Hi to all!
I have a question regarding programming with MET/CAL and communicating with the Wavetek 9500 calibrator.
We are using the 5.11 version of MET/CAL and we are trying to write a procedure for the calibration of the 9500. The problem is, that when a querie is sent to the 9500, unexpected SRQs occur.
To be more specific: even sending the simplest query, for example the *IDN? command, will result a message like this (not when the query is send, but when we use the command to read the response): "E2109: unexpected SRQ (boad=0, IEEE-488 address=10, status byte=96)"
(10 is the address of the 9500).
If I press "advance" (in the editor run-time mode), the procedure continues and the response is actually read. But this is no solution of cource and moreover the procedure needs continuous user intervention.
I am also convinced that this behaviour has to do with the 9500 GPIB implementation.
Does anyone have some tip or comment on that?
(other commands, that do not cause a response from the 9500 are normally executed).
