Page 127: Remote Control
CTS60 Remote Control Remote Control Introduction The instrument is equipped with a serial interface (RS 232-C). The connector is located at the rear of the instrument and permits to connect a controller for remote control. The instrument supports the SCPI version 1992.0 (Standard Commands for Programmable Instruments).
Page 128: Switchover To Remote Control
Remote Control CTS60 Switchover to Remote Control On power-on, the instrument is always in the manual operating state ("LOCAL" state) and can be operated via the front panel. It is switched to remote control ("REMOTE" state) as soon as it receives a command from a controller.
Page 129: Structure And Syntax Of The Device Messages
CTS60 Remote Control Structure and Syntax of the Device Messages 8.5.1 SCPI Introduction SCPI (Standard Commands for Programmable Instruments) describes a standard command set for programming instruments, irrespective of the type of instrument or manufacturer. The goal of the SCPI consortium is to standardize the device-specific commands to a large extent.
Page 130 Remote Control CTS60 SOURce POWer POLarity MODE EXTernal STATe INTernal POLarity COUPling Fig. 8-1 Tree structure of the SCPI command systems using the SOURce system by way of example Some key words occur in several levels within one command system. Their effect depends on the structure of the command, that is to say, at which position in the header of a command they are inserted.
Page 131: Structure Of A Command Line
CTS60 Remote Control Long and short form: The key words feature a long form and a short form. Either the short form or the long form can be entered, other abbreviations are not permissible. Example: STATus:QUEStionable:ENABle 1= STAT:QUES:ENAB 1 Note: The short form is marked by upper-case letters, the long form corresponds to the complete word.
Page 132 Remote Control CTS60 Example: SOURce:FM:MODE LOCKed;:SOURce:FM:INT:FREQuency 1kHz " " This command line is represented in its full length and contains two commands separated from each other by the semicolon. Both commands are part of the SOURce command system, subsystem FM, i.e. they have two common levels.
Page 133: Responses To Queries
CTS60 Remote Control 8.5.4 Responses to Queries A query is defined for each setting command unless explicitly specified otherwise. It is formed by adding a question mark to the associated setting command. According to SCPI, the responses to queries are partly subject to stricter rules than in standard IEEE 488.2.
Page 134: Parameters
Remote Control CTS60 8.5.5 Parameters Most commands require a parameter to be specified. The parameters must be separated from the header by a "white space". Permissible parameters are numerical values, Boolean parameters, text, character strings and block data. The type of parameter required for the respective command and the permissible range of values are specified in the command description (see Section 8.6).
Page 135 CTS60 Remote Control Text Text parameters observe the syntactic rules for key words, i.e. they can be entered using a short or long form. Like any parameter, they have to be separated from the header by a white space. In the case of a query, the short form of the text is provided.
Page 136: Overview Of Syntax Elements
Remote Control CTS60 8.5.6 Overview of Syntax Elements The following survey offers an overview of the syntax elements. The colon separates the key words of a command. In a command line the colon after the separating semicolon marks the uppermost command level.
Page 137: Description Of Commands
CTS60 Remote Control Description of Commands 8.6.1 Notation In the following sections, all commands implemented in the instrument are first listed in tables and then described in detail, separated according to the command system. The notation corresponds to the one of the SCPI standards to a large extent.
Page 138 Remote Control CTS60 Special characters A selection of key words with an identical effect exists for several commands. These key words are indicated in the same line, they are separated by a vertical stroke. Only one of these key words has to be indicated in the header of the command.
Page 139: Common Commands
CTS60 Remote Control 8.6.2 Common Commands The common commands are taken from the IEEE 488.2 (IEC 625-2) standard. Same commands have the same effect on different devices. The headers of these commands consist of "*" followed by three letters. Many common commands refer to the status reporting system which is described in detail in Section 8.8.
