following requirements apply to
Rohde & Schwarz products:
prescribed operating position is always with
the housing floor facing down, IP protection
2X, pollution severity 2, overvoltage
category 2, use only in enclosed spaces,
max. operation altitude max. 2000 m.
Unless specified otherwise in the data
sheet, a tolerance of ±10% shall apply to
the nominal voltage and of ±5% to the
nominal frequency.
2. Applicable local or national safety
regulations and rules for the prevention of
accidents must be observed in all work
performed. The product may be opened
only by authorized, specially trained
personnel. Prior to performing any work on
the product or opening the product, the
product must be disconnected from the

replacements of parts, maintenance or
repair must be carried out only by technical
personnel authorized by Rohde & Schwarz.
Only original parts may be used for
replacing parts relevant to safety (e.g.
power switches, power transformers,
fuses). A safety test must always be
performed after parts relevant to safety
have been replaced (visual inspection, PE
conductor test, insulation resistance
measurement, leakage current
measurement, functional test).
3. As with all industrially manufactured goods,
the use of substances that induce an
allergic reaction (allergens, e.g. nickel)
such as aluminum cannot be generally
excluded. If you develop an allergic
reaction (such as a skin rash, frequent
sneezing, red eyes or respiratory
difficulties), consult a physician immediately
to determine the cause.
1171.0000.42-02.00 Sheet 2
Safety Instructions
4. If products/components are mechanically
and/or thermically processed in a manner
that goes beyond their intended use,
hazardous substances (heavy-metal dust
such as lead, beryllium, nickel) may be
released. For this reason, the product may
only be disassembled, e.g. for disposal
purposes, by specially trained personnel.
Improper disassembly may be hazardous to
your health. National waste disposal
regulations must be observed.
5. If handling the product yields hazardous
substances or fuels that must be disposed
of in a special way, e.g. coolants or engine
oils that must be replenished regularly, the
safety instructions of the manufacturer of
the hazardous substances or fuels and the
applicable regional waste disposal
regulations must be observed. Also
observe the relevant safety instructions in
the product documentation.
6. Depending on the function, certain products
such as RF radio equipment can produce
an elevated level of electromagnetic
radiation. Considering that unborn life
requires increased protection, pregnant
women should be protected by appropriate
measures. Persons with pacemakers may
also be endangered by electromagnetic
radiation. The employer is required to
assess workplaces where there is a special
risk of exposure to radiation and, if
necessary, take measures to avert the
danger.
7. Operating the products requires special
training and intense concentration. Make
certain that persons who use the products
are physically, mentally and emotionally fit
enough to handle operating the products;
otherwise injuries or material damage may
occur. It is the responsibility of the
employer to select suitable personnel for
operating the products.
8. Prior to switching on the product, it must be
ensured that the nominal voltage setting on
the product matches the nominal voltage of
the AC supply network. If a different voltage
is to be set, the power fuse of the product
may have to be changed accordingly.
9. In the case of products of safety class I with
movable power cord and connector,
operation is permitted only on sockets with
earthing contact and protective earth
connection.
10. Intentionally breaking the protective earth
connection either in the feed line or in the
product itself is not permitted. Doing so can
result in the danger of an electric shock
from the product. If extension cords or
connector strips are implemented, they
must be checked on a regular basis to
ensure that they are safe to use.
11. If the product has no power switch for
disconnection from the AC supply, the plug
of the connecting cable is regarded as the
disconnecting device. In such cases, it
must be ensured that the power plug is
easily reachable and accessible at all times
(length of connecting cable approx. 2 m).
Functional or electronic switches are not
suitable for providing disconnection from
the AC supply. If products without power
switches are integrated in racks or systems,
a disconnecting device must be provided at
the system level.
12. Never use the product if the power cable is
damaged. By taking appropriate safety
measures and carefully laying the power
cable, ensure that the cable cannot be
damaged and that no one can be hurt by
e.g. tripping over the cable or suffering an
electric shock.
13. The product may be operated only from
TN/TT supply networks fused with max.
16 A.
14. Do not insert the plug into sockets that are
dusty or dirty. Insert the plug firmly and all
the way into the socket. Otherwise this can
result in sparks, fire and/or injuries.
15. Do not overload any sockets, extension
cords or connector strips; doing so can
cause fire or electric shocks.
16. For measurements in circuits with voltages
V
> 30 V, suitable measures (e.g.
rms
appropriate measuring equipment, fusing,
current limiting, electrical separation,
insulation) should be taken to avoid any
hazards.
17. Ensure that the connections with
information technology equipment comply
with IEC 950/EN 60950.
18. Never remove the cover or part of the
housing while you are operating the
product. This will expose circuits and
components and can lead to injuries, fire or

