Keithley 2182, User Manual, Page: 308 / 339

Introduction
The IEEE-488.2 standard requires specific information about how the Model 2182
implements the standard. Paragraph 4.9 of the IEEE-488.2 standard (Std 488.2-1987) lists the
documentation requirements.
Table G-1 provides a summary of the requirements and provides
the information or references the manual for that information. Table G-2 lists the coupled
commands used by the Model 2182.
The Model 2182 complies with SCPI version 1991.0. Table 14-2 through Table 14-11 list the
SCPI confirmed commands and the non-SCPI commands implemented by the Model 2182.
