Generating Plots And Prints Remotely - Agilent Technologies 8560E User Manual

Generating Plots and Prints Remotely

In addition to the plot and print functions available from the spectrum
analyzer front panel, you can also generate plots and prints remotely.
This section describes how to combine plot commands to generate plots,
as well as the print command to generate a color or monochrome print.
Plotter Requirements
Be sure your plotter satisfies the following requirements to execute the
programming examples in this section successfully.
1. The following plotters are supported: the Agilent 7470A, Agilent

The plotter address of 5 corresponds to the default plotter address that
the analyzer uses. This default can be changed via

points (referred to as the P1 and P2 plotter coordinates) define the
lower-left and upper-right corners of the plot. See Figure 5-12 on
page 328. These coordinates define the size of the plot. Table 5-3 on
page 328 shows the scaling points for two Agilent Technologies
plotters.
