Common Commands
Standard commands used by most devices. These commands
always begin with an "*". For example
*IDN?
tells the calibrator to return its identification.
Query Commands
Commands that ask for information. They always end with a "?". For
example:
FUNC?
Returns the current modes of the upper and lower displays.
Compound Commands
Commands that contain more than one command on one line. For
example:
LOWER_MEAS RTD; RTD_TYPE CU10
Sets the calibrator to measure RTD in the lower display and sets
RTD type to Cu 10.
Overlapped Commands
Commands that require more time to execute than normal. The
command *WAI can be used after the overlapped command to tell
the calibrator to wait until the command finishes before executing the
next command. For example:
TRIG; *WAI
Triggers the pulse train. Once the pulse train has been triggered, the
calibrator can proceed to the next command.
Sequential Commands
Commands that are executed immediately after the are entered. This
type includes most of the commands.
7.3-2 Character Processing
The data entered into the calibrator is processed as follows:
• ASCII characters are discarded if their decimal equivalent is less
than 32 (space), except 10 (LF) and 13 (CR):
• Data is taken as 7-bit ASCII
