Introduction
This manual explains the use of commands to remotely control the LVDS Video
plug-in application.
You can install the LVDS Video plug-in either in the SourceXpress software
application or in an AWG5200 Series Arbitrary Waveform Generator.
Using a single VISA or raw socket session, it is possible to communicate the
plug-in with both SourceXpress programmatic interface and AWG5200 Series
instruments.
For information on the Remote Control, GPIB Parameters, LAN Parameters,
Connecting to the Instrument using GPIB, and Setting up GPIB Communication,
refer to the AWG5200 Series Arbitrary Waveform Generators Programmer
Manual.

Syntax and commands
Command syntax
For information on the Syntax Overview, Command and Query Structure,
Clearing the Instrument, Command Entry, Parameter Types, SCPI Commands
and Queries, refer to the AWG5200 Series Arbitrary Waveform Generators
Programmer Manual.
Parameter types
Every parameter in the command and query descriptions is of a specified type.
The parameters are enclosed in brackets, such as <value>. The parameter type is
listed after the parameter and is enclosed in parentheses, for example, (boolean).
Some parameter types are defined specifically for the RSA Series command set
and some are defined by ANSI/IEEE 488.2-1987 as defined in the table below.
Parameter type Description Example
arbitrary block
boolean Boolean numbers or values ON or 1; OFF or 0
binary Binary numbers #B0110
octal Octal numbers #Q57, #Q3
hexadecimal
NR11 numeric Integers 0, 1, 15, -1
1 2
NR2
numeric Decimal numbers 1.2, 3.141516, -6.5
NR31 numeric Floating point numbers 3.1415E-9, -16.1E5
NRf1 numeric Flexible decimal number that
3
string
1
A specified length of arbitrary
data
#512234xxxxx . . . where
5 indicates that the following
5 digits (12234) specify the
length of the data in bytes;
xxxxx ... indicates the data
1
Hexadecimal numbers
#HAA, #H1
(0-9, A, B, C, D, E, F)
See NR1, NR2, and NR3
may be type NR1, NR2 or NR3
Alphanumeric characters (must
examples
"Testing 1, 2, 3"
be within quotation marks)
1
Defined in ANSI/IEEE 488.2 as "Definite Length Arbitrary Block Response Data."
2
Some commands and queries will accept an octal or hexadecimal value even though the parameter type is defined as NR1.
3
Defined in ANSI/IEEE 488.2 as "String Response Data."
