Command Structure
All commands are structured according to the SCPI specification, i.e. the upper-case letters indicate the
short form of the command; the CTS60 only accepts abbreviations in this short form (according to
SCPI), otherwise the long form is to be used.
Command Parameters
<value> denotes a character string from a list; only list entries are permissible.
<numeric_value> denotes a numeric value; MAXimum or MINimum can also be used unless stated
otherwise.
If <numeric_value> has a unit, supplying the unit is optional. If no unit is supplied the Base Unit will be
used. Unless stated otherwise the value is always returned in the Base Unit.

Error Recovery
If the value is invalid INV is returned instead of the value.
If the CTS60 is not in the right state to be able to carry out the command, SCPI error -221, "Settings
conflict" is generated. No value is returned in the case of queries.
The permitted state for a command is indicated in the following table in the column "state".
RESET Values
Unless otherwise specified, the values given in the column "Default:" are set on RESET (*RST) of the
CTS60.
