then the path definition in effect when the INCLUDE command was
defined is used. For the example shown then, channel 0 on
module 5 and channel 0 on module 7 are affected; channel 17 on
module 6 and channel 23 on module 8 are NOT affected.
Removing Path Names
The PATH:DELETE command may be used to delete a single path
name from the list of known path names. The PATH:DELETE:ALL
command may be used to remove all presently defined path
names.
The syntax for these commands is:
[:ROUTe]
:PATH
:DELete
<path
name>
:ALL
The following examples illustrate the use of this command.
Removes the name “path1”:
ROUTE:PATH path1
Removes the name “testit”:
PATH:DEL testit
Removes all path names:
PATH:DEL:ALL
Reading the Presently
Defined Path Names
The PATH:CATALOG? command may be used to read back all of
the presently defined path names. The format for this command is:
[:ROUTe]
:PATH
:CATalog?
The reply to this command consists of the presently defined path
names, each of which is separated by a comma. Path names are
stored internally in upper-case characters by the 1256. These
upper-case names are returned in the reply.
For example, suppose the following commands have been
executed:
PATH:DEFINE dmm_2_pin1,(@1(117),2(17))
