from
the

programming
the

Data Raady
Raquaat
The
DATA READY
Request
feature
permits the
34S5A
to signal
the controller
upon
the
completion of
a
measurement. This
feature
would
normally
be used
where
the
3455A
is
triggered
from an
external source. In
this
mode
of
operation, the
34SSA
is
programmed
to
the
appropriate
measurement
parameters
(FUNCTION,
RANGE,
etc.).
The
con-
troller
is
then
free to
control other
instruments
on
the
Bus.
Upon
being
triggered,
the
3455A makes
a measure-
ment and
outputs a
"Require
Service"
message
to
notify the controller that the
measurement
information
information
is
ready.
Upon
receiving the service
re-
quest, the controller
with
serial
poll
the
34SSA
to deter-
mine
the
nature
of
the
service request.
Upon
being
poll-
ed, the
3455A
outputs a
status byte, in this
case the
ASCII
character
"A"
(decimal
65),
indicating the
measurement
data
is
ready.
The
controller
then
disables
the
serial
poll
and
reads the
measurement
data.
The
pro-
gram
codes
for
the
DATA READY
RQS
feature
are:

The
BINARY
PROGRAM
feature
permits the
status
of
the
FUNCTION, RANGE,
TRIGGER,
MATH, AUTO-CAL
and
HIGH
RESO-
LUTION
controls to
be determined
or
programmed
from
the
bus
in
four
8-bit
binary words.
The
BINARY
PROGRAM
feature allows
faster
programming
of
the
345SA
by
reducing
the
number
of
program
data
bytes
from
a
maximum
of
12 for
normal programming
to
4
data
bytes
for
binary
programming.
The
BINARY
PROGRAM
codes can
also
be
read
and
stored
by
the
controller to
re-program
the
345SA
at
a
later
time
(see
Appendix
A).
One
important
thing
to
remember
is
to
send
a
"B"
to the
3455A
in
order
to
put
the
instrument
into
the
BINARY
mode.

3-5
lists
the allowable
BINARY
PROGRAM
codes
for
each of
the four
data
bytes

keys they
control.
