10
under the AA root path is accessed.
This command can also send multiple commands at the same time, separating the
commands with semicolons (()).
For example: []aa:bb:ee; FF; GG represents EE, FF, gg. under BB.
[:]aa:bb:ff:: aa:dd:hh represents hh. under FF and DD under BB access.
There are two types of mnemonic characters in SCPI language, that is, keywords, long
format and short format. Short format is actually abbreviation for long format.
The short format mnemonic is composed of the first 4 characters of the long format
mnemonic. If the length of the long format mnemonic character is less than or equal to 4,
the length mnemonic is the same.
* if the length of the long mnemonic is greater than 4 and the fourth character is vowel, the
short mnemonic will discard fourth characters and turn the vowel into 3 characters.
For example, the short mnemonic of ERR or is ERR, not ERRO..
Some commands need parameters, such as set value command. At this point, a space
between the command and its first parameter is required (ASCII code is 32).
For example, set the voltage value command [:]volt 12
There is a space between the parameters 12 and the volt command (ASCII code is 32).
The command set of SCPI is not sensitive to case, that is, the command is not case
sensitive, and each command has a terminator for the EOI: instruction to end <LF> (which
means ASCII code character 'n' ', that is, ASCII code line break, decimal 10, sixteen binary
0A).
Note: all the following instructions need to be added to the end of the instruction. The
square brackets [<lf>.] below indicate that the string can be written in the command or not.
6.2 MPS-3600H Power command set
6.2.1 basic command (ieee-488.2 common command set)
This command includes general functions defined in the ieee488.2 standard, which are
usually applicable to measuring instruments that support the ieee488.2 standard. This
command is started with asterisk (*) without hierarchical structure.
Command *idn?
This command can read the relevant information of the power supply, such as
manufacturer, product type, product serial number, firmware version number.
6.2.2 System command
The commands in this section are all commands under []SYSTem root path. The commands
given are all in a short mnemonic format.
Order []SYSTem:ERRor:?
This command is used to read the error code and error message of the power supply.
Return command: error code, error message
Example: send the command to [:]
SYST:ERR?
<LF>
