ROUTe:RMODule:BANK:LED:DRIVe:LEVel

Syntax

ROUTe:RMODule:BANK:LED:DRIVe:LEVel {<amps>|MIN|MAX|DEF}, {<bank>|ALL}, (@<rem_ch_list>)

ROUTe:RMODule:BANK:LED:DRIVe:LEVel? [{MIN|MAX}, ] <bank>, (@<rem_ch_list>)

Description

This command controls the current level for the LED drives on the specified 34945EXT remote module connected to the 34945A Microwave Switch/Attenuator Driver. The current level can be varied at the bank level, which allows you to vary the LED brightness for each bank.

Used With:

  • 34945A Microwave Switch/Attenuator Driver

Parameters

Name

Type

Range of Values

Default Value

<amps>

Numeric

Desired current in amps between 1 mA and 20 mA, with 1 mA resolution.

MIN = 1 mA, MAX = 20 mA

5 mA

<bank>

Discrete

{1-4|BANK1-BANK4|ALL}

Specify an individual bank or ALL four banks on the specified 34945EXT remote module.

This is a required parameter.
NOTE: The query form of this command accepts only 1-4 for a bank number,
it generates an error if you use BANK1-BANK4.

<rem_ch_list>

Numeric

One or more 34945EXT remote module identifiers in the form (@sr00).

Select from s100 through s800.

This is a required parameter.

Remarks

  • Each channel on the 34945EXT remote modules has an LED drive, which reflects the position indicator state (as supported by the external device connected). Note that the LEDs are not supplied with the modules; see the Agilent 34980A User's Guide for more information on connecting LEDs to the Distribution Board connectors.

  • Use the ROUTe:RMODule:BANK:LED:DRIVe[:ENABle] command to enable the current drives on a per-bank basis.

  • The current drive level setting is stored in non-volatile memory on the 34945EXT remote module. The default level (5 mA) is restored only by the SYSTem:RMODule:RESet command.

Return Format

The query command returns the current drive level in the form "+1.00000000E-01" for the specified banks. Multiple responses are separated by commas.

Examples

The following program segment sets the current drive level to 10 mA on 34945EXT remote module #2 (slot 3).

ROUT:RMOD:BANK:LED:DRIV:LEVEL 0.01,BANK2,(@3200)  !Drive is 10 mA on Bank 2
ROUT:RMOD:BANK:LED:DRIV:ENAB ON,BANK2,(@3200)  !Enable drive on Bank 2

The following command returns the current drive level on 34945EXT remote module #2 (slot 3).

ROUT:RMOD:BANK:LED:DRIV:LEVEL? BANK2,(@3200)

Typical Response:  +1.00000000E-02
