Remote Control

Chapter1 Remote Control

1.1 Overview

This chapter will provide following remote configuration introductions:

⚫ Command format ⚫ Data format ⚫ Remote Operation

1.2 Command type

Two command types for SCPI: common command and subsystem

⚫ Common command is basically irrelevant to specific operation, however, it

controls overall functionality of the instrument, such as reset, status and synchronization. All common commands are triliteral commands marked with asterisk: *RST *IDN?*SRE.

⚫ The subsystem command executes specified instrument functions. They

are organized into a reverse tree structure with root on the top. A part of subsystem command tree is shown in the following chart, with which you can obtain commands from different paths. See the following chart for part command tree.

Multiple commands in a message

Several SCPI commands can be merged and sent as a single message with one information terminator.

Two aspects shall be considered when sending several commands in a single

message:

⚫ Commands in a message are separated by a semicolon. ⚫ Head paths influence how the instrument interprets commands.

We consider the head path as a string which will be inserted in front of every command of a message. As for the first command of a message, the head path is a null string; for each subsequent command, the head path is a string which is defined to form the current command until and including the head of the last colon separator. A message with two combined commands Example: CURR:LEV 3;PROT:STAT OFF The example indicates the effect of semicolon and explains the concept of head path. Since the head path is defined to be "CURR" after "curr: lev 3", the head of

the second command, "curr", is deleted and the instrument explains the second command as:

CURR:PROT:STAT OFF

Remote Control

If "curr" is explicitly included in the second command, it is semantically wrong. Since combining it with the head path will become "CURR:CURR:PROT:STAT

OFF", resulting in wrong command.

Movement in the subsystem

In order to combine commands in different subsystems, it is required to set the head path of message as a null string. If a command is started by a colon, the operation will discard all current head paths. For example, you may apply the following root specification to remove the output protection and inspect the status of operation status register in a message. PROTection:CLEAr;:STATus:OPERation:CONDition? The following command indicates how to combine commands from different subsystems as if in the same subsystem: POWer:LEVel 200;PROTection 28; :CURRent:LEVel 3;PROTection:STATe ON

Note to use the optional head LEVel to maintain path in the voltage and current subsystems and use the root specification to move among subsystems.

Including common command

You can combine the common command and subsystem command in the same message and consider the common command as a message unit, and separate it by a semicolon (separator of message unit). Common commands will not influence the head path; you can insert them into any place of the message. VOLTage:TRIGgered 17.5;:INITialize;*TRG OUTPut OFF;*RCL 2;OUTPut ON IT872X-3X SCPI Communication Protocol 17

Case sensitivity

Common commands and SCPI commands are case insensitive: you may use upper or lower case or both, such as:

*RST = *rst :DATA? = :data? :SYSTem:PRESet = :system:preset

Long or short format

A SCPI command word can be sent in short or long format. The command subsystem table in the Chapter 5 provides long-format words. However, short

command words are expressed in uppercase characters: :SYSTem:PRESet long format :SYST:PRES short format :SYSTem:PRES combination of long and short formats Note that every command word must only be long or short format, and the long and short command words cannot be interleaved. For example: :SYSTe:PRESe

is an illegal command word which will cause an error. This command will not be

executed.

Check

Observe the following query alert:

⚫ To set a proper number of variables for the returned data, for example, if

you are reading a measurement sequence, you must provide fractal dimension to the sequence according to measurement number stored in the measurement cache.

⚫ Read back all query results before sending any command to the instrument.

Remote Control

Otherwise an error of query interrupt will occur and missing data will not be sent back.

1.3 Command format

Formats for command display are as follows:

[SOURce[1|2]:]VOLTage:UNIT {VPP|VRMS|DBM} [SOURce[1|2]:]FREQuency:CENTer {<frequency>|MINimum|MAXimum|DEFault} Based on the command syntax, most commands (and certain parameters) are expressed in both upper and lower cases. Upper case refers to abbreviation of commands. Shorter program line may send commands in abbreviated format. Long-format commands may be sent to ensure better program readability. For example, both formats of VOLT and VOLTAGE are acceptable in the above syntax statements. Upper or lower case may be used. Therefore, formats of VOLTAGE, volt and Volt are all acceptable. Other formats (such as VOL and VOLTAG) are invalid and will cause errors.

⚫ Parameter options with given command strings are included in the brace

({ }). The brace is not sent along with command strings.

⚫ Vertical stripes (|) separate several parameter options with given command

strings. For example, {VPP|VRMS|DBM} indicates that you may assign "APP", "VRMS" or "DBM" in the above commands. Vertical stripes are not sent along with command strings.

⚫ Angle brackets (< >) in the second example indicates that a value must be

assigned to the parameter in the brace. For example, the parameter in the angle bracket is <frequency> in the above syntax statements. Angle brackets are not sent along with command strings. You must assign a value (such as "FREQ:CENT 1000") to the parameter, unless you select other options displayed in the syntax (such as "FREQ:CENT MIN").

