Using the Programming Interface Examples

The programming examples for remote control of the signal generator use the GPIB, LAN, and
RS- 232 interfaces and demonstrate instrument control using different IO libraries and programming
languages. Many of the example programs in this chapter are interactive; the user will be prompted
to perform certain actions or verify signal generator operation or functionality. Example programs are
written in the following languages:
HP Basic
C/C++
Java
Perl
These example programs are also available on the signal generator Documentation CD- ROM, enabling
you to cut and paste the examples into a text editor.
NOTE
The example programs set the signal generator into remote mode; front panel keys, except
the Keysight MXG Local/Esc/Cancel or the ESG, and PSG Local key, are disabled. Press the
