Device-dependent commands
The following list describes the features of the device-dependent mnemonics for the instrument
together with simple examples of their use within each major section (Carrier frequency, RF level,
etc.) The root mnemonic is listed first followed by the lower level mnemonics. Each group is
followed by a list of requirements for data type and suffix.
In addition to the normal listen commands the instrument accepts query commands which cause it
to prepare a message which will be sent to the controller when the instrument is next addressed to
talk. For each query an example of a response is given. Where responses are similar for a group
of queries not all are listed. Some queries can produce more than one type of response
− an
example of each is usually given.
In the list which follows, the abbreviations <char>, <nrf> and <str> have the following meanings:
<char> = Character Program Data
<nrf> = Decimal Numeric Program Data
<str> = String Program Data
Where the data format is Decimal Numeric Program Data, the value may be expressed as a signed
or unsigned number in any of the following formats:
nr1: Decimal integer: for example, 1234 or
−567
nr2: Floating point number: for example, 1.234 or
−56.789
nr3: Floating point number with exponent: for example, 1.2345E5 or
−12.47E−8
