HP 8711C/12C/13C/14C RF Network Analyzers Programmer's Guide About this Manual We’ve added this manual to the Agilent website in an effort to help you support your product. This manual is the best copy we could find; it may be incomplete or contain dated information. If we find a more recent copy in the future, we will add it to the Agilent website. Support for Your Product Agilent no longer sells or supports this product. Our service centers may be able to perform calibration if no repair parts are needed, but no other support from Agilent is available. You will find any other available product information on the Agilent Test & Measurement website, www.tm.agilent.com. HP References in this Manual This manual may contain references to HP or Hewlett-Packard. Please note that Hewlett-Packard's former test and measurement, semiconductor products and chemical analysis businesses are now part of Agilent Technologies. We have made no changes to this manual copy. In other documentation, to reduce potential confusion, the only change to product numbers and names has been in the company name prefix: where a product number/name was HP XXXX the current name/number is now Agilent XXXX. For example, model number HP8648A is now model number Agilent 8648A.

Contact your nearest Hewlett-Packard sales or service office for information. @Copyright 1996, 1997, 1998 Hewlett-Packard Company - I I - HP-IB Programming This document is an introduction to programming your analyzer over the Hewlett-Packard Interface Bus (HP-IB). Its purpose is to provide concise information about the operation of the instrument under HP-II3 control. It provides some background information on the HP-IB and a tutorial introduction using programming examples to demonstrate the remote operation of the analyzer. The examples are provided on two disks that are included with the analyzer. Both disks contain the same examples written mainly in HP BASIC; only the disk format is different. These programs can run on the analyzer’s internal controller (Option lC2) or on an external controller. l Example Programs Disk - DOSFbvmat : part number 08712-10019 l ExammpLe Programs Disk - LIFRrrmat : part number 08712-10021 You should become familiar with the operation of your network analyzer before controlling it over HP-IB. This document is not intended to teach programming or to discuss HP-IB theory except at an introductory level. Related information can be found in the following references. Contact the nearest HP sales office for ordering information. A list of HP sales and service offices can be found in the “Specifications and Characteristics” chapter of the User’s Guide. l Information on making measurements with the analyzer is available in the analyzer’s User’s Guide. l Information on HP Instrument BASIC is available in the HP Instrument BASIC User’s Handbook. 0 Information on HP BASIC programming is available in the manual set for the BASIC revision being used. For example: BASIC 7.0 Programming Rchniques and BASIC 7.0 Language Reference. l Information on using the HP-IB is available in the Tutorial Description of the Hewlett-Packard Interface Bus (HP literature no. 5021-1927). 111 I - - I I - Contents 1.
