IB
Input B
Provides a method for putting values into trace B. The spectrum analyzer expects 401 two-byte
integers. The data values can represent the range of integer numbers.
Syntax
Item Description/Default Range
Data byte &bit byte containing numeric or character data.
Example
10 ASSIGN @a TO 718;FORMAT ON
20 ASSIGN BSa-bin TO 718;FORMAT OFF
30 INTEGER Binary(l:401)
40 OUTPUT (PSa;"CF 300MZ;CLRW TRB;BLANK TRA;SP

50 OUTPUT QISa;"TDF B;MDS W;TB;"
60 ENTER QSa-bin;Binary(*)
70 OUTPUT @Sa;"CF 1OOMZ;RB 30KZ;SP 1MZ;TS;"
80 DISP "PRESS CONTINUE WHEN READY"
90 PAUSE
100 OUTPUT OSa;"IB";
110 OUTPUT aSa_bin;Binary(*)
120 OUTPUT 718;"VIEW TRB;"
130 END
Description
Llimensions an array called “‘Binary. ”
Zzkes a measurement sweep.
Outputs trace B (in binary) to computer:
Stores trace data in array.
Changes the spectrum analyzer settings.
Prepares spectrum analyzer to receive
trace B data stored in array.
Sends trace B data to spectrum analyzer
The IB command sends trace B data as binary data only; IB is independent of the measurement
data size (MDS) command. The IB command expects 802 data bytes (401 data points, two bytes
each).
