Transfer trace data from the intrument - Anritsu MS2721B Spectrum Master

HI all,
I would like to solicit some helpful hints from you.
I am trying to transfer trace data from an Anritsu MS2721B spectrum master using the TRACE command. I have configured the instrument to run in a continuous sweep mode.
Using the Visa Interactive Control I am sending the following viWrite command to the instrument ":TRACe?\n"
viRead returns some alphanumeric characters which unfortunately I have been unable to decipher. The returned information looks something like this:
#42204\xe0\xcd\xfe\xff\xac\xcc\xfe\xff\x18\xc9\xfe\xff\xe8\xc4\xfe\xff\x8c\xc8\xfe\xffD\xd1\xfe\xffd\xd5\xfe\xffL\xc9\xfe\xff\x94\xc4\xfe\xff\x9c\xca\xfe\xff\xd8\xc5\xfe\ ...
From the user's guide I am able to understand that the first #4 means that a 4-digit length info will follow. The 4-digit length info is the next 4 byte characters -- "2204", means that the actual data block 2204 bytes will follow. 
I would just like to know how to decipher the data block? I have tried the command several times but I keep getting the same ASCII header with the same the number of data bytes i.e. 2204 but different alphanumeric characters in the subsequent data block.
I have tried by sending different format commands to the instrument before sending the TRACe query command like :FORMatATA INTeger,32 or :FORMatATA REAL,32 with no success.
When I run the ":TRACeREamble?\n" the trace header information is returned without problems.
I will be grateful if I can get any helpful hints.

Hi Tomohide Tsukasaki san,
Thank you very much for your helpful suggestion.
I did manage to read the trace data from the instrument. Unfortunately, I was not giving enough time between the write command sent to the instrument and reading the data from the instrument. I discovered that the sweep takes several tens of seconds to finish. If I wait for about 50 ~ 60 seconds between the write and read command, I get the correct trace data.
Thank you all and sorry for any inconveniences caused.

  • HT1296 I bought my wife a new Ipad 3. How do I transfer her data from the old Ipad 1 to the new one?

    I bought my wife a new Ipad 3. How do I transfer her data from the old Ipad 1 to the new one?

    Sync the old one, and get a full back up stored.  Make sure you transfer your purchases to I tunes, and make sure you upload any photos taken on the pad, or imported thru the cck.
    Then plug the new pad in, and set it up from the backup of the old one.  In theory, all the stuff that was in the back up will migrate to the new pad.  If apps, music or books get lost, you can redownload them for free, using the same appLe id.  
    If you are selling or gifting the old one,   When you are done and happy with the new set up,  go to setting, general, reset, reset all content and data.  This will place the pad in factory new condition.   Lastly, if it is a 3 g pad, especially if it a Verizon pad, make sure to cancel the plan

  • Transfer all data from blackberry bold 9780 to iPhone 5

    I have a iPhone 5 16 GB recently purchased, I need to transfer all data from the Black Berry Bold.
    I need all contacts, documents, pics, E-Mail set-up etc. basically everything.
    I need a seamless transition from one to the other. I have not even opened up the iPhone box yet.
    Does anyone have a simple easy way to do this?
    Only thing I have to work with is the iPad!
    Was thinking of iCloud but have no Wi-Fi connection here.
    Please help?

    If anyone is still struggling with this problem for the iphone 5 I just figured out how to fix it! it wasn’t easy because google sync doesn’t work on a blackberry anymore and outlook doesn’t help if you don’t got it so I had to go the long way and spend 2hrs of my time figuring it out while the actual solution only takes 5 mins!
    So I downloaded an app called "Phone to Phone transfer" there’s other apps like this one but this is the only one that’s available on both blackberry and iOS so its the one I used and it worked, read: 3 steps to transfer all contacts from BlackBerry to iPhone 5
    1) Download the app on your blackberry and sign-up for an account i used an email i barely use and its free so it was all quick and easy
    2) Sync your contacts on your blackberry using the app
    3) Download the same app this time on your iPhone and use the same log-in details as you used when you signed up on your blackberry
    4) Sync contacts again and press download and... that’s it! all your contacts are now on your new iPhone.

