Controlling the Analyzer using SICL LAN
Consult your HP BASIC documentation to learn how to load the SICL
driver for HP BASIC.
After the SICL driver is loaded, you control your analyzer using
commands such as the following:
OUTPUT 718; “*IDN?”
ENTER 718; S$
where 18 is the device address for the analyzer.
See the HP BASIC example program in this chapter for more
information.
Controlling Your Analyzer with SICL LAN and
HP BASIC for UNIX (Rocky Mountain BASIC)
Before you can use HP Rocky Mountain Basic (HP RMB) with SICL
LAN, you will need to set up the HP SICL LAN I/O drivers for HPRMB.
Consult your system administrator for details.
Create a .rmbrc file in your root directory of your UNIX workstation
with the following entries:
SELECTIVE_OPEN=ON
Interface 8= “lan[analyzer IP address]:HPIB name”;NORMAL
Replace analyzer IP address with the IP address of your analyzer,
and GPIB name with the GPIB name given to your analyzer. Also replace
the “8” of Interface 8 with the logical unit number. Consult your
HPRMB documentation for the exact syntax.
After your SICL driver is configured correctly on your UNIX
workstation, you control your analyzer using commands such as the
following:
OUTPUT 818; “*IDN?”
ENTER 818; S$
where 18 is the device address for the analyzer.
