Model 5344S
Operation and Programming
START
SR (FA)
Sets the 5344S to START/STOP mode. The 5344A enters and displays the START frequency. SR
and FA are identical . FA is provided for conversion of 8350A programs.
STOP
SP (FB)
Sets the 5344S START/STOP mode. The 5344S enters and displays the STOP frequency. SP and FB
are identical. FB is provided for conversion of 8350A programs.
VALUE:
The value for START and STOP may be a simple number such as 10,25.98,1010.25, etc. The value
may also be a simple number plus an exponent, such as 10.79 E+9, 10 E-1, 26.5 E-2, etc. An
exponent plus a multiplier must fall within the 5344S range, such as 75.92 E-1 GZ = 7.592 GHz.
The START and STOP frequency range is 500 MHz to 18 GHz for the 5342A and 500 MHz to 26.5
GHz for the 5343A. If the 5344S is placed in Subharmonic Locking mode, the limit extends from
10 MHz to 99.999999999 GHz for both counters.
Only the first 11 digits are significant. Ail others are ignored. Only the first decimal point is
accepted as valid.
The SR (FA) and SP (FB) commands may be used together in one single command string or
placed on separate lines. The 5344S will enter the START/STOP mode upon receipt of either SR
(FA) or SP (FB). Either command may be changed without affecting the unspecified commands.
Sending any one of the commands without numerical values causes the 5344A to display that
parameter. The parameter remains unchanged.
