List Available
Applications
:SYSTem:APPLication:APPLications?
This command returns a comma-separated list of all applications that can be launched in
addition to any applications currently running.
If an existing application is using a particular interface, then all other applications that use
that interface type will be unavailable unless another suitable interface is available. For
example, if a 10/100/1000M electrical Ethernet application is using the only Ethernet port,
all other 10/100/1000M Ethernet applications will be unavailable and therefore will not show
up in this query. To determine the full list of applications a unit supports, query this
command when no other applications are running.
Example:
> :SYSTem:APPLication:APPLications?
TermDs1Bert,ThruDs1Bert,SingleMonDs1Bert,...
For units that have multiple ports, this query can also be given additional parameters to
request the applications that are available to a specific port. The first parameter is reserved
for internal use; use the value "none". The second parameter specifies the port to query: 1
or 2.
Example:
> :SYSTem:APPLication:APPLications? none 2
MonEth10ML2Traffic,TermEth10ML2Loopback,...
List Currently
Running Applications
:SYSTem:APPLication:CAPPlications?
This command returns a comma-separated list of the unique identifiers for all currently
running applications. The return values returned from this query may be used to select an
application (using the :SYSTem:APPLication:SELect command).
Example:
> :SYSTem:APPLication:CAPPlications?
TermStm16Au4Vc4E4Bert_121,TermStm64Au4Vc4E4Bert_121
Launch an
Application
:SYSTem:APPLication:LAUNch <application name> [port]
This command will launch the specified application. This operation is different from normal
GUI interaction in that the application will be launched in addition to any existing applica-
tions; it will not replace the currently running application. The port number on which to
launch the application (1 or 2) may be specified as an optional parameter if the unit has a
second port. If not specified, the default is the first available port. If no open ports are avail-
able, an error message will be stored (accessible with the :SYSTem:ERROR? command)
and no action will be taken.
