Configuring the analyzer for SICL/VISA |
Description |
Allows you to control the VNA via SICL (standard instrument control library). In this mode, the analyzer can receive SCPI commands from the LAN interface or from a program residing on the VNA itself. This command performs the same function as the SICL / GPIB dialog box - SICL Enabled checkbox. See Configuring the analyzer for SICL/VISA. When SICL is enabled, the VNA VXI-11.2 interface is enabled, and if the VNA hard disk image is new enough to have the VXI-11.3 interface, it also enables that. Learn more about LXI / VXI. With this method you can augment a test program written using SICL that resides on the VNA so that it will run unattended. An automation script can be written to start the VNA, enable SICL (using the SICL property), and then start the SICL based program. |
