Most programming difficulties can be resolved by you if you know what's
wrong. It is very important while developing your application that you
execute the SYSTem:ERRor? command after each programming command.
This is the only way you will know if there is a programming error.
SYST:ERR? returns an error number and description (or +0, "No Error").
Some of the programming operations that follow may already be set after
Power-on or after a *RST command. Where these default settings coincide
with the configuration settings you require, you do not need to execute a
command to set them. These are the default settings:
•
No algorithms defined
•
No channels defined in channel lists
•
Programmable SCPs configured to their Power-on defaults
(see individual SCP User's Manuals)
•
All analog input channels linked to EU conversion for voltage
•
All analog output channels ready to take values from an algorithm
•
All digital I/O channels set to input static digital state
•
ARM:SOURce
•
TRIGger:SOURce
•
TRIGger:COUNt
•
TRIGer:TIMer
•
FORMat
•
SENSe:DATA:FIFO:MODE
Figure 3-3 provides a quick reference to the Programming model. Refer to
this, together with the "Programming Overview Diagram" to keep an
overview of the HP E1415 SCPI programming sequence. Again, where
default settings are what you want, you can skip that configuration step
