TDS3000, TDS3000B, and TDS3000C Series Programmer Manual
Clearing the Oscilloscope Output Queue
You can clear the Output Queue and reset the oscilloscope to accept a new
command or query by using the Device Clear (DCL) GPIB interface command.
Command Entry
The following rules apply:
H
You can enter commands in upper or lower case.
H
You can precede any command with white space characters. White space
characters include any combination of the ASCII control characters 00
through 09 and 0B through 20 hexadecimal (0 through 9 and 11 through 32
decimal).
H
The oscilloscope ignores commands consisting of any combination of white
space characters and line feeds.
You can abbreviate many oscilloscope commands. Each command listing in the
Commands
section shows the minimum acceptable abbreviations in capitals. For
example, you can enter the command
ACQuire:NUMAVg
simply as
ACQ:NUMAV
or
acq:numav
.
NOTE
. Keep in mind that abbreviation rules change over time as new TDS
models are introduced. Thus, for the most robust code, use the full spelling.
Avoid using the command abbreviations.
If you use the
HEADer
command to have command headers included as part of
query responses, you can further control whether the returned headers are
abbreviated or are full-length. The
VERBose
command lets you control this.
You can concatenate any combination of set commands and queries using a
semicolon (;). The oscilloscope executes concatenated commands in the order
received.
When concatenating commands and queries, you must follow these rules:
1.
Separate completely different headers by a semicolon and by the beginning
colon on all commands but the first. For example, the commands
TRIG-
ger:MODe NORMal
and
ACQuire:NUMAVg 10
would be concatenated into a
single command:
TRIGger:MODe NORMal;:ACQuire:NUMAVg 10
