This example shows the following:
The ROUTE command keyword is optional, since it is
enclosed in square braces
The ROUTE command keyword may be specified as ROUTE
(long form) or as ROUT (short form), since the last character
is displayed in lower-case
The CLOSE keyword must be followed by a <channel list>. A
<channel list> represents any of a number of possible
channels in a variety of formats. The format for the <channel
list> and other command parameters are described in
Chapter 5: SCPI COMMAND BASICS
.
Since the ROUTE keyword is optional, and the CLOSE
keyword is shown indented from the ROUTE keyword, valid
commands consist of:
ROUTE:CLOSE
CLOSE
The command ROUTE:OPEN:ALL is a command only.
Therefore, the command ROUTE:OPEN:ALL? is not allowed.
Since they are NOT shown as command-only, the commands
ROUTE:CLOSE? and ROUTE:OPEN? are valid commands.
Table 6-1
contains a synopsis of the commands implemented by
the 1257. The maximum and minimum values and resolution are
shown for numeric parameters. The commands marked with an
asterisk (*) are NOT defined in the SCPI language. These
commands follow the SCPI syntax rules for implementing the
operation of the command.
