Section 8: TSP command reference
Model DMM7510 7½ Digit Graphical Sampling Multimeter Reference Manual
8-356
DMM7510-901-01 Rev. B / May 2015
Details
This command sends a command string to the remote instrument. A termination is added to the
command string when it is sent to the remote instrument (
tspnet.termination()
). You can also
specify a format string, which causes the command to wait for a response from the remote
instrument. The Model DMM7510 decodes the response message according to the format specified
in the format string and returns the message as return values from the function (see
tspnet.read()
for format specifiers).
When this command is sent to a TSP-enabled instrument, the Model DMM7510 suspends operation
until a timeout error is generated or until the instrument responds. The TSP prompt from the remote
instrument is read and discarded. The Model DMM7510 places any remotely generated errors and
events into its event queue. When the optional format string is not specified, this command is
equivalent to
tspnet.write()
, except that a termination is automatically added to the end of the
command.
Example 1
tspnet.execute(instrumentID, "runScript()")

device to run a script
named
runScript
.
Example 2
tspnet.termination(instrumentID, tspnet.TERM_CRLF)
tspnet.execute(instrumentID, "*idn?")
print("tspnet.execute returns:", tspnet.read(instrumentID))
Print the
*idn?
string from
the remote device.
