GPIB Message

This section describes IEEE -488.1 defined messages and their affect on

Reference

instruments installed in the mainframe. The examples shown are specifically for

 

HP 9000 Series 200/300 computers using BASIC language. Any IEEE -488

 

controller can send these messages; however, the syntax may be different from

 

that shown here.

Go To Local (GTL)

Places an instrument in local state.

Comments

• Refer to the Local Lockout message, later in this chapter, for information

 

on how GTL affects front panel lockout.

 

Examples

LOCAL 7

Sets GPIB remote enable line

 

 

false (all instruments go to

 

 

local). (You must now execute

 

 

REMOTE 7 to return to remote

 

 

mode).

 

LOCAL 70900

Issues GPIB GTL to System

 

 

Instrument. (The instrument

will return to remote mode when it is listen addressed.)

Group Execute Trigger (GET)

Comments

Executing a group execute trigger will trigger an instrument assuming the following conditions are true:

The instrument’s trigger source is set to Bus (TRIG:SOUR BUS command), and:

The instrument is in the Wait For Trigger state, and:

The instrument is addressed to listen (can be done by sending any

command, the REMOTE 709ss (ss = secondary address) command, or with the LISTEN command).

For instruments in an Agilent E1300B/E1301B Mainframe, only one instrument at a time can be programmed to respond to GET. This is because only one instrument can be addressed to listen at any one time.

Example

10 OUTPUT 70900;"TRIG:SOUR BUS"

Sets trigger source to bus

 

20 OUTPUT 70900;"INIT:IMM"

Places System Instrument’s

 

 

Pacer in Wait For Trigger state

 

30 TRIGGER 70900

Triggers Pacer

 

40 END

 

Interface Clear (IFC)

Unaddresses all instruments in the mainframe and breaks any bus handshaking

 

in progress.
