Commands
The 3152B is a modern and updated version of the Model 3152A
employing the latest technology and component improvements.
Although 100% backwards compatibility was the basis for the new
3152B design, some of the 3152A functionality could not be
duplicated exactly. Table 5-1 lists all of the 3152B SCPI commands
and highlights the areas where it differs from the original 3152A
design. Expect that commands that are not compatible with the old
3152A will generate errors.
