SCPI Command Listings
The Table of Contents lists the Standard Commands for Programmable Instruments (SCPI) without
the parameters. The SCPI subsystem name will generally have the first part of the command in
parenthesis that is repeated in all commands within the subsystem. The title(s) beneath the
subsystem name is the remaining command syntax. The following example demonstrates this listing:
Communication Subsystem (:SYSTem:COMMunicate)
:LAN:IP
:LAN:SUBNet
The following examples show the complete commands from the above Table of Contents listing:
:SYSTem:COMMunicate:LAN:IP
:SYSTem:COMMunicate:LAN:SUBNet
Key and Data Field Cross Reference
The index is set up so applicable key and data field names can be cross-referenced to the
appropriate SCPI command. There are two headings in the index where the key and data field names
can be found:
• individual softkey, hardkey, or data field name (i.e. To look up the communication subsystem topic
on Default Gateway softkey refer to Default Gateway softkey.)
• subsystem name (i.e. To look for the Default Gateway softkey (in the Communication Subsystem),
refer to the heading labeled: “communication subsystem keys”.)
Supported Field
Within each command section, the “Supported” heading describes which signal generator
configurations are supported by the SCPI command. When “All Models” is shown next to this
heading, all signal generator configurations are supported by the SCPI command. When “All with
Option xxx” is shown next to this heading, only the stated option(s) is supported.
