Operation
4530 Series RF Power Meter
Main Menu > Utilities > Display > Backlight
Selects the operating mode of the LCD backlight. Turning the backlight off reduces power consumption of
the power meter, and extends the life of the display.
On
Backlight is always on (Default).
On/5 min
Backlight turns on with any user input, off after 5 minutes of inactivity.
On/1 min
Backlight turns on with any user input, off after 1 minute of inactivity.
Off
Backlight is always off
Remote Command:
SYSTem:LIGHT
Main Menu > Utilities > Key Beep
Enables or disables the audible key beep. Also affects beep during errors.
Off
Key beep is disabled (Default).
On
Key beep is enabled.
Remote Command:
SYSTem:BEEP
Main Menu > Utilities > IEEE-488 > Bus Setup > Address
Set the primary GPIB address. This parameter must be set - setting instrument defaults has no effect.
Range:
0 to 30
Remote Command:
SYSTem:COMMunicate:GPIB:ADDRess
Main Menu > Utilities > IEEE-488 > Bus Setup > ListnTerm
Select the LISTENER line termination (EOS) character. This character is used to terminate any command the
instrument receives over the GPIB. However, since the instrument always responds to an EOI command from
the controller, it is not necessary for the user to transmit the EOS character unless the controller doesn’t set
EOI on the last command byte. This parameter must be set - setting instrument defaults has no effect.
CR
Use carriage return (ASCII CR, 13, 0x0D hex) as listen termination character.
LF
Use line feed (ASCII LF, 10, 0x0A hex) as listen termination character.
Remote Command:
SYSTem:COMMunicate:GPIB:LISTen
Main Menu > Utilities > IEEE-488 > Bus Setup > Talk Term
Select the TALKER line termination (EOS) character(s). This character(s) is sent by the instrument at the end
of any response string it transmits. However, since it always asserts EOI on the last character of any string,
it may not be necessary to use any EOS character if the controller recognizes the EOI. In this case, set the talk
termination to NONE. This parameter must be set - setting instrument defaults has no effect.
CRLF
Use carriage return followed by a line feed to terminate all strings sent, with EOI.set
on the last (LF) byte.
CR
Use a carriage return only (with EOI set) to terminate all strings sent.
LF
Use a line feed only (with EOI set) to terminate all strings sent.
None
Don’t use any termination character when sending strings - just set EOI on the last
byte of the message.
Remote Command:
SYSTem:COMMunicate:GPIB:TALK
