Chapter 2 — GPIB Overview

The MT8852B Bluetooth Test Set can be operated remotely through a General Purpose Interface Bus (GPIB) connection to a host computer. The MT8852B conforms to the IEEE488.1 and IEEE488.2 standards.

2-1 Requirements when using GPIB

A GPIB card, cable, and the associated control software are required to communicate with the MT8852B over the GPIB bus.

2-2 Syntax

The following rules must be adhered to when sending GPIB commands to the instrument.

1.An ASCII space must be present between the command mnemonic and the first parameter.

2.All subsequent parameters must be separated by commas (,).

3.Multiple commands may be sent on the same line, but each must be separated by a semicolon (;).

The conventions used are detailed in the table below.

Table 2-1. GPIB Syntax Rules

	Item	Meaning
		The parameters or characters within the angled brackets must be present.
	< >	Throughout this document the angled brackets are employed merely as a
		convention to help users interpret the commands. They must not be included in the
		command string when issuing commands over GPIB.
	ws	White space character.
	[ ]	Optional parameters. Do not include the square brackets in the command string.

,Parameter separator. All GPIB commands having more than one parameter must use the comma (,) separator between each parameter.

Message unit terminator. A GPIB command message can be made up of a number of command units separated by the semicolon, as seen in the following example.

;COMMAND param1a,param1b;COMMAND2 param2a

The mnemonics and all the parameters can use either upper or lower case characters unless specified otherwise.

2-1

GPIB Overview

2-3 Termination

All commands sent over the GPIB interface to the MT8852B must be terminated with either (or both) of the following:

End Of String (EOS):	The ‘\n’ or 0x0A character.
End Of message Indicator (EOI):	A hardware line on the GPIB interface bus.

2-4 Suffixes

Parameters containing floating-point values can use the E-0x convention or a suffix multiplier. The GPIB unit conventions specified by the IEEE have been implemented for the suffix units and multipliers. The suffix unit is always allowed but is not required and is shown in brackets where appropriate.

The following table lists the numeric suffixes for the MT8852B Bluetooth Test Set. Suffix units are optional and can be omitted.

GPIB 488.2 Registers

2-5 GPIB 488.2 Registers

The following diagram shows the GPIB event and status registers. The meaning of each bit is described below.

Status Byte Register and Service Request Enable Register

Figure 2-1. Status Byte and Service Request Enable Registers

Table 2-3. STB and SRE Bit Definitions

RQS/MSS When the Status byte is read via a Serial Poll operation this bit is RQS (Request Service). When the Status byte is read via the *STB? Command this bit is MSS (Master Summary Status). This bit has no function in the Service Request Enable Register.

(Request service) This bit is set when one of the other bits in the status byte is set and the corresponding bit in the Service Request Enable Register (SRE) has been set. When this bit is set an SRQ is indicated over the GPIB interface. The SRQ is cleared by a serial poll, the status byte returned to the controller and the bit that caused the SRQ is cleared.

(Master Summary Status) This bit is the inclusive OR of the bitwise combination (excluding bit 6) of the Status Byte register and the Service Request Enable register. Note that the *STB? Command does not alter the Status byte, nor will it clear an SRQ.

GPIB Overview

Table 2-4.

	ESB	(Event status bit) When a bit is set in the event register and the corresponding bit
		has been set in the event status enable register (ESE) the ESB bit in the status
		register is set.
	MAV	(Message available) This bit is always set when there is data available to be read
		out from the output buffer and it is cleared when the output buffer is empty.
	CHG	(Change indication) This bit is cleared at power ON initialisation, following a serial
		poll, or upon sending the *CLS command. This bit is set when one of the change
		bits has been set and the corresponding bit in the change status enable (CHE)
		register has been set.
	EPS	(EUT Power Status) This bit is cleared at power ON initialisation or upon sending
		the *CLS command. This bit is set when the EUT power matches the maximum or
		minimum power. Use the status command to read whether max or min was
		reached.
	ETF	(Equipment Test Fail) This bit is cleared at power ON initialisation or upon sending
		*CLS. This bit is set to indicate a test failure if the following conditions apply: One of
		the tests has failed (the instrument will set the appropriate bit in the ETF or EETF
		registers) and the appropriate bit within the ETE or EETE registers has been
		enabled by the user prior to running the test. See definitions of the ETF, EETF,
		ETE, EETE in this manual for more details.
	INS	(Instrument status) This bit is cleared on initialisation and when the *CLS command
		has been sent. This bit is set when one of the instrument status bits has been set
		and the corresponding bit in the instrument status enable (INE) register has been
		set.
		The Status Byte register is read via a Serial Poll or with the *STB? Command. It
	Note	cannot be written to directly by the user. The Service Request Enable Register is
		written to with the *SRE command and read with the *SRE? Command. It is
		cleared by *CLS.

	DDE	Device Dependent Error. The specific error can be found by using the ERRLST
		command.
	QYE	Query Error
	RQC	Request Control. GPIB controllers only.
	OPC	Operation Complete. When a program message that includes the *OPC command
		has been completed and the GPIB interface is idle with any responses read out of the
		output buffer this bit is set. For example, if the last command in a configuration
		sequence is *OPC, the OPC bit in the event status register is set when that
		configuration list has been completed.
		The Standard Event Status Register is read with the *ESR? Command. Reading
	Note	the ESR clears it. The Standard Events Status Enable Register is written to with
		the *ESE command and read with the *ESE? command. Both registers are
		cleared by *CLS.

GPIB Overview

2-6 GPIB over RS232

Version 1.1 or above of the control software supports the use of RS232 in addition to GPIB commands. Use the RS232 connector on the rear panel of the unit.

Hardware handshake CTS and RTS lines are used to control the flow of data in and out of the tester and must be available in the cable as hardware handshaking is always enabled. The RS232 cable used between the COM port on the PC and the connector on the rear of the MT8852B must be of a Null Modem type such as that supplied with the MT8852B itself.

The DTR and DSR lines are connected together within the tester. The MT8852B Bluetooth test set’s serial connector pin-outs are:

Pin Signal

1NOT USED

2Rx Data

3Tx Data

4DTR handshake signal

5Signal ground

6DSR handshake signal

7RTS handshake signal

8CTS handshake signal

9NOT USED

The serial interface baud rate can be set using the MT8852B “System Interfaces” menu under the menu. Available baud rates are; 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600 (default), 19200, 38400, 57600, and 115200. The other RS232 parameters are predefined as 8 bits, no parity and 1 stop bit and cannot be changed.

Commands are entered in the same manner as the GPIB interface, conforming to the GPIB command format. All GPIB commands are supported. There are some additional commands, specific to the serial interface that are prefixed with an exclamation mark (!). All GPIB type commands and command strings should be terminated with a new line character (0A hex). The special serial mode commands do NOT require a termination character.

Requested data is returned in the same format as GPIB, but with a preceding 'R' and a terminating new line character.

SRQs are available, and are output as an SRQ message 'S' followed by a terminating new line character. When the SRQ message has been received, an "!SPL" command (equivalent to the GPIB serial poll) can be issued. The tester will respond with the serial poll data message, which is a single character, proceeded by 'P' and terminated by a new line character.

A device clear message !DCL can be sent to clear the tester input and output message queues, and terminate any GPIB or serial actions pending.
