HP 54620A Programmer's Guide

Combining commands from the same subsystem
To execute more than one function within the same subsystem a semi-colon
(;) is used to separate the functions:
:<subsystem>:<function><separator><data>;
<function><separator><data><terminator>
(For example :TIMebase:REFerence LEFT;VERNier ON)
Duplicate mnemonics
Identical function mnemonics can be used for more than one subsystem. For
example, the function mnemonic DELAY may be used to set the trigger delay
or measure channel-to-channel delay:
:TIMEBASE:DELAY 30 US
sets the trigger delay to 30
µ
s.
:MEASURE:DELAY
measures the delay betwen predefined start and end channels (see
:MEASure:DEFine:DELay).
:TIMebase and :MEASure are subsystem selectors and determine which
meaning of DELAY is used.
