Common commands
This section describes the general remote interface commands and common commands. Note that
although these commands are essentially the same as those defined by the IEEE Std 488.2 standard,
the Series 2280 does not strictly conform to that standard.
The general remote interface commands are commands that have the same general meaning,
regardless of the instrument you use them with (for example, DCL always clears the GPIB interface
and returns it to a known state).
The common commands perform operations such as reset, wait-to-continue, and status.
Common commands always begin with an asterisk ( * ) and may include one or more parameters.
The command keyword is separated from the first parameter by a blank space.
You can group command messages when you send them to the instrument. Use a semicolon to
separate multiple commands, as shown below:
*RST; *CLS; *ESE 32; *OPC?