FSE Introduction
5 Remote Control - Basics
In this chapter you find:
• instructions how to put the FSE into operation via remote control,
• a general introduction to remote control of programmable ins truments. This includes the description
of the command str ucture and syntax according to the SCPI standard, the description of c ommand
execution and of the status registers,
• diagrams and tables describing the status registers used in the FSE.
In chapter 6, all remote control functions are described in detail. The subsystems are listed by
alphabetical order according to SCPI. All commands and their parameters are listed by alphabetical
order in the command list at the end of chapter 6.
Program examples for the FSE can be found in chapter 7.
The remote control interfaces and their interface functions are described in chapter 8.
Introduction
The instrument is equipped with an IEC-bus interface accor ding to standard IEC 625.1/IEEE 488.2 and
two RS-232 interfaces. The connector is located at the r ear of the instrum ent and permits to connect a
controller for remote control.
The option FSE-B15, (controller function) together with the option FSE B17 (2nd IEC-bus interface) may
also be used as a controller (see chapter 1, section "Option FSE-B17 - Second IEC/IEEE Interface).
In addition, the instrument is equipped with an RSIB interface that allows instrum ent control by Visual
C++ and Visual Basic programs
The instrument supports the SCPI version 1994.0 (Standard Commands for Programmable
Instruments). T he SCPI standard is based on standard IEEE 488.2 and aim s at the standardization of
device-specific commands, error handling and the status registers (see section "SCPI Introduction").
This section assumes basic knowledge of IEC-bus programming and operation of the controller. A
description of the interface c omm ands is to be obtained from the relevant m anuals.
functions are matched to the function interface for IEC/IEEE-bus programming from National
Instruments. The functions supported by the DLLs are listed in chapter 8.
The requirements of the SCPI standard placed on com m and syntax, error handling and configur ation of
the status registers are explained in detail in the r espective sections. Tables provide a fast overview of
the commands implem ented in the instrument and the bit assignm ent in the status regis ters. T he tables
are supplemented by a comprehensive desc ription of every com m and and the s tatus register s. Detailed
program examples of the main functions are to be found in chapter 7.
The program examples for IEC-bus programming are all written in Quick BASIC.

Brief Instructions FSE
Brief Instructions
The short and simple operating sequence given below permits fast putting into operation of the
instrument and setting of its bas ic functions. As a prerequisite, the IEC-bus addr es s , which is factory-set
to 20, must not have been changed.
1. Connect instrument and controller using IEC-bus cable.
2. Write and start the following program on the controller:
CALL IBFIND("DEV1", analyzer%) ’Open port to the instrument
CALL IBPAD(analyzer%, 20) ’Inform controller about instrument address
CALL IBWRT(analyzer%, "*RST;*CLS") ’Reset instrument
CALL IBWRT(analyzer%, ’FREQ:CENT 100MHz’) ’Set center frequency to 100 MHz
CALL IBWRT(analyzer%, ’FREQ:SPAN 10MHz’) ’Set span to 10 MHz
CALL IBWRT(analyzer%, ’DISP:TRAC:Y:RLEV -10dBm’)
’Set reference level to -10 dBm
The instrument now performs a sweep in the frequency range of 95 MHz to 105 MHz.
3. To return to manual control, press the LOCAL key at the front panel
Switchover to Remote Control
On power-on, the instrument is always in the manual operating state ("LOCAL" state) and can be
operated via the front panel.
It is switched to remote control ("REMOTE" state)
IEC-bus as soon as it receives an addressed command from a controller.
RS-232 as soon as it receives the command ’@REM’ from a controller.
RSIB as soon as it receives an addressed command from a controller.
During remote control, operation via the f ront panel is disabled. The ins trument remains in the remote
state until it is reset to the manual s tate via the front panel or via remote control interf aces. Switching
from manual operation to remote control and vice versa does not affect the remaining instrument
settings.
Indications during Remote Control
Remote control mode is indicated by the LED "REMOTE" on the instrument’s front panel. In this m ode
the softkeys, the function fields and the diagram labelling on the display are not shown.
Note: Command SYSTem:DISPlay:UPDate ON activates all indications during remote control to
check the instrument settings.

