SCPI Conformance Information
The Product complies with IEEE-488.2 and SCPI (Standard Commands and
Programmable Interface) version 1999.0 with regards to standard commands,
syntax, and data formats.
Many commands have two forms: the command form and query form. The
command form changes a setting or performs an action. The query form, which
ends with a question mark ‘?’, returns data from the Product.
All commands are sequential. Execution of a command is immediate and

shown separated by ‘|’ are alternative values.
Some commands, as noted, may be password protected. The password must be
given with the command SYSTem:PASSword:CENable

password protected depending on the security setting.
Some commands, as noted, are only available in the 7109A-P and 6109A-P.
