Query Response
"Keysight Technologies,<model-number>,<serial-number>,<application-version>"
Description
Returns an ASCII string that lists the DCA-X model number (86100D or N1000A), the DCA-X's serial number, and FlexDCA's firmware version. This is shown in the following example,
"Keysight Technologies,N1000A,MY12345678,A.06.60.32"
If FlexDCA is in FlexRT mode, the returned string lists the Infiniium real-time oscilloscope's model number (for example, UXR0504A), serial number, and firmware version. For example,
"Keysight Technologies,UXR0504A,MY12345678,A.10.25"
If FlexDCA is not connected to an instrument, such as when N1010A FlexDCA is used on a PC with simulated extended modules, the <oscilloscope> field will be N1010A and the <serial number> field will show the computer name of the PC where FlexDCA (or FlexDCA in FlexRT mode) is installed.
For FlexDCA revisions below 1.08.00, the <oscilloscope> field returns N1010A when FlexDCA is installed on the oscilloscope.
The model numbers that are returned for the various Flex applications are listed in the following table.
| Application | Model Number |
|---|---|
| FlexDCA (on DCA-X) | N1000A or 86100D |
| FlexDCA (on PC) | N1010A |
| FlexPLL | N1000100A |
| FlexOTO (Hardware Diagram) | N1000300A |
| FlexOTO (Station) | N1000200A |