⚫ Some syntax elements (such as nodes and parameters) are included in

square brackets ([ ]). It indicates that these elements can be selected and omitted. Angle brackets are not sent along with command strings. If no value is assigned to the optional parameters, the instrument will select a default value. In the above examples, "SOURce[1|2]" indicates that you may refer to source channel 1 by "SOURce" or "SOURce1" or "SOUR1" or "SOUR". In addition, since the whole SOURce node is optional (in the square bracket), you can refer to the channel 1 by omitting the whole SOURce node. It is because the channel 1 is the default channel for SOURce language node. On the other hand, if you want to refer to channel 2, "SOURce2" or "SOUR2" must be used in the program line.

Colon (:)

It is used to separate key words of a command with the key words in next level. As shown below: APPL:SIN 455E3,1.15,0.0 In this example, APPLy command assigns a sine wave with frequency of 455 KHz, amplitude of 1.15 V and DC offset of 0.0 V.

Semicolon (;)

It is used to separate several commands in the same subsystem and can also minimize typing. For example, to send the following command string: TRIG:SOUR EXT; COUNT 10 has the same effect as sending the following two commands: TRIG:SOUR EXT

Remote Control

TRIG:COUNT 10

Question mark (?)

You can insert question marks into a command to query current values of most parameters. For example, the following commands will trigger to set the count as 10: TRIG:COUN 10 Then, you may query count value by sending the following command: TRIG:COUN? You may also query the allowable minimum or maximum count as follows: TRIG:COUN?MIN TRIG:COUN?MAX

Comma (,)

If a command requires several parameters, then a comma must be used to separate adjacent parameters.

Space

You must use blank characters, [TAB] or [Space] to separate parameters with key words of commands.

Generic commands (*)

Execute functions like reset, self inspection and status operation. Generic commands always start with a asterisk (*) and occupy 3 character sizes, including one or more parameters. Key words of a command and the first parameter are separated by a space. Semicolon (;) can separate several commands as follows: *RST; *CLS; *ESE 32; *OPC?

Command terminator

Command strings sent to the instrument must end with a <Newline> (<NL>) character. IEEE-488 EOI (End or Identify) information can be used as <NL> character to replace termination command string of <NL> character. It is acceptable to place one <NL> after a <Enter>. Termination of command string always resets current SCPI command path to root level.

NOTE

As for every SCPI message with one query sent to the instrument, the instrument will use a <NL> or newline sign (EOI) to terminate response of return. For example, if "DISP:TEXT?" is sent, <NL> will be placed after the returned data string to terminate response. If an SCPI message includes several queries separated by semicolon (such as "DISP?;DISP:TEXT?"), <NL> will terminate response returned after response to the last query. In all cases, the program must read <NL> in response before another command is sent to the instrument, otherwise errors will be caused.

1.4 Data type

SCPI language defines several data types used for program message and response messages.

⚫ Numerical parameter ⚫ Commands requiring numerical parameters support the notations of all

common decimal notations, including optional signs, decimal points, scientific notation, etc. Special values of numerical parameters are also

Remote Control

acceptable, such as MIN, MAX and DEF. In addition, suffixes for engineering units can also be sent together with numerical parameters (including M, k, m or u). If the command accepts only some specific values, the instrument will automatically round the input parameters to acceptable values. The following commands require numerical parameters of frequency value: [SOURce[1|2]:]FREQuency:CENTer {<Frequency>|MINimum|MAXimum}

⚫ Discrete parameter ⚫ Discrete parameters are used for settings with limited number of

programming values (such as IMMediate, EXTernal or BUS). They can use short and long format like key words of commands. They may be expressed in both upper and lower case. The query response always returns uppercase parameters in short format. The following commands require discrete parameters in voltage unit: [SOURce[1|2]:]VOLTage:UNIT {VPP|VRMS|DBM}

⚫ Boolean parameter ⚫ Boolean parameters refer to true or false binary conditions. In case of false

conditions, the instrument will accept "OFF" or "0". In case of true conditions, the instrument will accept "ON" or "1". In query of Boolean settings, the instrument will always return "0" or "1". Boolean parameters are required by the following commands: DISPlay {OFF|0|ON|1}

⚫ ASCII string parameters ⚫ String parameters may actually include all ASCII character sets. Character

strings must start and end with paired quotation marks; and single quotation marks or double quotation marks are both allowed. Quotation mark separators may also act as one part of a string, they can be typed twice without any character added between them. String parameter is used in the following command: DISPlay:TEXT <quoted string> For example, the following commands display message of "WAITING..." (without quotation marks) on the front panel of the instrument.

DISP:TEXT "WAITING..." Single quotation marks may also be used to display the same message. DISP:TEXT 'WAITING...'

1.5 Remote Operation

There are four types of communication interfaces available:USB,Ethernet,GPIB and RS232.You can choose any one of them to communicate with a PC.

