5  Command set description 

5.1  Commands 

The  functions  of  the  MSE  can  be  best  described  via  the  following 
categories: 

 

System commands  

 

Configuration commands  

 

Measurement commands  

 

User EEPROM commands  

 
The MSE uses SCPI like commands for control and measurement. These 
are  ASCII  based  commands  and  follow  specific  rules  regarding  syntax. 
Although the MSE uses SCPI like commands, they deviate from the SCPI 
standard. 

5.2  Command structure  

Every  command  starts  with  a  c

olon  “:”,  which  identifies  the  root  of  the 

command tree. Each further keyword is also separated by a colon. In case 
parameters  need  to  be  specified,  the  last  keyword  and  parameters  are 
separated by a single space character. In case more than one parameter 
needs to be specified, the parameters need to be separated by a comma.  

The command tables show commands in long and short format. The short 
format is specified by upper case characters. It is allowed to use long and 
short  format  or  a  mixed  format.  Optional  keywords  are  shown  between 
brackets  [...].  Commands  are  not  case  sensitive,  so  it  is  allowed  to  use 
both or a mix of upper and lower case. The command structure is valid for 
all communication interfaces of the MSE. It is recommended to terminate a 
comman

d by a newline character “\n”.

:SENSe: INT 50000  

:sens:int 500000  
:sense:int 500000  
:SENS:INT 500000  
:SENSE:INT 500000  

Sets the integration 
time of the MSE 

:MEASure:XYZ  

:measure:XYZ 0  
:measure:xyz 0  
:meas:XYZ 0  
:MEASure:XYZ 0  

The measure 
commands use the 
averaging and gain 
options  

:SAMPle:Y 

:sample:Y 
:sample:y 
:samp:Y 
:SAMPle:Y 

With the sample 
command, the MSE 
colorimeter will 
perform fast sampling 
to its internal memory. 
Results are read from 
the memory after the 
measurement has 
been performed
