart
-
allows access to the state chart functions.
COMPare
-
allows access to the compare functions.
TFORmat
-
allows access to the timing format functions.
TTRace
-
allows access to the timing trace functions.
TWAVeform
-
allows access to the timing waveforms functions.
SYMBol
-
allows access to the symbol specification functions.