Setting the Device Address
In order to operate the instrument via the IEC-bus, it must be addres sed using the s et IEC-bus addr ess.
The IEC-bus address of the instrument is factory-set to 20. It can be changed m anually in the SETUP -
GENERAL SETUP menu or via IEC bus. Addresses 0 to 31 are permissible.
Manually: ½ Call SETUP - GENERAL SETUP menu
½ Enter desired address in table GPIB ADDRESS
½ Terminate input using one of the unit keys (=ENTER).
Via IEC bus:
CALL IBFIND("DEV1", analyzer%) ’Open port to the instrument
CALL IBPAD(analyzer%, 20) ’Inform controller about old address
CALL IBWRT(analyzer%, "SYST:COMM:GPIB:ADDR 18")’Set instrument to new address
CALL IBPAD(analyzer%, 18) ’Inform controller about new address
Return to Manual Operation
Return to manual operation is possible via the front panel or the IEC bus.
Manually: ½ Press the LOCAL key.
Notes:–Before switchover, command proces sing must be completed as
otherwise switchover to remote control is effected immediately.
– T he LOCAL key can be disabled by the univers al command LLO
(see chapter 8) in order to prevent unintentional switchover. In
this case, switchover to manual mode is only pos s ible via the IEC
bus.
– T he LOCAL key can be enabled again by deactivating the REN
line of the IEC bus (see chapter 8).

Remote Control via RS-232-Interface
Setting the Transmission Parameters
To enable an error-free and correct data transmission, the parameters of the unit and the controller
should have the same setting. Parameters can be manually changed in menu SETUP-GENERAL
SETUP in table COM PORT 1/2 or via remote control using the command
SYSTem:COMMunicate:SERial1|2:... .
The transmission parameters of the interfaces COM1 and COM2 are factory-set to the following values:
Instruments with Windows NT controller:

½ Terminate input using one of the unit keys (=ENTER).
Return to Manual Operation
Return to manual operation is possible via the front panel or via RS-232 interface.
Manually: ½ Press the LOCAL key.
Notes: Before switchover, command processing must be completed as
otherwise switchover to remote control is effected immediately.
– The LOCAL key can be disabled by the univ ersal command LLO
(see chapter 8) in order to prevent unintentional switc hover. In this
case, switchover to manual mode is only possible via remote
control.
– The LOCAL key can be enabled again by sending the control
codes "@LOC" via RS-232 (see chapter 8).
Via RS-232: ...

Limitations
The following limitations apply if the unit is remote-controlled via the RS-232-C interface:
− No interface messages, some control codes are defined (see chapter 8).
− Only the Common Comm ands *OPC? can be used for com mand synchronization, *WAI and *OPC
are not available.
− Block data cannot be transmitted.
When W indows NT is booted, data are output via the COM interface because of automatic external
device recognition. Therefor e, it is r ec ommended to clear the input buff er of the c ontro ller bef or e r emote

