Programming Examples

Using Marker Delta Mode and Marker Minimum Search

double dMarkerAmplitude = 0.0; long lOpc =0L;

/* Open an GPIB session at address 18*/ viStatus=viOpenDefaultRM(&defaultRM); viStatus=viOpen(defaultRM,"GPIB0::18",VI_NULL,VI_NULL,&viESA); if(viStatus)

{

printf("Could not open a session to GPIB device at address 18!\n"); exit(0);

}

/*Clear the instrument*/ viClear(viESA);

/*Reset the instrument*/ viPrintf(viESA,"*RST\n");

/*Display the program heading */ printf("\n\t\t Marker Delta Program \n\n" );

/*Check for the instrument model number and route the 50MHz signal accordingly*/ Route50MHzSignal();

/*Set the analyzer to single sweep mode*/ viPrintf(viESA,"INIT:CONT 0\n");

/*Prompt the user for the start frequency*/ printf("\t Enter the Start frequency in MHz ");

/*The user enters the start frequency*/ scanf("%lf",&dStartFreq);

/*Prompt the user for the stop frequency*/ printf("\t Enter the Stop frequency in MHz ");

/*The user enters the stop frequency*/ scanf("%lf",&dStopFreq);

/*Set the analyzer to the values given by the user*/

viPrintf(viESA,"SENS:FREQ:STAR %lf MHZ \n;:SENS:FREQ:STOP %lf MHZ\n",dStartFreq,dStopFreq);

/*Trigger a sweep, wait for completion*/ viPrintf(viESA,"INIT:IMM;*WAI\n");

/*Set the marker to the maximum peak*/
