SCPI Command Hierarchy
SCPI is an ASCII-based command language designed for use in
test and measurement equipment. The command structure is
organized around common roots, or nodes, which are the building
blocks of SCPI subsystems. An example of a common root is
CALibration, and some of the commands that reside in the
CALibration subsystem are:
[:]CALibration
[:OUTPut]
[:VOLTage]
[:DATA] <NR1>
:CURRent
[:DATA] <NR1>
CALibration is the root keyword of the command. OUTPut is a
second-level keyword, and VOLTage and DATA are third-level
keywords. A colon (:) is used to separate a command keyword
from a lower-level keyword.
