R&S OSP
7.4 Instrument-Control Commands
The instrument-control commands for the R&S OSP platform provide access to the
relay modules and I/O channel modules. There are configuration commands,
commands to access the mass memory and commands to perform diagnostic and
administrative tasks. The platform commands belong to the following SCPI
subsystems:

7.4.1 ROUTe Commands
The SCPI subsystem ROUTe provides 'signal routing' capabilities for the R&S OSP.
With the commands of this subsystem the user gets access to all relays and I/O
channels of the instrument.
The ROUTe subsystem also provides capabilities to define and announce further
R&S OSP instruments to build up a system of several R&S OSP instruments. The
additional instruments are connected via CAN-Bus.
ROUTe:MODule:DEFine <instr_name>,<instr_address>
This command assigns an instrument name to a number representing an R&S OSP
instrument address. The instrument name must have the format 'F01' up to 'F09'. The
instrument address is a number, whereas the first digit represents the type of the
R&S OSP instrument and the following digits represent the serial number of the
instrument. Once an instrument is assigned to an instrument name, the relays and I/O
channels of this instrument can be controlled by channel lists built up from the
instrument name, module name, relay number and relay condition. For more
information on how a channel list is built up, refer to
The query of this command, ROUT:MOD:DEF? <instr_name> returns the instrument
address that has been previously assigned to the instrument name.
Every R&S OSP instrument in a system that comprises several instruments connected
to each other by CAN bus, must be assigned to an instrument name. Even the
instrument that is directly connected to LAN.
All assignments are stored durable on the compact flash of the instrument which is
directly connected to LAN.
