Page 11: Introduction
Introduction This Programming Manual contains information on remote control over Planar TR1300/1, TR5048 or TR7530 Vector Network Analyzer (Analyzer) and its data communication by means of user programs written with COM/DCOM technology. COM technology is used when a user program runs together with an external measurement instrument program on one PC.
Page 12: Automation Server
3 Automation Server The network analyzer executable module contains a built-in COM server that enables other programs to access its functionality. The COM server was developed in conformity with the COM automation specification. COM automation is a technology allowing control over the COM server by the programs written in both traditional compiling programming languages and interpreting programming languages, such as VBScript.
Page 13: Local And Remote Server
5 Local and Remote Server The network analyzer executable module can function either as a local server or as a remote server of COM automation. Local server runs on the same PC with the automation controller and each of the programs is executed as an individual application in a separate window.
Page 14: Structure Of Com Objects
6 Structure of COM Objects COM server contains several objects, which provide different functionality of the server. The COM objects of the network analyzer executable module are organized in a hierarchical structure. Figure 3 shows the main COM objects, which comprise the first three levels of the hierarchical structure of the COM server.
Page 15: Accessing The Application Object
7 Accessing the Application Object To establish connection with the COM server application, create an object reference in the client program. In COM programming the object reference needs to be acquired preliminarily, to be used later to access the object functionality. To define an object in Visual Basic perform the following: 1) Declare a variable as an object;...
Page 16 Accessing the Application Object To allow access to the objects of a lower level of the hierarchy, these objects are specified after the reference to the higher level object and separated from it by a dot. For example: Dim SystObj Set SystObj = app.SCPI.SYSTem COM objects can have indices.
Page 17: Object Methods
8 Object Methods Objects have methods. Methods are actions that can be applied to objects. The object methods are specified after the object name and separated from it by a dot. The following example shows the PRESet method of SYSTem object. This method performs setting of the Analyzer to the preset condition: app.SCPI.SYSTem.PRESet 9 Object Properties...
Page 18: 10 Error Handling
10 Error Handling You can use different approaches to error handling in VB program:  check the value of Err.Number variable after execution of VB operator, which contains the call to COM server object;  use On Error GoTo VB operator. These approaches are represented in the examples below.
Page 19 Error Handling In the second example, On Error GoTo ErrHandler directive instructs VB to interrupt the program execution when the error is detected and to pass control to ErrHandler label. Dim app Public Sub HandleError2() Set app = CreateObject("TRVNA.Application") On Error GoTo ErrHandler app.SCPI.PARameter.DEFine = "S13"...
Page 20: 11 Com Automation Data Types
11 COM Automation Data Types In COM automation, there are the following data types, which can be used for client-to-server communication: Long 32-bit signed integer, value range from –2147483648 to 2147483647 Double 64-bit double-precision floating point, value range from –1.79769313486232E308 –4.94065645841247E–324 negative values,...
Page 21: 12 Measurement Data Arrays
12 Measurement Data Arrays Measurement data can be either complex values or real values. This depends on the format selected by the user. For example, the data is real in logarithmic magnitude format and the data is complex in polar format. The measurement data is transferred in a Variant type variable, which represents an array of Double type.
