The Site Master must first be set into “remote” mode for communication with a computer. Remote mode differs from normal repetitive sweep and single-sweep modes. During remote mode, the Site Master suspends normal operations and attends to the serial port. The front panel display indicates when the Site Master is in remote mode.

Once in remote mode, you send a series of control bytes and associated data to the Site Master. These control byte sequences command the Site Master to perform various functions and activities. The serial port supports virtually all features accessible from the keypad. The only exception is the printer, which requires connection to the same 9 pin connector on the Site Master rear panel.

To complete the communication session, send the control byte to exit remote mode. Site Master resumes normal operations. You may also exit the remote mode by using the ESCAPE/CLEAR key.

Cabling

Serial communications take place via the 9 pin connector on the back of the Site Master. The Site Master is a DTEtype serial device and therefore requires a “null modem” cable for communication with a computer, which is also a DTE device. We provide a suitable cable with your Site Master. (Anritsu part number 800-441)

Serial Communication Parameters

When turned on, the Site Master communicates at a default baud rate of 9600. It uses no parity bits, 8 data bits, and 1 stop bit (N-8-1). No hardware handshaking is used. The Set Baud Rate serial command Control Byte #197 (C5h) can be used to change the baud rate to other common baud rates. It can be reset by turning the Cell Master off.

Communications Error Checking

Since there is no hardware handshaking, byte level error handling must be done by the controlling program. The expected number of response bytes for each control byte (listed in the control byte description section of this manual) works well for responses coming from the Site Master. For data streams going to the Site Master, the “watch dog timer” protects against interrupted transmissions by aborting a control byte sequence if the inter-byte time limit is exceeded.

Parameter Validation

The Site Master validates input parameters for each control byte sequence. If the input parameters are out of range or invalid, the Site Master notifies the computer by sending Parameter Error Byte #224 (E0h). The Site Master discards the received data and waits for the next control byte.

Entering Remote Mode

Send the Enter Remote Mode Byte #69 (45h) to the Site Master to enter remote mode at the end of a sweep. Send the Enter Remote Mode Immediately byte #70 (46h) to enter remote mode in the middle of a sweep.

The Site Master’s serial port buffer is one byte wide. No internal buffer exists, so waiting for the unit’s response is essential. If the Site Master is not in remote, sending a second byte overwrites the original byte commanding it to go into remote. If you send control byte #69, you must wait until the end of the sweep. If you send control byte #70, the unit will enter remote mode as soon as it receives the byte. Note that this means that data stored for the current sweep may be incomplete.

Once you receive the response string from Site Master, you are in remote mode.

Exiting Remote Mode

Send the Exit Remote control byte #255 (FFh) to the Site Master. Site Master sends a response byte of 255 (FFh) then exits remote mode. Remote mode can also be exited by pressing the ESCAPE/CLEAR key.

Lifetime of Changes to Site Master Operating Parameters

System parameters changed during remote mode remain changed for normal operation. They are not automatically written to the non-volatile EEPROM. Turning off power erases the changed settings.

If you want the changes saved, you must save the change to one of the setup memories. Use either the run-time setup (location 0, which holds the power-on defaults) or one of the nine saved setups. See control byte #18 (12h) for details.

Write Cycle Limitation of EEPROM

The EEPROM, used to store calibrations, setups and traces has a guaranteed lifetime of at least 100,000 write cycles and an unlimited number of read cycles. The write cycle limitation is for a specific location. For example, you can store setup #1 100,000 times and setup #2 100,000 times, etc.

It is for this reason we do not automatically store the changed system parameters to EEPROM. Instead, we provide a means of changing the operating parameters independent of this limitation.

Be aware of the EEPROM write cycle limitation when programming the Site Master. Keep the number of write cycles to a minimum.

Documentation Conventions

Through this manual the following conventions will be observed:

Numeric Representation:

Hexadecimal numbers are represented with the suffix h. For example, the decimal number 255 is represented in hexadecimal as FFh. Binary numbers are represented with the suffix b. For example, the decimal number 2 is represented in binary as 10b. Decimal numbers are represented with the prefix # when referring to a control byte (command byte) and without a prefix or suffix in all other cases.

Bit Positions:

When enumerating bits in a byte, bit 0 will always be the least significant bit (LSB).

Control Byte Descriptions

Setup System

Description: Sets system status flags and switches. The current value of the flags can be obtained by executing command #29, Query System Setup, and parsing the values from the appropriate bytes. The Site Master acts on the entire byte. So, the state of each of the bits must be defined every time the command is issued. See control byte #29 (1Dh) response bytes 170 (VNA modes) and 275 and 276 (Spectrum Analyzer mode) for current Site Master configuration.

