Question
How can we do a remote setup of the screen for all four S-parameters?
All four S-parameter remote set up
Answer
This is the SCPI command sequence. It works for the ZVA and the ZVB. The ZVL does not have the command "CALC1:DATA:ALL? SDAT" to read all traces at once. Otherwise, everything else works for the ZVL, too.
ZVB: *RST
ZVB: *CLS
ZVB: SYSTEM:DISPLAY:UPDATE ON
ZVB: *IDN?

; set screen for S11
ZVB: CALCulate1:PARameter:SDEFine 'TRC1', 'S11'
ZVB: CALCulate1:FORMat SMITH
ZVB: DISPlay:WINDow1:STATe ON
ZVB: DISPlay:WINDow1:TRACe:FEED 'TRC1'
;------------------------------
; set screen for S12
ZVB: CALCulate1:PARameter:SDEFine 'TRC2', 'S12'
ZVB: CALCulate1:FORMat MLOG

ZVB: DISPlay:WINDow2:TRACe:FEED 'TRC2'

; set screen for S21
ZVB: CALCulate1:PARameter:SDEFine 'TRC3', 'S21'
ZVB: CALCulate1:FORMat MLOG
ZVB: DISPlay:WINDow3:STATe ON
ZVB: DISPlay:WINDow3:TRACe:FEED 'TRC3'

; set screen for S22

;------------------------------
; set to single sweep and perform a measurement
ZVB: INIT:CONT OFF
ZVB: INIT
ZVB: *OPC?
;------------------------------
; Read trace 1 S11
ZVB: CALC1:PAR:SEL 'TRC1'
ZVB: CALC1:DATA? SDAT
; Read trace 2 S12
ZVB: CALC1:PAR:SEL 'TRC2'
ZVB: CALC1:DATA? SDAT
; Read trace 3 S21
ZVB: CALC1:PAR:SEL 'TRC3'
ZVB: CALC1:DATA? SDAT
; Read trace 4 S22
ZVB: CALC1:PAR:SEL 'TRC4'
ZVB: CALC1:DATA? SDAT
;------------------------------
;------------------------------
; Or read all traces at once
ZVB: CALC1:DATA:ALL? SDAT

ZVB: SYSTEM:ERROR?
