AM700 Audio Measurement Set Programmer Manual
xxi
Preface
This manual is for the programmer who is writing remote control programs for the
AM700 Audio Measurement Set.
Manual Content
H Getting Started provides information about the remote control capabilities of
the AM700 Audio Measurement Set. This information includes the IEEE 488.1
interface function implemented, the IEEE 488.2 status reporting commands, a
description of the rear panel remote connectors, how to configure the AM700 for
remote control, and how to connect printers.
Additionally, a SCPI model of the AM700 is developed to show how SCPI
commands are used to control the AM700 operations.
H SCPI Conformance Information describes the SCPI subsystems implemented
in the AM700 and provides some background on what SCPI is and is not. A list
of references related to the standards tested by the AM700 is also provided in
this section.
H AM700 SCPI Commands starts with a list of the IEEE mandated commands,
a list of the SCPI required commands, and information on optional commands.
The SCPI command syntax is described, and an explanation of the command
notations used in this manual is given. That introductory material is followed by
a complete set of the SCPI commands that the AM700 responds to in alphabet-
ical order. How the commands are used is explained in some detail along with
the query, if there is one, and explanatory examples.
H Examples provides information on how to write a function and gives a small
sample function program as an example of how a function might be used. How
to run a function and how to make a timed functions are described. A short
description of Tcl commands that were added or changed, and their limitations as
used in functions is also provided in this section.