Set Site Master VNA Marker

Description: Sets an individual marker position and status in the current measurement mode.

The Site Master sets the position of a marker by its relative position on the graph. The lowest position is 0 at the start frequency (or distance). The highest position is the data point number at the stop frequency (or distance). For example, for a resolution of 130, the first frequency is at position 0. The last frequency is at 129.

To calculate the data point from a frequency (or distance) do the following: point = ( resolution – 1 ) * ( marker freq – start freq ) / ( stop freq – start freq )

See control byte #29 (1Dh) response bytes 44 to 55 for current frequency markers. See control byte #29 (1Dh) response bytes 138 to 149 for current distance markers. See control byte #29 (1Dh) response byte 162 for current marker on/off status.

Set Site Master VNA Single Limit – Control Byte #6 (06h)

Description: Sets the position and On/Off Status of the Single Limit Line for the VNA modes. See control byte #103 to set the single limit for the spectrum analyzer mode.

The single limit is a single, horizontal line. It can be set to On/Off in any Site Master mode. If Limit Beep is set to ON, the Site Master will give an error beep when sweep data appears above the limit line in SWR or Return Loss mode, or when sweep data appears below the limit line in Cable Loss mode.

The single limit and multiple limit types are mutually exclusive. That is, setting the single limit ON automatically turns multiple limit lines OFF. See control byte #112 (70h) for information about multiple limits.

See control byte #29 (1Dh) response bytes 56-59, and byte 164 for current Site Master configuration.

Bytes to Follow: 6 bytes

Notes:

Return Loss & Cable Loss: Limit should be sent as ( dB * 1000 ) Maximum value sent is 60000 which represents 60.00 dB Minimum value sent is 0 which represents 0.0 dB

SWR: Limit is in thousandths (of ratio), so it should be sent as ( ratio * 1000 ) Maximum value sent is 65530 which represents 65.53 Minimum value sent is 1000 which represents 1.00

Set DTF Parameter

Description: Sets Distance to Fault parameters.

Be aware using this control byte. The distance to fault parameters are all inter-related. Consequently, the control byte must change all of those parameters at the same time to properly set them.

Please refer to the Site Master User’s Guide for a detailed explanation of the factors influencing proper selection of DTF parameters.

Give Start & Stop Distances in hundred-thousandths of meter or foot (12.34 m would be sent as 1234000)

Relative Propagation Velocity is in hundred-thousandths (a Relative Propagation Velocity of 0.850 will be sent as

85000)

Cable Loss is in hundred-thousandths of dB/m or dB/ft (-0.345 dB/m would be sent as 34500)

Serial Port Echo On/Off

Description: Sets the serial port echo mode On/Off.

Serial Port Echo Mode uses the single sweep mode (see control byte #11 (0Bh)). At the end of each sweep cycle, the Site Master sends a Sweep Complete Byte #192 (C0h) to the serial port.

This mode activates once the Site Master exits from the remote mode. Serial Port Echo status can’t be saved to or recalled from saved setups. Cycling power resets the Serial port echo status to Off.

The Serial Port Echo Mode allows run-time handshaking between the Site Master and computer by doing the following:

1) Enter remote mode. Set Serial Port Echo Mode On. Exit remote mode.

2) The Site Master sweeps once and then sends the Sweep Complete Byte.

3) After you receive it. Enter remote mode. Recall sweep 0 (last sweep trace in RAM).

4) Exit remote mode. Send Sweep Triggering Byte #48 (30h) and wait for the next sweep cycle.

5) Repeat steps 2-4

Site Master VNA Single Sweep Mode On/Off – Control Byte #11 (0Bh)

Description: Enables or disables the Single Sweep Mode during Site Master VNA modes of operation. For Single Sweep Mode during the Spectrum Analyzer mode of operation see control byte #108 (6Ch)

Single Sweep Mode activates once the Site Master exits from the remote mode.

When the Site Master returns to local mode, the Site Master stops sweeping, waits for either the Run/Hold Key of the Site Master keypad or triggering byte #48 (30h).

Site Master also checks for the Enter Remote byte #69 (45h) at the end of each sweep. If present in the buffer, Site Master returns to remote mode.

Watch-Dog Timer On/Off – Control Byte #12 (0Ch)

Description: Enables or disables the Watch-dog timer. Default is Disabled.

The Site Master incorporates a watch-dog timer for higher reliability in serial communication. In selected control bytes (see control byte summary), the Site Master checks for the time interval between each byte received from the computer. If the time interval exceeds the set time limit (0.5 sec), the Site Master notifies the computer by sending Time-out Byte #238 (EEh). The Site Master discards the data it just received and then waits for the next control byte sequence.

Sequence Site Master Calibration

Description: Initiates a calibration step.

The Site Master must be calibrated to give accurate measurements.

The command sequence must be sent in correct order. i.e. Open -> Short -> Load. You can also abort the calibration by command – “Abort” before the command - “Load” is sent. Once command - “Load” is sent, calibration is completed, and the old calibration data is lost.

This command is designed to be executed step by step: open, short, load. Issuing any other command during this command sequence will cause undesired results.

Save System Setup

Description: Saves current system setup parameters to a specific setup store location.

The Site Master saves all parameters described in Query System Status - Control Byte #29 (1Dh), (except Serial Port Echo Status) to the specified store location. Store location 0 is the run-time setup of the Site Master. It holds the power-on defaults of the Site Master.

Bytes to Follow: 1 byte

0 – 10 for SWR Mode, Return Loss Mode, Cable Loss Mode and DTF Mode 0 – 5 for Spectrum Analyzer Mode (S332D only) 0 – 5 for Power Meter Mode (with Option 29 only) 0 – 5 for T1/E1 Modes (with Option 50 only)

Recall System Setup – Control Byte #19 (13h)

Description: Recalls system setup parameters from a specific store location. Storage locations depend on the measurement mode of the current setup. When the current mode is Spectrum Analyzer, Spectrum Analyzer setups (1-5) can be recalled. When the current mode is one of the Site Master VNA modes (SWR, RL, CL, DTF), one of the 10 VNA mode setups can be recalled. When the current mode is T1/E1, one of the T1/E1 setups can be recalled (1-5).

The Site Master recalls all parameters described in Query System Status - Control Byte #29 (1Dh), (except Serial Port Echo Status) from the specified store location. The recalled setup does not automatically become the power-on runtime setup when exiting remote. Therefore, a call to #29 will not display the parameters in that setup.

You may want to save the recalled setup as the run-time setup by saving it to setup location 0 (which holds the power-on runtime setup). See control byte #18 (12h) for details.

OBSOLETE: Query System Status

This command exists for backward compatibility with the S33xC models. Features new to the S33xD models are not available here. To access the new features use Control Byte #29 (1Dh).

Description: Queries the Site Master for current system settings.

The current state of the Site Master represents the state after the last successful remote control operation. For example, change the start frequency to another valid frequency while in remote mode, then execute control byte #20. The new start frequency will be returned in bytes 4-7, even though no sweep has been performed with that frequency.

Query System Status

– Control Byte #29 (1Dh)

This command is new to the S33xD. Use it instead of Control Byte #20 to access the new features.

Description: Queries the Site Master for current system settings. Unlike Control Byte #20, this command returns only data that is valid for the active mode, plus system settings, such as the defined printer.

The current state of the Site Master represents the state after the last successful remote control operation. For example, change the start frequency to another valid frequency while in remote mode, then execute control byte #29. The new start frequency will be returned in the defined bytes, even though no sweep has been performed with that frequency.

Sweep Data Echo On/Off

Description: Sets the sweep data echo mode On/Off.

Sweep Data Echo Mode behaves much like the Serial Port Echo Mode (see Control Byte #10). It automatically puts the unit into single sweep mode. At the end of each sweep cycle, the Site Master sends a Sweep Complete Byte #192 (C0h) to the serial port. At this time, sweep data can be queried (see Control Byte #33) without having to enter remote mode first or exit remote mode when done. Depending on the value of the second following byte, the next sweep can be automatically triggered after the sweep data has been sent.

This mode activates once the Site Master exits from the remote mode. Sweep Data Echo status can’t be saved to or recalled from saved setups. Cycling power resets the Sweep Data Echo status to Off.

The Sweep Data Echo Mode allows run-time handshaking between the Site Master and computer by doing the following:

83

www.valuetronics.com

– Control Byte #49 (31h)

1) Enter remote mode. Set Sweep Data Echo Mode On. Exit remote mode.

2) The Site Master sweeps once and then sends the Sweep Complete Byte.

3) After you receive it: Recall sweep 0 (last sweep trace in RAM).

4) If using auto triggering, repeat steps 2-3. If using manual triggering, go to step 5.

5) Send Sweep Triggering Byte #48 (30h) and wait for the next sweep cycle.

6) Repeat steps 2-5.

Note: To execute commands other than #33, you must use the traditional Enter Remote, Send Commands, Exit Remote communication sequence.
