10-2 SCPI Command Reference Models 2510 and 2510-AT User’s Manual
Reference tables
The SCPI commands that control the Model 2510 are summarized in the table below,
which lists the various subsystems and reference tables.
General notes:
• Brackets ([ ]) are used to denote optional character sets. These optional characters
need not be included in the program message. Also, do not include brackets in pro-
gram messages.
• Angle brackets (< >) are used to indicate parameter type. Do not use angle brackets
in the program message.
• The Boolean parameter (<b>) is used to enable or disable an instrument operation.
ON or 1 enables the operation, and OFF or 0 disables the operation.
• Upper-case characters indicate the short-form version for each command word.
• Default parameter: Listed parameters are both *RST and :SYSTem:PRESet
defaults unless otherwise noted.
• SCPI: A check mark (✓) indicates that the command and its parameters are SCPI
confirmed. An unmarked command indicates that it is a SCPI command but does
not conform to the SCPI standard of set commands, and it is not a command recog-
nized by the SCPI consortium. SCPI commands that use one or more non-SCPI
parameters are explained by notes.
• See “Programming syntax,” page 6-12, for more information.
