DIAGnostic

The DIAGnostic subsystem contains instrument-specific commands is are not recommended for general programming. For the E1470A, the DIAG subsystem allows you to open/close individual relays and query individual relays.

Subsystem Syntax DIAGnostic

:CLOSe <relay>{,<relay> ...} :CLOSe? <relay>{,<relay>...} :OPEN <relay>{,<relay>...} :OPEN? <relay>{,<relay>...} :RELAY?

DIAGnostic:CLOSe

DIAGnostic:CLOSe <relay>{,<relay>...} closes individual relays on the E1470A. Since these are Form C relays, “closed” means the relay is “set” (COMMON to NO).

Closing Relays. To close single relays, use DIAG:CLOS abc. To close

 

multiple relays, use DIAG:CLOS abc,def,ghi,... etc.

 

80 Relays Maximum. The E1470A has 80 relays. Setting more than 80

 

relay numbers causes error: -108, “Parameter not allowed”.
