Command List
This section lists all commands and queries implemented in this instrument. The
commands are listed in alphabetical order within the function groups.
Note that there are no dependent parameters, coupled parameters, overlapping
commands, expression program data elements or compound command program headers;
each command is completely executed before the next command is started. All
commands are sequential and the operation complete message is generated immediately
after execution in all cases.
The following nomenclature is used:
<rmt> <RESPONSE MESSAGE TERMINATOR>
<cpd> <CHARACTER PROGRAM DATA>
, i.e. a short mnemonic or string such as
ON
or
OFF
.
<nrf> A number in any format. e.g. 12, 12.00, 1.2 e 1 and 120 e
−
1 are all accepted as
the number 12. Any number, when received, is converted to the required
precision consistent with the use then rounded up to obtain the value of the
command.
<nr1>
A number with no fractional part, i.e. an integer.
[…]
Any item(s) enclosed in these brackets are optional parameters. If more than
one item is enclosed then all or none of the items are required.
The commands in the lists below which begin with an asterisk * are those specified by
IEEE Std. 488.2 as Common commands. All will function when used on the RS232
interface but some are of little use.
