IEEE-488 PROGRAMMING
After entering the program, press the IBM F2 key to run
it. The five Translator words defined in the data statements
will then be programmed. The defined words can be
verified by sending a Translator word to the instrument,
as in the following example:
Note that the instrument assumes modes programmed by
the SETUP1 Translator word. Line 70 of the program de-
fined these modes as follows: autorange (RO); waveform
function (FO); 10 samples (NO,lD); and 100~s~ sampling
interval (SO,lOOE-6).
You can verify the four other Translator words by
substituting them in the statement abovc.
4.10.2 Enabling and Disabling the Translator
Mode (NEW and OLD)
The NEW and OLD commands are reserved words that
allow you to enable or disable the Translator mode respec-
tively. These words arc discussed in the following
paragraphs.
NEW: This command enables the Translator mode and in-
forms the instrument that the following command strings
may contain Translator words. The instrument will then
respond both to Translator words as well as the usual
device-dependent commands. NEW can also be used to
combine Translator words, as discussed in paragraph
4.10.3.
Note that using the ALIAS command automatically
enables the Translator mode.
OLD: This command disables the 'Translator mode. After
OLD is sent, the Model 194 will respond only to standard
device-dependent command strings.
NOTE
Using NEW or OLD does not in any way change
defined Translator words or the associated com-
mand strings.
HP-85 Programming Example-Run the program example
from paragraph 4.10.1 to define the five Translator words.
Now type in the following statement to disable the
Translator mode:
At this point, the Translator mode has been disabled. This
fact can be verified by attempting to program one of the
previously defined Translator words as follows:
I::/ I.1 1 p i-1 T 7 Ii:, '3 .r i i '-;ET,j,r, 1, ? !
Note that the instrument failed to respond to the Translator
word.
Now re-enable the Translator mode and program a
Translator sequence with the following statements:
Note that the instrument now assumes modes pro-
grammed by the SETUP2 Translator word because the
Translator mode was enabled with the NEW command.
Model 8573 Programming Example-Run the program ex-
ample from paragraph 4.10.1 to define the five Translator
words. Now disable the Translator mode with the follow-
ing statement:
