Overview 1 Overview Signal generators are often used in automated test environment applications. The replacement of those instruments, e.g., due to malfunction or standard replacement procedures requires special care to be taken in consideration. Replacement of those instruments requires compabitiblity between the replacement part and the replaced part in at least the electrical features remote-control features... - Page 7 RC3102 emulation mode in detail.

Page 10: Limitation
Limitation 3 Limitation General The signal generators SM* offers built in “language emulation”. This “language emulation” capability assures, that the SM* processes all documented commands without malfunction of the emulation software or the instruments software at all. processes all documented parameters of a command without malfunction of the emulation software or the instruments software. -
Page 11: Timing
Limitation Status Remark Command fully supported by emulation software. Implementation is identical in both systems. No special care has to be taken in consideration. Software, that uses that kind of command has not to be adapted. Command partly supported by emulation software. Implementation is different in both systems. -
Page 12: Activation
Activation 4 Activation In order to use a specific language emulation mode of the SM*, it must first be activated by the user. Activation is done either locally using the front panel, or, remotely using SCPI commands Local In the Remote Channel Settings dialog from the Setup GPIB menu, select the appropriate Language in GPIB Settings, e.g., HP8340. -