    - Transfer iTunes purchases by:

    - To transfer other music you need a third-party program like one of those discussed here:
    Copy music from Ipod to new computer...: Apple Support Communities
    - Connect the iPod to the computer and make a backup by right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and select Back Up.
    - Restore the iPod from that backup

    The Apple techs are looking. But they can't find it. Nor can they find a back up on my laptop, Evidently when I backed up my Iphone to computer the calendar wasn't syncing. Since I only use the calander on my phone - I never noticed.
    The Apple store rep that sold me the I-Phone 5 on Monday, was transferring my contacts and calendar thru I-Cloud (I never used I-Cloud before that moment - and always had it turned off). He successfully transferred the contacts - which are still on my phone), but the Calendar weirdly split into 6 calendars (2 of which were linked to my G-Mail which only had a few entries) (4 were linked to my MSN / Hotmail email and contained all the major events/data). I never created calendars that were separate or liked them to 2 different emails. I just typed entries into the I-Phone calendar. However, the calendar did exist on the new I-Phone for 24 hours. Something happened during transfer. When the Apple Genius Bar tech was attempting to back up my Calendar & merge the 6 calendars, everything disappeared in his hand while he was looking at it.
    I am hoping that some really good data recovery expert exists that can restore the calendar that was in both I-Phones yesterday. It is completely devastating if I can't recover it.
    Any help, or referrals, is great appreciated!!!!
    Thanks!

    Transferring your prepaid cellular data account depends on your carrier. AT&T lets you move it yourself when you go to Cellular Data in Settings and log into your account with your previous AT&T user name and password. For iPads with Sprint service, you can set up an account on the new iPad and contact Sprint Customer Care (888-211-4727 and go through the menus) to deactivate the old plan and get credit for unused service. For Verizon, call the company’s customer service number for mobile broadband support (800-786-8419) and ask to have your account transferred.

    They only thing I can assume is that my external hard drive was slow to start and iTunes defaulted to its old directory (see the last paragraph at the link above). However, once my external was recognized shouldn't everything have fixed itself?

    Dec 26, 2013 8:04 PM (in response to OGELTHORPE)
    But the newest Mac notebooks do not have a firewire port.
    So he may need a TB to FW adapter, $29, a FW 400 or 800 cable, $??, and then a FW 400 to 800 cable/port adapter (If the old Mac only has a FW 400 port), $??.
    It is unknown if the old Mac has a FW 400 or 800 port.

  • Transfer data from the PO to the invoice header data in MIRO (user exits)

    Hi.
    We are trying to transfer some basic information from the PO to the invoice header data by the time we process the logistic invoice verification (transaction MIRO).
    The information we want to transfer is:
    1.     PO Text (screen field DRSEG-TXZ01) -
    > should be transferred to Header text field (screen field INVFO-SGTXT) located in the tab u2018Basic Datau2019.
    2.     Purchasing Document Number (screen field DRSEG-EBELN) -
    > should be transferred to Assignment field (screen field INVFO-ZUONR) located in tab u2018Detailsu2019.
    The exits we had listed for this tasks are:
    EXIT_SAPLMR1M_002: Change Proposed Account Assignment
    EXIT_SAPLMR1M_003: Pass On Document Header Data
    EXIT_SAPLMR1M_004: Change the Withholding Tax- and Split Table
    EXIT_SAPLMRMP_010: Analyze Document Header and Item Data
    The second one, EXIT_SAPLMR1M_003, should have stopped at by the time we processed the information, but it didnu2019t.
    Iu2019ve heard EXIT_SAPLMRMP_010 would no longer be functional from version 4.6c.
    Users enter the information in MIRO following this chronological order:
    1.Invoice date
    2.Reference
    3.Purchase order number ---> operation which u201Ccallsu201D the PO to the screen.
    4.Amount
    5.Flag u201Ccalculate taxu201D field (if mandatory)
    6.Tax on sales/purchases code (if mandatory)
    And then they post. Thatu2019s all.
    Weu2019ve tried to get this data from the time we u201Ccallu201D the PO to the screen, just to see if we can get it before we saved the document, and we werenu2019t capable of doing it. The second option is to get the data right after we process the document (post it), so weu2019ve reached bapi INVOICE_UPDATE but we cannot locate the exact place to put the references to the dynpro (although, weu2019re not 100% sure if this bapi would solve the problem).
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Sunil.
    Function MRM_INVOICE_CHECK doesn't exist in system 4.6c. Also I've searched for it in ECC 5 and I got the same result. Are you sure about the name of the function?
    From the function group MRMC, I found this:
    MRM_BADI_INVOICE_CHECK    
    MRM_DUPLICATE_INVOICE_CHECK
    I haven't still check them. But for what I know, the second one (...DUPLICATE...) processes a control to avoid a double entry of the invoice, I not sure it will work. I'll let you know.
    Thanks for answering.

  • What is the best way to transfer my date from my old iMac to my new iMac?

    what is the best way to transfer my date from my old iMac to my new iMac? I don't have a time capsule, so I cannot use time machine.
    thanks

    Your best bet by far is to use Setup Assistant when the new Mac first starts up to transfer directly from the old one. 
    It's similar to Migration Assistant, but doing it that way will avoid having an extra user account.
    Either way, you can connect them via FireWire, Thunderbolt, or your network, but avoid wireless if at all possible.  You can connect both to your netwrork via Ethernet, or put a single cable between the two. 
    See Using Setup Assistant on Mountain Lion or Lion for details.
