Introduction

This online programmer manual provides information on how to use commands for remotely controlling your instrument. With this information, you can write computer programs that will perform functions such as setting the setup and multi-carrier functions.

The programmer manual is divided into sections. Each section describes a closely related group of commands. For example, all the compile settings commands are in one sect

The RFXpress programmatic interface works seamlessly with the AWG7000 and AWG5000 s of the AWG7000 and AWG5000 series instruments. Using a single VISA or raw socket session, it is possible to communicate with both RFXpress and AWG.

For information on the Remote Control, GPIB Parameters, LAN Parameters, Connecting to the Instrument using GPIB, and Setting up GPIB Communication, refer to the AWG5000 and AWG7000 Series Arbitrary Waveform Generators Programmer Manual.
