Test application switching is available on revisions greater than A.04.00 of GSM Mobile Test, and
all other test applications that are developed there after.
Remote User This selects the revision and test application that you want, it does not make the switch.
• In order to query a selected test application revision (running or not) use this GPIB command:
OUTPUT 714;"SYSTEM:APPLICATION:SELECT:REVISION? 'AMPS/136 MOBILE TEST'"

Manual User Revision selection is found in the SYSTEM CONFIG screen, Test Application Setup menu.
Revisions are shown with their license status. This is where you select the revision and test application that