Page 140 Remote Control CTS60 *IDN? IDENTIFICATION QUERY queries the instrument identification. The device response is for example : ROHDE&SCHWARZ,CTSzz,ssssss/sss,x.xx yy.yy.yy (zz is the model no., eg 55 or 65 ssssss/sss is the serial no., eg 101183/005 x.xx is the software version, eg V 1.00 yy.yy.yy is the date, eg 18.10.93)
Page 141 CTS60 Remote Control *PRE 0...255 PARALLEL POLL REGISTER ENABLE sets parallel poll enable register to the value indicated. Query *PRE? returns the contents of the parallel poll enable register in decimal form. *PSC 0 | 1 POWER ON STATUS CLEAR determines whether the contents of the ENABle registers is maintained or reset in switching on.
Page 142: Instrument Model And Command Processing
Remote Control CTS60 Instrument Model and Command Processing The instrument model shown in Fig. 8-2 has been made viewed from the standpoint of the servicing of remote-control commands. The individual components work independently of each other and simultaneously. They communicate by means of so-called "messages".
Page 143: Status Reporting System
CTS60 Remote Control Status Reporting System The status reporting system (cf. Fig. 8-4) stores all information on the present operating state of the instrument and on errors which have occurred. This information is stored in the status registers and in the error queue.
Page 144 Remote Control CTS60 CONDition part The CONDition part is directly written into by the hardware or the sum bit of the next lower register. Its contents reflects the current instrument status. This register part can only be read, but not written into or cleared. Its contents is not affected by reading.

CTS60 Remote Control 8.8.3.2 Event-Status-Reg. (ESR) and Event-Status-Enable-Reg. (ESE) The ESR is already defined in IEEE 488.2. It can be compared with the EVENt part of an SCPI register. The event status register can be read out using command "*ESR?".
Page 148: Error-Queue Query
Remote Control CTS60 8.8.4 Error-Queue Query Each error state in the instrument leads to an entry in the error queue. The entries of the error queue are detailed plain-text error messages which can be queried via the remote control using command "SYSTem:ERRor?".
Page 149: Software Options
CTS60 Software Options Software Options Overview Software options is a way of turning on extra facilities of the CTS via the softkeys. An option can be enabled either permanently or for a limited period of time. To use software options, two pieces of information are required, these being the CTS’s serial number and a code number for the required software option.
Page 150: Setting The Serial Number
Software Options CTS60 Setting the Serial Number To set the serial number, firstly enter the "Enable S/W Options" menu via the main configuration menu. Enable S/W Options Menu The serial number is normally entered into the CTS on the production line and can be seen on the "Enable S/W Options"...
Page 151: Setting The Code Number To Enable An Option
CTS60 Software Options Setting the Code Number to enable an option First enter the "Enable S/W Options" menu via the main configuration menu. If you have just set the serial number you will already be in this menu. If the serial number is available then it will be shown on the menu, as below. If it is not available then you must enter it as described in section 9.3.
Page 152 Software Options CTS60 Enable S/W Options Menu (Test Enabled) The new option is now available for use. If the option has been enabled for a limited period of time the option will disappear from use after the time period has elapsed.

Page 173 CTS60 Interfaces/Annex A Serial Interface The instrument is equipped with a serial interface (RS-232-C) as standard. The 9-pin connector is located at the rear of the instrument. A controller for remote control can be connected via the interface. The connection is effected using a zero modem cable.
Page 174 Interfaces/Annex A CTS60 Lines 1. Data lines RxD (receive data) and TxD (transmit data) The transmission is bit-serial in the ASCII code starting with the LSB. The two lines are necessary as the minimum requirement for a transmission; however, no hardware handshake is possible, but only the XON/XOFF protocol.
Page 175 CTS60 Interfaces/Annex A Handshake Software handshake In the case of the software handshake, the data transfer is controlled using the two control characters XON / XOFF. The CTS uses the control character XON to indicate that it is ready to receive data.
Page 176 Interfaces/Annex A CTS60 Cable for local controller coupling in the case of hardware handshake The connection of the CTS to a controller is effected with a so-called zero modem cable. In the case of this cable, the data, control and report lines must be crossed. The following wiring diagram applies to a controller with 9-pin or 25-pin configuration.
Page 177 CTS60 List of Error Messages/Annex B List of Error Messages The following list contains all error messages for errors occurring in the instrument. The meaning of negative error codes is defined in SCPI, positive error codes mark errors specific of the instrument.
