Controlling the Test Set and Making Measurements
Introduction
Introduction
The Agilent 87050A Option H15 is a “slave” instrument: a controller
must be used to control the test set. There are three ways in which the
test set can be controlled:
1. The controller can communicate to the network analyzer using GPIB
(HP-IB) commands, which then controls the test set by the parallel
connection.
2. The controller can control the test set directly by GPIB (HP-IB)
commands.
3. A network analyzer equipped with a parallel connection can control
the test set directly.
