Series
Moving Among Subsystems
In order to combine commands from different subsystems, you need to be able to restore the active
path to the root. You do this with the root specifier (:). For example, you could set the output voltage
to 60 V and set the display mode to power.
VOLT
60
DISP:MODE
3
Because the root specifier resets the command parser to the root, you can use the root specifier and
do the same thing in one message:
VOLT 60;:DISP:MODE 3
Including Common Commands
You can combine common commands with system commands in the same message. Treat the
common command as a message unit by separating it with a semicolon (the message unit
separator). Common commands do not affect the active header path; you may insert them anywhere
in the message.
