Program Memory
Program Memory
The program memory is a volatile memory that is used to store command strings
temporarily. The Agilent B1500 has a built-in program memory that can store 2,000
programs maximum, and a total of 40,000 commands.
The program memory can eliminate several processes in the program execution,
such as transferring commands, checking command syntax, and converting
commands to the internal codes. Thus, using the program memory speeds up
program execution. If frequently used command strings are stored in the program
memory, GPIB/computer activity is minimized.
Using Program Memory
You can store, execute, read, and delete programs in the program memory as shown
below. For details on each command, refer to Chapter 4, “Command Reference.”
To store programs Send the ST and END commands to store a program. The following procedure
stores a program (program number n) in the program memory. A multiple command
string is also available.
1. OUTPUT @B1500;"ST n"
where, n is the program number for the program now stored in the program
memory. The value must be an integer, 1 to 2000.
2. OUTPUT @B1500;"XXXX"
where, XXXX must be the command you want to store in the program memory.
Repeat this until all required commands are stored.
Table 2-1 lists the invalid commands for the program memory.
3. OUTPUT @B1500;"END"
NOTE The program must be complete and free of errors.
An error occurs if the program memory overflows while a program is being stored.
If you store a new program using an existing program number, the old program is
deleted and the new program is stored.
