HP 437B EMULATION COMMANDS

GPIB OPERATION

val: 1 to 10

Remarks: The ML2430A Series can store up to 10 instrument configurations for con- venient recall. The configuration parameters stored are the same parame- ters the ML2430A Series stores in its own *SAV and *RCL native commands. Therefore, RC is equivalent to *RCL, and ST is equivalent to *SAV.

Selecting Register 0 always restores the previous power meter configura- tion, providing an expedient way to recover from an entry error.

RE

Set decimal point resolution

Syntax: RE<number>EN

val: 1, 2, or 3

Remarks: Set the number of decimal places displayed.

Example: To set the display resolution to 2 decimal places:

RE2EN

RF

Set the reference cal factor value for a table

Syntax: RF<table_number><cal_factor>%

table number: 0 to 9

cal factor: 50 to 150 %: terminator

Remarks: Set the reference cal factor value for a table. Since the ML2430A stores the cal factor table information in the sensor, this data must be saved to the sensor by using the ‘EX’ command or an additional command ‘SV’, or the data could be lost. The saving of the cal factor table data to the sensor can be done at the end of all updates to a particular table.

RH

Range hold

Syntax: RH

Remarks: Hold the power meter in the current range. The differences in sensor ranges must be taken into account when the ML2430 is being used to em- ulate the HP 437.
