The Command Syntax subsection also describes the result of each command, and
provides examples of how you might use it. The Command Groups subsection,
which begins on page 2–13, provides a command list by functional area. The
Command Descriptions subsection, which begins on page 2–25, arranges
commands alphabetically. Figure 1–2 illustrates the two kinds of command lists.

The program may request information from the waveform generator. The
waveform generator provides information in the form of status and error
messages. Figure 1–3 on page 1–3 illustrates the basic operation of this system.
The Status and Events Reporting subsection, which begins on page 3–1,
describes how to use the status reporting functions that conform to SCPI and
IEEE–488.2 in your programs.
