SCPI command to set the frequency for power measurement on Agilent 53147A?

[vivek.madhavan.13]

Hello,

I am trying to automate some measurements which require me to use an Agilent 53147A Freq Counter/Power Meter/Digital Voltmeter. The instrument has an option of setting the frequency of the signal we intend to measure. This is done by clicking the "FREQ" button on the instrument and entering the frequency value of the signal whose power we intend to measure. This way the power meter uses the appropriate calibration factor for that frequency for providing accurate signal power level.

I have been trying to set the frequency of the signal whose power I intend to measure through remote control but have not met success as I have not been able to find the SCPI command associated with this task in the operating manual. Does anyone know what SCPI command is to be used for this purpose? Any comment in this regard is highly appreciated.

Thank You,

Vivek

Hi vivek.madhavan.13,

Try using the drivers for this device found here:

Then, by going to the lowest level that the VIs permit, you may be able to find the SCPI commands your application needs.
