GPIB OPERATION

FUNCTIONAL

GROUPS

 

SENSOR The SENSOR group commands select the data acquisition controls for the se- lected sensor.

SYSTEM The SYSTEM group commands control the overall functionality of the ML2430A Series Power Meter, including the system operation mode, cursor control, display configuration, sound, printing, battery control and status, rear panel configuration, graphics, system security, and system identity.

TRIGGER The TRIGGER group functions are used to program the triggering of measure- ment data. TRIGGER group commands are available in PROFILE operation mode, and in READOUT mode if the SENSORSETUPMODE submenu is set to

CUSTOM.

In CUSTOM, the channels are triggered simultaneously if the trigger conditions are set to 1 and 2. This guarantees the trigger conditions are the same, and therefore the readings are valid if taken at the same time.

Changes to the trigger configurations can be made using these GPIB commands regardless of the power meter operating mode, but will not come into play until the unit is configured to use triggers.
