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.

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

data
#512234xxxxx . . . where
5 indicates that the following
5 digits (12234) specify the
length of the data in bytes;
