Example 2:
OUTPUT 707;":TIMEBASE:REFERENCE CENTER ; DELAY 0.00001"
or
OUTPUT 707;":TIMEBASE:REFERENCE CENTER"
OUTPUT 707;":TIMEBASE:DELAY 0.00001"
In the first line of example 2, the “subsystem selector” is implied for the
DELAY command in the compound command. The DELAY command must be
in the same program message as the REFERENCE command because the
program message terminator places the parser back at the root of the
command tree.
A second way to send these commands is by placing TIMEBASE: before the
DELAY command as shown in the second part of example 2.
Example 3:
OUTPUT 707;":TIMEBASE:REFERENCE CENTER ; :LCHANNEL:LABEL ’Q0’"
The leading colon before LCHANNEL tells the parser to go back to the root of
the command tree. The parser can then see the LCHANNEL:LABEL
command.
