Introduction
Mainframe commands control the basic operation of the instrument
for both the HP 16500B mainframe alone or with the HP 16501A
expansion frame connected. Mainframe commands can be called at
anytime, and from any module. The only difference in mainframe
commands with an HP 16501A connected is the number of slots and
modules. These differences will be noted in the affected command
descriptions.
The main difference between an HP 16500B alone and an HP 16500B
with the HP 16501A connected is how you specify the SELECT
command. Remember, the HP 16500B alone has only five slots;
therefore, if you specify 6 through 10 for the SELECT command in
your program, the command parser will take no action.
This chapter contains the mainframe commands with a syntax
example for each command. Each syntax example contains the
parameters for the HP 16500B/16501A. Refer to figure 9-1 and table
9-1 for the Mainframe commands syntax diagram.
