GPIB Remote Command for R&S FSL Spectrum Analyzer to set "RF Atten Low Distortion"

Solved!
Go to solution

Hi All

 

Anyone knows what is the GPIB remote command for R&S FSL Spectrum Analyzer to set the softkey for "RF Atten Low Distortion" (found in Meas -> Ampt -> More) ?

 

The Operation Manual on page 200 (the page for the menu where this softkey is seen) doesn't have this remote command Smiley Sad

 

Thanks for the help Smiley Happy

Hi Juergen

 

I can't marked this operation on the Operation Manual because I don't find this remote command, or the softkey description. I think this instrution should be at the end of page 203, but it's missing Smiley Sad

 

I don't know how to get a screencopy of the instrument  with the softkeys on the picture. When I make a screen shot on the spectrum analyzer FSL, I only get the grid part of the screen. I could take a picture and send if you want Smiley Happy

If you have a R&S FSL Spectrum Analyzer, this softkey (named as 'RF Atten Low Distortion') should be at:

 

1º KEY: Meas

2º KEY: Ampt

3º SOFTKEY: More

4º SOFTKEY:  RF Atten Low Distortion

 

Regards,

João

I have one solution, but I don't think it's the smartest one. Due the problem of this "missing" remote command, I made a manual preset on the FSL, and then went to the menu where this softkey is seen:

 

1º KEY: Meas

2º KEY: Ampt

3º SOFTKEY: More

4º SOFTKEY:  RF Atten Low Distortion

 

Then i manually saved the settings on the FSL, and finally loading these remotely!

 

Doing this, I garantee that i have RF Atten Low Distortion set to ON every time i run my VIs remotely, because on the beggining I load my settings.

 

But it's not the best solution, because anyone could erase this settings manually...that's why I'm searching for the remote command...

Hi,

 

I'm still wondering regarding two things: fist, my FSL I (personally) was not able to find this softkey and second the current available instrument manual also do not talk about that softkey....

 

Could you pls. double check whether you are using the latest firmware available?

 

Please feel free to contact the R&S Customer support (customersupport@rohde-schwarz.com) with this issue, so we can discuss this thing in detail.

Hi Juergen Straub

Thanks for the answer again.

I'm using FSL with this versions:

 

Firmware Version: 1.91
Image Version: 3.1
BIOS 6.0.150.1
CPLD 8.0
MB-FPGA 5.0
Datasheet Version 9.0

 

I already contact R&S and I'm waiting an answer regarding this subject. When I get one final solution, I'll post here. Otherwise, I think the solution will be the previous I said before. Anyway, thank you for checking this on your FSL Smiley Happy. I really have this softkey on this FSL, despite the fact the softkey ain't in the manual Smiley Happy

 

Danke

Hi,

 

in which mode are you working/accessing this feature? After presetting the instrument (in spectrum analyzer mode) and pressing your softkey sequence I'll get attached screen.
