F.W. Bell 5200 Series - SCPI Commands List

SCPI COMMANDS
In the following discussion, the commands are written such that the
short form of the command is written in UPPER CASE letters and the
remainder of the command is written in lower case letters.
Either form can be used.
If parameters are required, they will appear within <> brackets in this
document. Brackets are not part of the actual command string.
An <n> parameter is a single ASCII digit. <NRf> is usually a multiple
digit number. The meter supports a subset of the available SCPI
commands. However, there ar
e some functions that are not
supported with standard SCPI commands. In these cases, these
special commands are patterned after other SCPI commands that are
similar in function.
