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”.

The measure
commands use the

:SAMPle:Y
:sample: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
