Getting Started With the HP E1432A
Other HP VEE example programs
There are several other example programs that you can examine in the same way that you looked at scope.vee. These programs are in the path \Hpe1432\examples\hpvee\ on a Microsoft Windows system
bsrcsine.vee (Burst SouRCe SINE)
This program is similar to scope.vee. It displays eight (rather than four) channels, with time record and FFT for each channel. It also turns on the source in burst sine mode and ramps up the source output. The user can specify the duty cycle, ramp rate, level of the source, and frequency of the source. This program works with HP E1432A’s which are equipped with the source option ID4.
bsrcrand.vee (Burst SouRCe RANDom)
This program is like bsrcsine.vee except the source is turned on in burst random mode.
frf_rand.vee. (Frequency Response Function RANDom)
This program displays the frequency response of four channels. One way to set up this example is to connect a cable between the channel 1 and channel 2 inputs. Then connect channel 3 to channel 1 through a “black box” containing the circuit to be tested (using a “T” on channel 1).
Channel 4 remains unconnected. On the display you will see a response for channel 2 over channel 1 (a flat response for the bare cable), and a response for channel 3 over channel 1 (representing the frequency response of the “unknown” circuit). Channel 4 will show a random signal since it has no input.
order.vee
This program can be used only with an HP1432A with the tachometer option. It takes four channels of data and displays two channels. It shows raw time domain data and resampled data for each rpm value. The raw data can then be processed with a program such as Matlab to make order ratio maps.
