The Agilent E1441A Function Generator and Arbitrary Waveform
Generator (FUNC/ARB WAVEFORM GEN) is a VXIbus C-size
message-based slave device.
Programming the Agilent E1441A can either be through a command
module using an GPIB interface or an embedded controller. In either
case you can use the Standard Commands for Programmable
Instruments (SCPI; See “Agilent E1441A SCPI Command Reference”
on page 65.) with the Standard Instrument Control Language (SICL).
A VXIplug&play driver is supplied on a CD Rom with the Agilent
E1441A. All documentation for the use of this driver is contained
on-line.
Option 001 provides a ±1 ppm timebase which gives 10 times the
frequency stability of the standard timebase. It also provides you the
ability to control phase offset.
