EMULATION
COMMANDS This section provides an alphabetical listing of the commands (mnemon-
ics) used to program the Model ML2430A Series Power Meter when in HP
436A Emulation mode. The emulation mode is set through the front panel
SYSTEM|Rear Panel|GPIB|MODE menu (see Chapter 4, Operation) or
through the GPIB command EMUL (page 6-96).
HP Emulation commands must not have a space between the command
header and the parameter, or commas between the parameters.
The format for HP Emulation commands is:
<command header><parameter 1><parameter n>...
The end of the command text must be terminated with a line feed charac-
ter (0Ah, decimal 10) or a GPIB End of Transmission State (EOI), or both.

1, 2, 3,
4 & 5 Set sensor operating range
Remarks: Range 5 is the highest power range, range 1 the lowest. (These are the
opposite to the ML2430A native mode ranges; that is, HP 436 range 5 sets
to ML2430A range 1, and HP 436 range 4 to ML2430A range 2, etc.)
When the ML2430A is being used to emulate the HP 436, the ranges are
reversed; that is, HP 436 range 1 (the lowest power range) is equivalent to
the ML2430A range 5, and HP 436 range 5 (the highest power range) is
equivalent to the ML2430A range 1. Refer to page 4-6 for more information
on sensor ranges.
9 Auto range
Remarks: Sets the ML2430A Series to automatically select the correct range for the
measurement.

Remarks: Set units to Watts. Turn relative mode off and do not allow relative.
