Basic pulse commands
Table 5-1 summarizes the commands to perform pulse-measure operations. See Section 18
for more information on using these commands.
Ignored settings and invalid commands
When in the Pulse Mode, there are SCPI commands whose settings are ignored, or are
invalid causing error +831 (Invalid in Pulse Mode). The affected commands are covered in
“Pulse-measure considerations,” page 5-16 .
