Command Types
Multimeter Command Reference
The root command
SENSe
is an implied command. For example, to set the
multimeter's function to AC volts, you can send either of the following command
statements:
SENS:FUNC “VOLT:AC”
or
FUNC “VOLT:AC”
Parameters
Parameter Types.
The following table contains explanations and examples of
parameter types you might see later in this chapter.
Optional Parameters
. Parameters shown within square brackets (
[ ]
) are
optional parameters. (Note that the brackets are not part of the command; do
not send them to the instrument.) If you do not specify a value for an optional
parameter, the instrument chooses a default value. For example, consider the
TRIGger:COUNt? [MIN|MAX]
command. If you send the command without
specifying a
MINimum
or
MAXimum
parameter, the present
TRIGger:COUNt
value
is returned. If you send the
MIN
parameter, the command returns the minimum
trigger count allowable. If you send the
MAX
parameter, the command returns
the maximum trigger count allowable. Be sure to place a space between the
command and the parameter.

Explanations and Examples
Numeric
Accepts all commonly used decimal representations of
number including optional signs, decimal points, and scientific
notation.
123, 123E2, -123, -1.23E2, .123, 1.23E-2, 1.23000E-01.
Special cases include MINimum, MAXimum, and DEFault.
Boolean
Represents a single binary condition that is either true or
false.
ON, OFF, 1, 0
Discrete
Selects from a finite number of values. These parameters use
mnemonics to represent each valid setting.
An example is the TRIGger:SOURce <
source
> command
where
source
can be BUS, EXT, or IMM.