Switchover to Remote Control FSE
Remote Control via RSIB Interface
Notes: The RSIB interface is only available for instruments equipped with controller option, FSE-B15.
Windows Environment
To access the measuring instruments via the RSIB interface the DLLs should be installed in the
corresponding directories:
Instruments with Windows NT controller:
• RSIB.DLL in Windows NT system directory or control application directory.
• RSIB32.DLL in Windows NT system32 directory or control application directory.
On the measuring instrument the DLL is already installed in the corresponding directory.
Instruments with MS DOS controller
• RSIB.DLL in Windows NT system directory or control application directory.
Unix Enviroment – with Windows NT Controller
In order to access the measuring equipment via the RSIB interfac e, c opy the librsib.so.X.Y file to a
directory for which the control application has read rights. X.Y in the file name indicates the version
number of the library, for example 1.0 (for details see Chapter 8
).
Remote Control
The control is performed with Visual C++ or Visual Basic programs. The local link to the internal
controller is established with the name ’@local. If a remote controller is used, the instrum ent IP address
is to be indicated here(only with Windows NTcontroller) .
Via VisualBasic: internal controller: ud = RSDLLibfind (’@local’, ibsta, iberr, ibcntl)
remote controller: ud = RSDLLibfind (’82.1.1.200’, ibsta, iberr, ibcntl)
Return to Manual Operation
The return to manual operation can be performed via the front panel (LOCAL key) or the RSIB interface.
Manually: ½ Press the LOCAL key.
Note: Before switchover, command processing must be completed as

FSE Messages
Messages
The messages transf err ed via the data lines of the IEC bus or the RSIB interf ac e ( see c hapter 8) c an be
divided into two groups:
– interface messages and
– device messages.
Some control characters are defined for the control of the RS-232-interface (see chapter 8).
IEE/IEEE-Bus Interface Messages
Interface messages are trans fer red on the data lines of the IEC bus, the "AT N" contr ol line being active.
They are used for communication between controller and instrument and can only be sent by a
controller which has the IEC-bus control. Interface commands can be subdivided into
– universal commands and
– addressed commands.
Universal commands act on all devices connected to the IEC bus without previous addressing,
addressed comm ands only act on devices previously addressed as listeners. The inter face messages
relevant to the instrument are listed in chapter 8.
RSIB Interface Messages
The RSIB interface enables the instrument to be controlled by Visual C++ or Vis ual Bas ic pr ogr ams. The
interface functions are matched to the function interface for IEC/IEEE-bus programming from National
Instruments.
The functions supported by interface are listed in chapter 8
.
1065.6016.12 5.7 E-16
Messages FSE
Device Messages (Commands and Device Responses)
Device messages are transferred on the data lines of the IEC bus, the "ATN" control line not being
active. ASCII code is used. The device messages are more or less equal for the different interfaces.
A distinction is made according to the direction in which they are sent on the IEC bus:
– Commands are messages the controller sends to the instrument. They operate the device
functions and request informations.
The commands are subdivided according to two criteria::
1. According to the effect they have on the instrument:
Setting commands cause instrument settings such as reset of the
instrument or setting the center frequency.
Queries cause data to be provided for output on the IEC-bus,
e.g. for identification of the device or polling the
marker.
2. According to their definition in standard IEEE 488.2:
Common Commands are exactly defined as to their function and
notation in standard IEEE 488.2. They refer to
functions such as managem ent of the standar-dized
status registers, reset and selftest.
Device-specific
commands refer to functions depending on the features of the
instrument such as f requency setting. A majority of
these commands has also been standardized by the
SCPI committee (cf. Section 3.5.1).
– Device responses are messages the instrument sends to the controller after a query. They can
contain measurement results, instrument settings and information on the
instrument status (cf. Section 3.5.4).
Structure and syntax of the device messages are described in the following section. T he com m ands are
listed and explained in detail in chapter 6.

