The ACE9600 can be controlled remotely using its LAN interface. The
instrument can be connected to any IEEE-802 network. It uses TCP/IP,
and achieves transfer rates up to 100 MSPS. The ACE is configured as
a network server, and can communicate with a network client. The
client can also add and delete dynamic parameter files on the mass
storage device in the ACE.
All front panel Static and Dynamic commands can be initiated with the
LAN interface. While in remote all front panel controls except the
Local key are disabled.
ACEControl provides a graphical user interface to manipulate
parameter files, and to control and monitor the ACE, both in Static and
Dynamic mode. ACEControl is a Windows® PC based application that
is included with the ACE instrument.
Programming control of the ACE9600 can be implemented by two
means: 1) Using ACEControl or 2) by creating a test script, which
sends and receives text commands with the instrument.
A complete description of ACEControl is given in the ACE
Programmer's Manual.
For creating test scripts, refer to the ACE Programmer's Manual for
syntax and code examples.
