Other HP VEE example programs
There are several other example programs that you can examine in the
same way that you looked at scope.vee. These programs are in the path
\Hpe1432\examples\hpvee\ on a Microsoft Windows system or
/usr/e1432/vee-examples on an HP-UX system.
bsrcsine.vee (Burst SouRCe SINE)
This program is similar to scope.vee. It displays eight (rather than four)
channels, with time record and FFT for each channel. It also turns on the
source in burst sine mode and ramps up the source output. The user can
specify the duty cycle, ramp rate, level of the source, and frequency of the
source. This program works with HP E1432A’s which are equipped with
the source option ID4.
bsrcrand.vee (Burst SouRCe RANDom)
This program is like bsrcsine.vee except the source is turned on in burst
random mode.
frf_rand.vee. (Frequency Response Function RANDom)
This program displays the frequency response of four channels. One way to
set up this example is to connect a cable between the channel 1 and
channel 2 inputs. Then connect channel 3 to channel 1 through a “black
box” containing the circuit to be tested (using a “T” on channel 1).
Channel 4 remains unconnected. On the display you will see a response for
channel 2 over channel 1 (a flat response for the bare cable), and a
response for channel 3 over channel 1 (representing the frequency response
of the “unknown” circuit). Channel 4 will show a random signal since it
has no input.
order.vee
This program can be used only with an HP1432A with the tachometer
option. It takes four channels of data and displays two channels. It shows
raw time domain data and resampled data for each rpm value. The raw
data can then be processed with a program such as Matlab to make order
ratio maps.
