EADS North America Test and Services SCPI Command Basics 5-31
Reading the Module
Address for a
Module Name
The module address associated with a module name may be read
using the MODULE:DEFINE? query. The syntax for this
command
is:
[:ROUTe]
:MODule
:DEFine?
<module
name>
Using the example in the previous section of this manual, the
query:
MODULE:DEFINE? matrix
returns the reply:
2
Storing the Module
Names in Non-
Volatile Memory
All module names presently defined may be prepared for storage
in non-volatile memory using the MODULE:SAVE command. The
actual process of updating non-volatile memory for this command
requires a separate SYSTEM:NVUPD command. This allows
multiple relay states, exclude lists, include lists, and module names
to be updated in rapid succession, followed by a single, slower
update of the actual non-volatile memory.
All module names stored in non-volatile memory may be recalled
from non-volatile memory using the MODULE:RECALL command
.
The syntax for these commands is shown below:
[:ROUTe]
:MODule
:SAVe
:RECall
These commands are NOT defined in the SCPI standard. These
commands follow the syntax rules of SCPI to implement this
functionality.