SCPI Introduction
SCPI (Standard Commands for Programmable Instruments) describes a standard command set for
programming inst ruments, irres pective of the type of instrument or m anufacturer. T he goal of the SCPI
consortium is to standar dize the device-specific com mands to a large extent. F or this purpose, a model
was developed which defines the same functions inside a device or for different devices. Command
systems were generated which are assigned to these func tions. T hus it is possible to address the sam e
functions with identical commands. The command systems are of a hierarchical structure.
Fig. 5-1 illustrates this tree structure using a section of com mand system SENSe, which controls the
sensor functions of the devices.
SCPI is based on standard IEEE 488.2, i.e. it uses the sam e syntactic basic elements as well as the
common com m ands defined in this standard. Part of the syntax of the device r esponses is def ined with
greater restrictions than in standard IEEE 488.2 (see Section "Responses to Queries").
Structure of a Command
The comm ands c onsist of a so-c alled header and, in m ost c ases , one or m ore parameters. Header and
parameter are separated by a "white space" (ASCII code 0 to 9, 11 to 32 decimal, e.g. blank). The
headers may consist of several key words. Queries are form ed by directly appending a question mark to
the header.
Note: The commands used in the following examples are not in ev ery case implemented in the
instrument.
Common commands Common commands consist of a header preceded by an asterisk "*"
and one or several parameters, if any.
Examples: *RST RESET, resets the device
*ESE 253 EVENT STATUS ENABLE, sets the bits of the
event status enable register
*ESR? EVENT STATUS QUERY, queries the
contents of the event status register.

Structure and Syntax of the Device Messages FSE
Device-specific commands
Hierarchy: Device-specific commands are of hierarchical structure (see
Fig. 5-1). The different levels are represented by combined headers.
Headers of the highest level (root level) have only one key word. This
key word denotes a complete command system.
Example: SENSe This key word denotes the com mand system
SENSe.
For commands of lower levels, the complete path has to be specified,
starting on the left with the highest level, the individual key words being
separated by a colon ":".
Example: SENSe:FREQuency:SPAN:LINK STARt
This command lies in the fourth level of the SENSe system. It
determines which parameter remains unchanged when the span is
changed. If LINK is set to STARt, the values of CENT er and ST OP are
adjusted when the span is changed.
SENSe
BANDwidth FUNCtion
Fig. 5-1 Tree structure the SCPI command systems using the SENSe system by way of example
Some key words occur in several levels within one comm and system . Their
effect depends on the structure of the comm and, that is to say, at which
position in the header of a command they are inserted.
Example: SOURce:FM:POLarity NORMal
FREQuency
STOP
This command contains key word POLarity in the third
command level. It defines the polarity between modulator and
modulation signal.
SOURce:FM:EXTernal:POLarity NORMal
This command contains key word POLarity in the fourth
command level. It defines the polarity between modulation
voltage and the resulting direction of the m odulation only for the
external signal source indicated.

FSE Structure and Syntax of the Device Messages
Optional key words: Some command systems perm it cer tain key words to be optionally inserted
into the header or omitted. These key words are marked by square
brackets in the descr iption. The full command length must be recognized
by the instrument for reasons of compatibility with the SCPI standard.
Some commands are considerably shortened by these optional key words.
Example: [SENSe]:BANDwidth[:RESolution]:AUTO
This command couples the resolution bandwidth of the
instrument to other parameters. The following command has
the same effect:
BANDwidth:AUTO
Note: An optional key word must not be omitted if its effect is specified
in detail by a numeric suffix.
Long and s hort form: The key words feature a long for m and a short form . Either the s hort form
or the long form can be entered, other abbreviations are not permissible.
Beispiel: STATus:QUEStionable:ENABle 1= STAT:QUES:ENAB 1
Note: The short form is mark ed by upper-case letters, the long form
corresponds to the complete word. Upper- case and lower-c ase
notation only serve the above purpose, the instrument itself
does not make any difference between upper-case and lowercase letters.
Parameter: T he parameter must be separated from the header by a "white space". If
several parameters ar e specified in a command, they are separated by a
comma ",". A f ew queries perm it the param eters MINim um , MAXim um and
DEFault to be entered. For a description of the types of parameter, refer to
Section 3.5.5.
Example: SENSe:FREQuency:STOP? MAXimum Response:
This query requests the maximal value for the stop frequency.
Numeric suffix: If a device features several functions or features of the same kind, e.g.
inputs, the desired function can be selec ted by a suffix added to the command. Entries without suffix are interpreted like entries with the suffix 1.
Example:. SYSTem:COMMunicate:SERial2:BAUD 9600
This command sets the baudrate of the second serial interface.
