These units can function as either a GPIB Listener or a Talker; i.e., the TWTA can be controlled by the
external computer and report on its status.
When addressed as a Listener, the TMA causes the amplifier to take some action such as turning
high voltage ON.
When addressed as a Talker, the amplifier sends back information on its operating or fault condition.
Local operation is possible by enabling the front panel controls; however, incoming Bus commands
will override the front panel unless an internal safety switch has been set to prevent it.
Two control languages are included; CPI Simplified Language (CSL) and a version of the Air Force’s
Control Interface Intermediate Language (CIIL). An internal switch allows quick selection of language.
