Select the measurement application mode by enumerated choice. The
actual available choices depend upon which applications (modes) are
installed in the instrument. See the manual for installed options for the
mode designator (if any) for that option.
Once the instrument mode is selected, only the commands that are
valid for that mode can be executed.
If you are using the status bits and the analyzer mode is changed, the
NOTE
status bits should be read, and any errors resolved, prior to switching
modes. Error conditions that exist prior to switching modes cannot be
detected using the condition registers after the mode change. This is
true unless they recur after the mode change, although transitions of
these conditions can be detected using the event registers.
Changing modes resets all SCPI status registers and mask registers to
their power-on defaults. Hence, any event or condition register masks
must be re-established after a mode change. Also note that the power
up status bit is set by any mode change, since that is the default state
after power up.
