NOTE.
Refer to the TG700 TV Signal Generator Platform User Manual for
instructions on connecting the TG700 to a single PC or a network and setting the
network parameters for the 10 BASE-T port.
The TG700 supports remote control using the Ethernet interface. This section
describes the TG700 network interface specifications.
The TCP/IP is used as the network protocol, and the port number is fixed 5000.
The commands can be sent from the application program through the socket
interface of the TCP/IP. Also, the query can be received through the interface.
Keep the following in mind while controlling the TG700 remotely with the
Ethernet interface.
The Line Feed (LF) code is needed at the end of a message as a terminator.
The IEEE 488.1 standard (such as Device Clear and Service Request) is not
supported.
The Message Exchange Control Protocol in the IEEE 488.2 is not supported.
However, the common commands such as *ESE and the event handling
features are supported.
The Indefinite format (the block start at #0) in the <ARBITRARY BLOCK
PROGRAM DATA> of the IEEE 488.2 is not supported.