RS-232 Interface

RS232 interface:use a cable with two COM interface（DB9）to connect power meter and PC. It can be activated by menu key on the front panel.All SCPI commands are available through RS-232 programming. ⚫ RS-232 data format

The RS-232 data is a 10-bit word with one start bit and one stop bit. The number of start and stop bits is not programmable.

⚫ Baudrate

Available baudrate:4800 9600 19200 38400 57600 115200

⚫ RS-232 connection

The RS-232 serial port can be connected to the serial port of a controller (i.e., personal computer) using a straight through RS-232 cable terminated with DB-9 connectiors. Do not use a null modem cable. Table 2－2 shows the pinout for the connector.

If your computer uses a DB-25connector for the RS-232interface, you will

Remote Control

need a cable or adapter with a DB-25 connector on one end and a DB-9 connector on the other, wired straight through(not null modem).

RS-232 troubleshooting:

If you are having trouble communicating over the RS-232 interface,check the following: The computer and the power meter must be configured for the same baudrate, parity, number of data bits,and flow control options. Note that the eledtronic load is configured for 1 start bit and 1stop bit (these values are fixed). The correct interface cables or adapters must be used, as described under RS-232 connector. Note that even if the cable has the proper connectors for your system,the internal wiring may be incorrect. The interface cable must be connected to the correct serial port on your computer (COM1, COM2,etc.).

Communication setting

Before communication operation, please make sure that the following parameters of electronic load match that of PC. Baud rate :9600(4800、9600、19200、38400、57600、115200). You can enter system menu through panel to set communication baud rate. Data bit:8 Stop bit:1 Parity:(none,even,odd) EVEN:: eight data bits with even parity ODD::eight data bits with odd parity NONE: : eight data bits without parity

Start Bit

8 Data Bits

Parity=None

Stop Bit

USB interface

Use Type A to Type B USB cables to connect the power meter. The USB interface capabilities of the power meter are described below:

⚫ The interface is IEEE488.2 standard USB488 interface ⚫ The interface accepts REN_CONTROL 、 GO_TO_LOCAL 、

LOCAL_LOCKOUT request.

⚫ The interface accepts MsgID = TRIGGER USBTMC command message

and forwards TRIGGER requests to the function layer.

The USB488 device capabilities of the power meter are described below:

⚫ The device understands all mandatory SCPI commands. ⚫ The device is SR1 capable. ⚫ The device is RL1 capable.

Remote Control

⚫ The device is DT1 capable.

GPIB interface

First conncet GPIB port of power meter to GPIB card of PC. They must be sufficient contact and tighten the screws. And then set address. The address can be set from 0 to 30.

LAN interface

Use a network cable to connect PC through LAN interface of the power meter.

⚫ IP mode

MANU: manually set IP address, subnet mask, default gateway, etc. DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) DHCP refers to a protocol that temporarily assigns necessary information to PCs connected to the Internet. If the network is provided with an available DHCP server, the server will automatically assign information (IP address, subnet mask and default gateway) to PCs and other equipment connected to the network. IT9120 series cannot use DHCP unless the network is provided with a DHCP server. Please ask your network administrator DHCP if DHCP is available.

⚫ IP Address

IP addresses assigned to IT9120 series can be set. Default address is

192.168.000.000.

 IP address refers to ID assigned by the network to each equipment

(Internet or enterprise Intranet).

 IP address refers to four 32-bit values within 0 - 255 which are separated by

decimal points, such as [192.168.111.24].

 Please ask the network administrator to provide an IP address.  Use DHCP network to automatically set the IP address.

⚫ Subnet masksetting

The mask used when subnet website is determined from an IP address may be set. Default address is 255.255.255.255.  Vast TCP/IP networks like Internet are often divided into several small

networks, i.e. subnets. The subnet mask is used to identify how many digits of the 32-digit values in the IP address belong to the subnet address. The part beyond the network address is used to identify the host number of each PC connected to the network.

 Ask your network administrator about values of subnet mask.  Use DHCP network to automatically set the subnet mask.

⚫ Gatewaysetting

IP address of gateway may be set to communicate with equipment in other network (default gateway). Default address is 192.168.000.000.  The default gateway controls data exchange between networks and

protocols to ensure smooth data transmission.

 Ask your network administrator about values of default gateway. It is

possible that the setting is unnecessary.

Use DHCP network to automatically set the default gateway.

Status Register Commands

Chapter2 Status Register Commands

IT9120 series has two kinds of status register:Operation status register and

Query status register.Using status register’s commands can set or query status

Standard Event Register

Event register is a kind of read-only memory.It is used to save the current execution situation of power meter.Event register’s data applies latch format,once the data is saved,the following data will be ignored.Sending command *RST or restart the power meter will not change the datas in event register.But if query the event register or sending clear command *CLS,the datas will be cleared automatically. The standard event register includes following status:output status,command syntax error,command execution error,selftest or calibration error,query error etc.
