Perform Calibration; Connect Dut; Trigger A Measurement - Agilent Technologies 4396B Gpib Programming Manual

In lines 80 to 110 (setting frequency), parameters are required with the GPIB command. To set
parameters, see \To Execute an GPIB Command with a Parameter" later in this chapter.

Perform Calibration

In lines 140 to 240, the GPIB program follows the key strokes required to calibrate from the
front panel. This program performs a response calibration.
Line 170 requests the operator to connect a THRU calibration standard.
Lines 180 through 220 use the status bytes to detect the completion of the THRU calibration.
See \To Wait for Sweep End" in Chapter 3.
Lines 240 through 270 use the command to detect the completion of the calculation
of the calibration coecients. See \To Wait For the Preceding Operation to Complete" in
Chapter 3.

Connect DUT

Line 300 requests the operator to connect a DUT to the analyzer.
All instrument settings and calibration are done. You can now measure the DUT.

Trigger a Measurement

Lines 310 to 370 enable SRQ interruption for sweep end detection. For details, see Chapter 3.
In line 350, the analyzer executed a single trigger. For more advanced trigger control, see
Chapter 2.
